I used to believe in 'mature relationships'. True, I had encountered them only in fiction, but what the heck. It seemed reasonable. I've long been getting reports from the front, however. Disturbing and disheartening reports. It seems that these mutual stroke-fests where people tend to one another's egos and sore backs and gonads in perfect respect and harmony, living their own full lives, feeling nothing beyond great warmth and affection, parting fondly as happy destiny sweeps them down different paths... well, apparently they just don't much exist. At least not for long. It seems that people are changable beasts, and generally either become more or less fond of a person over time, if they have much interaction. Most folks are dreadfully prone to forming attachments and habits in any case, especially to those in the general vicinity of which they experience orgasms. Sooner or later apparently, usually sooner, one party is going to fall in love or out of like, and it all goes down the tubes. *Sigh* I suppose I ought to have made the connection between the likelihood of such relationships and the quantity of mature, enlightened, emotionally and financially independant individuals available to form them. Another illusion shattered. Next week: Vaginal Orgasms and Santa Claus (just kidding, I can't recall believing in either)
