Instant intimacy is very often followed by desperate disillusion.

- May Sarton

 

 

We can become so emotionally charged by a person that we allow ourselves to be intimate before we know who that person really is.  When we give our bodies to another being, we are giving them a piece of our souls.  We might want to take the time to find out if they deserve it.  Sexual activity is not the only way to let someone know we like them.  Sharing information, supporting each other's goals, giving of our time and energy without expectations sends a much stronger message than sex.  We must take time to know the other person; understand what they want, where they are going and figure out if we want to be in the same place.  When we let down our hair too early in the game we are apt to end up with a messed up head.

I will choose time over intimacy.
