Sex is just one ingredient used as flavoring. There is so much more about you and him/her which are more essential ingredients required to complete the dish. That is my $0.02, but no matter how many times I say this, many just don't understand my point.

The prevalent mentality is "He's too young, and will change views over time". No I wont, stop assuming I will shift to that mindset. Its insulting, TBH .

Adi, there are a lot of us who post here that already know what you stated and we agree with you.
Your point is actually understood by those who you think don't understand it is just something they do not want to acknowledge is true and they don't even want to acknowledge the possibility that it even could be true.

I know how frustrating it can be but once you click that little red X at the top and close the window all of this goes away and you step back into your real life knowing that you understand there is more to life, love, sharing and a relationship than sex. Honestly that is the only thing that matters in your life.

Seriously, sometimes I think if I'd be a good cat owner. I love petting cute little kitties and watching them grow . But pets are not allowed in any of the campus apartments, and most off campus residences .

CSD, can you describe how Walter grew up from the time he was a innocent little kitten, and how hard it was to take care of him.

OMGoodness, someone is complaining about a neighbor who has what appears to be a chronic cough.
In one of their responses they said "I'm not buying a cough isn't against a noise ordinance, noise is noise", unreal.

One of my roommates didn't move one of his things out of the walkway, and I hit my shins on a steel bar.

Sticking to your values is admirable, but you do have to understand that people know that you're coming from a position of never having been in a relationship or having had sex. So you can say all day long how you think you'd react to situations or how you think things should be, but the truth is you really don't know. This is a romantic relationships forum--people who've been there, done that don't want a lecture from someone whose experience is entirely theoretical..

Walter is not a kitten he is the dog. Cailleach and Suze are the cats.

Cats are pretty easy to me since they are like new born babies all the time, they sleep a good 16 - 20 hours of the day. You have to litter train them or take them outside for their potties, keep fresh water available, a few string toys and stuffed mice so they get exercise, a window for them to look out of is always a plus for them, and we do a combination of dry food and wet pouches.
Cats can be tricky as well though because they hide their pain or illness if they have something and they will hide it until it is almost too late to have them medically treated and they can recover. They can easily get urinary tract infections if you do not tend to the litter box daily. They also need to have flea, tick and worm medication monthly because even indoor cats can get fleas and ticks from you bringing on in on your clothing from the outside.

They can be fun but quite annoying, if you are lucky they are natural mousers like Suze is, Cailleach wasn't but Suze taught her how to hunt and catch mice.
They can be cuddly and the next minute flip you off with their tail.
Some cats are downright mean and hate most of humanity but there are others that absolutely adore everything about you.
They are curious and will get into anything and sleep anywhere they want and they love to hide.

Walter is a canine who loves & protects his family & home...

Well, there is no point getting practical when you have just not felt attraction at many levels for somebody. Admiring the whole picture takes lots of time, and setting aside time is my biggest roadblock to most things, especially when you don't have a career to be a reasonable provider.

Give me just 5 years, and I GUARANTEE YOU things will change. I just came out of mom's nest to a jungle far away, and want to stand my ground well as an individual before taking things next level. If I'm not comfortable with myself at a personal level, chances are I'll look freaky to women anyways. If I'm well composed and contended, things have a greater chance of ending well.

So all I can talk about is theory, because I'm not yet ready for it to happen practically. Thankfully, I've just joined a Hindu association at my university, and can talk with women in a more confident manner now.
