QOTD...
My hubby has a divorced friend and he changes girlfriends like most people change their socks. He was intimate with this one woman, and now he's shocked that she assumed that they had a relationship. My question is do men and women still view sex and love differently?

Complicated question, depends on so many variables. Everyone is unique. Old ideas are changing. But, a person who has sex without knowing their partner well enough to understand their definition of "relationship" should not be surprised if it was just sex. A man shocked that a woman doesn't want to feel like a hooker (did he pay her? no.) is a man clueless to the needs of women. IMO
Diane,
That's the same thing I said. No one wants to feel used. IMO the guy is a real jerk, he's over 30 and is behaving like a teenage boy who has just discovered girls.
Divorce can easily send men on a bruised ego spree - women should always be careful dating a recently divorced man - and vice-a-versa.
On a WAY other note - I thought you would just LOVE this rain:
Terrorist Fist Jab Gal, E.D. Hill, to leave Fox News Channel!!!!
Her contract was NOT renewed - maybe E.H. will replace E.D. since the only Fox requirement is how convincingly you can lie while reading a teleprompter.
Kelly,
If the price is right, I'd bet TLB will leave the View for Faux.
I agree with the too many variables. I don't think men and women view sex and love that differently, I think it's just a case of individual character and maturity level that is involved.
I think it's naive for a woman to have sex with a man that she obviously doesn't know that well and then assume they are in a relationship because they had sex.
Is it cool for the guy to just go around and have sex with people that he doesn't want anything more from? No, it's not. But why are women allowing themselves to be so disposable? That would be my question.
Rain-Some women may think intimacy is a step towards love. A relationship should be established and agreed upon by both parties before sex. Where do the guys stand on this question????
Wellll, coming from another girl, I'd have to say that any interaction on a personal basis is full of missed clues and misinterpretations. Being on the same page is not a given.
I agree with all the comments on this subject.
"But why are women allowing themselves to be so disposable? "
Excellent question.
I have no frickin clue. Been with same man for 33 years, since I was 18. I never sowed any wild oats...don't even know what they look like...ha
LOL! Lumina , I think we may be in the same boat.
Yes, I believe they do view sex differently.
I have a friend that had a boyfriend. He broke up with her. A week later, they had sex. She thought they were back together. He did not, and started dating someone else. She was very upset.
Generally speaking, I think a lot of guys feel sex is sex. I think women view sex as an expression of love and commitment.
