Yeah but even as a guy its hard to not get emotionally attached sometimes. Difficult to put it to words how and why it happens, it just does.

My questios for the OP, and this is not meant to be a slight at all, is how old are you and have you ever had a girlfriend? Because I think most of us that have at least have an understanding of this dynamic.

It don't think I can explain it.

When you care about someone, it is a really beautiful thing. I hope that you get to experience this at least once in life.

Although you claim to be joking, you are probably correct, since humans have different types of brains. Not everybody's brains are the same. Just like we don't all have the same exact body and face structure.

Emotions are chemical reactions in the brain. Maybe there's something wrong with your brain if you're detached during sex?
