Today I want to talk about a moment during sex that many of you probably haven’t analyzed before: that is, the moment of initial physical mergence. Cause you see, a close divorcing girlfriend of mine recently took a new lover whose ‘entrance’ made her roll her eyes…with annoyance.
To use an analogy, his ongoing technique resembled a Samsung [...]

Recently my friend Sheila had the opportunity to go home with a lovely young man from a bar.

Laughing.
Making love.
Holding.
Pillow talking…
No, I’m not sitting here dreaming of falling in love again. I’m imagining what it would be like to experience a weekend of ‘love without attachment.’ And I wonder: Might they be a wonderful prescription for our restless/ hurting hearts after divorce?
