Enhancing Current Relationships or Preparing for New Love
What Defines a Loving Relationship? 1. Strong, mutual feelings of affection, respect and trust toward another person, as that arising from kinship or close friendship.
2. A strong sense of warmth and care for another person, accompanied by intimacy and sexual activity.
3. A love marriage is a marriage of two individuals based upon mutual love, friendship, attraction and commitment.
This is for those who are:
Single and not looking
Single and open to a relationship
Partnered/married and non-affectionate, non-sexual, 'roommates'
Partnered/married and affectionate, non-sexual
Partnered/married intimate and sexual
So, this is for EVERYONE! Whether single or partnered, a LOVING RELATIONSHIP is available to and attainable by everyone regardless of gender, sexual preference or current relationship status.
You will find information in this section on LOVING RELATIONSHIPS, to aid in your self-knowledge and that of your partner and your union in a wide variety of interviews and talks with expert counsellors and sexologists, seminars, quizzes, videos, podcasts, books, movies, quotes, affirmations, poetry and art.
We will explore self-love and loving partnerships between consenting adults. We will not be investigating dysfunctional and criminal sexual preferences such as rape, torture, bullying, violence, incest, paedophilia, abusive human sex/slave trafficking etc.

How Do I Love Thee?
Elizabeth Barrett Browning - 1806-1861 How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight For the ends of being and ideal grace. I love thee to the level of every day's Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light. I love thee freely, as men strive for right. I love thee purely, as they turn from praise. I love thee with the passion put to use In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith. I love thee with a love I seemed to lose With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose, I shall but love thee better after death.

On Marriage
Kahlil Gibran - 1883-1931 Then Almitra spoke again and said, And what of Marriage, master? And he answered saying: You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore. You shall be together when the white wings of death scatter your days. Ay, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God. But let there be spaces in your togetherness, And let the winds of the heavens dance between you. Love one another, but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. Fill each other’s cup but drink not from one cup. Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf. Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone, Even as the strings of the lute are alone though they quiver with the same music. Give your hearts, but not into each other’s keeping. For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts. And stand together yet not too near together: For the pillars of the temple stand apart, And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other’s shadow. |
