The alien concept of fuck buddies...

Had a small discussion with some friends over break today and someone brought up the issue of her needing to get laid. Then of course, we talked more about this...

To my surprise, this other girl also confessed to having had a fuck buddy at one point. How does this work? You sleep with someone and then walk away? No wait, that's a one night stand. With a fuck buddy, you're still that...buddies after. Ok, I was under the impression that girls always associate sex with emotions. At least that's the way it works for me. It would be awesome to be able to get laid without strings attached, but like I said. This concept is foreign to me...

While you're together, do you feel an attachment or do you not? Or do you not care?

Hmm, in class today we discussed a hypothetical scenario.

This lady having an affair after only 10 months of marriage. Get this. With her best friend's husband whom she has always fancied. All of a sudden, he began looking her way. So then she is in a dilemma.

While we were discussing the values we'd hold as counsellors, I couldn't help but think about marriage in general. Why would someone get hitched, why would anyone get hitched when...any day/ any time now the person of your dreams shows up?

What torture it would be if you got married and settled for someone, just months before you meet your soul-mate?

Do you guys remember Cast Away? Or was it 40 days and 40 nights? I'm not sure which...

But this couple that was truly and madly in love, something happenned to the guy, and the girl looked for him for ages and ages and ages. Until finally she gave up hope...

Then married someone else, had children, the whole nine yards.

A bit after that, the man she had thought to be dead showed up. In the rain, in her backyard, they had a reunion that was bliss...this is who she was meant to be with...she knew this and so did he...

Then what would one do?

I would be so torn. It would feel like I'd be dying inside every single day...

You can't very well leave your children...

I think it was with Helen Hunt in it? I don't remember now.
