Are you serious? Sex is just a physical act. Love is the feeling you have for your significant lover. When you are in love, sex becomes the expression of that love. If you are not in love, it's just an empty physical act.\n\n To Blue Blooded: why can't you love someone without having sex? Please explain.

Sex is okay, but somewhat empty without love. Lovemaking is AWESOME though!! When you make love with someone that you love, it is an experience of not just the body, but of the heart, mind and soul. It is complete. There is nothing like it in the world! =-)

love and sex are 2 different but so related things. Love is that feeling which drives you to care for a person you don't know much (usually of the opposite sex), while sex is the tool used for expressing it. Although some people can buy sex, I can say that they miss a lot of it. It's like as if you're expressing something that is not there. Thats why 'those' people keep buying sex every now and then. For they are not satisfied... Simply because love is not there...

There is more to love than sex, and there is more to sex than love.

oh, love but definitely... I detest sex... I know, I'm the only freak around, right? Every time I have sex (married, unmarried..) I get shafted (eh, not how that sounds.) But love?! I'm in love with love! I desire it above anything else on the planet.. I dwell on it.. I dream it.. I desire it.. I want someone to WANT me.. to be wanted?! the epitome.. (sigh) Sex is for animals.. love? love is for man.

No.  Sex is meaningless and can be done between any two people regardless of emotion.  It's when you have a deeper connection with someone that sex becomes meaningful.  Otherwise, it's really just scratching a physical itch.

The act is real simple though the preparation for it needs a lot of time , effort and love. Sex is simple union of male and female genitals for the purpose of reproduction. Love making is much more complex and emotionally loaded to handle

Sex has nothing to do with love, it is designed for procreation.  Many feel that a healthy sex life improves a relationship, the only detriment you would have is if you fill your need for sex by looking outside of a relationship (if you're in one) without your partners consent.  Either way be safe, and remember there is such a thing as masturbation.

Love = the person loves someone for who they are, for the ideals, for the time they have had with and been enriched. The love is evergoing and it grows stronger.\n\nLove lasts longer than lust if it is true love.\n\nLust = is more to do with sex appeal, and when fulfilled in a moment of a minute or hour, it is lost. It is all about what the eyes sees from the outer not the inner of the person they are staring into or talking to.

sex is good when Love's involved that's why it's called "making love" sex without love is just an animal instinct.

Like and Love is very different, here's the quick definition from the good old dictionary:\n\nLike is something to feel about,\n\nwhile,\n\nLove is to experience deep affection or intense desire for another.

Just sex is when it has no meaning to it. It's like taking someone out of a bar, taking them home and just doing it. It's basically like two dogs in heat. REAL SEX to me is when you love someone with your whole heart, body, mind and soul. You both love each other and it's a coming together. You have respect for each other and give freely to each other.

The major difference between someone who just loves sex and a sex addict is that the sex for a normal person is a selective expression of caring and desire for someone with whom one has a meaningful, social relationship.(It is relationship centered.)  For the sex addict, sex is an act that is constantly sought after with anyone, everyone and without regard for the feelings or social outcome of the act for self and/or others involved.  (It is self-centered for momentary gratification only).

love - exists between 2 individuals and is shared by both and  lasts a long time\n\nlust - purely sexual attraction, often no lasting relationship involved.\n\npuppy love - like love but is more immature and not likely to last\n\ncrush - desire is only felt by the person having the crush

Love is when you can see yourself with a person, really SEE yourself happy with this person, for eternity.  Forever.  Love is when you can't stand to be apart and when you're together, you feel like never leaving and never sleeping and never breathing.  Love is so complicated that you don't even want to think about explaining it in words and the only way you can do it is in feelings.\n\nLike is an attraction, physical and mental, that makes you desire to be around someone and it makes you happy, but it doesn't blow your mind.  It's when you think about that person and really have to concider your feelings sometimes.    That's how it is for me.
