That's a fascinating topic Sarah

I like to take my time and get to know somebody because then it feels like the connection is real.

I think I act pretty much the same. I've been in only one relationship that lasted a year (I wasn't the one to end it). I had felt very lonely and in need of someone close before that relationship and so I do now. I mainly miss physical contact, but the emotional connection too. That being said, I wouldn't get into another relationship just for the sake of physical contact, no matter how much I long for it. How long would it last for - two or three months? I don't think it's worth it. So I have to wait for someone that I would connect with on all levels.
