Flesh Mates

A bad smell is a way of detecting with our sense of smell something decaying. If we spray something slightly toxic around, it may not have the same effect if you were to ingest or drink such waste. It would make you sick. Other elements some of us may be more susceptible than others. But what is repealing like a bad breath, or stinking feet, or eat more than your share. And rarely, if anything, make the slightest effort to exercise. The slightest efforts are not always enough; perhaps invest a bit more of yourself. You can give yourself the gift of keeping physically active and fit. Our bodies reflect ourselves and, to some extent, our habits. Our bodies tell a story as to how we see ourselves, how much we dedicate to cultivate our physic, and no one can be truly happy with too sedentary an existence. Aristotle saw in movement, life!
Our words shouldn’t invite more than an actual challenge. Challenge yourself to be a leanner, meaner self. Being fit is a reflection of your dedication; it speaks highly of you. And it’s not like you have to be perfect, but you do have to be a perfectionist, to an extent.
I spoke of emotional fidelity. And sexual fidelity as well. Of course, we can all start openly, enjoy ourselves and not necessarily fall in love. But if a relationship is to thrive, in the long run it makes sense to want to be unique. It doesn’t mean you’re missing out. Just because you can't smell, it doesn't mean it's not rotten, and why let something rot? Best to lay it on the ground, say your goodbyes and bury it. Don't linger for long, and if you must, then at least have something on the side to look forward to.
You ought to have lived your life, and always continue to do so by having something going for yourself aside your partnership with another, because if you’re really the shallow type expect a very lonely existence and a lot of fun way before your good looks go to waste. Age affects us all. The clock is ticking, and for years now I try to slow down my interior monologue, and I listen and act rather than react, be kind and open to new things, as if to absorb the moment, live completely immersed in the present.
Of course, the important thing in a relationship shouldn’t be sex. But just the same, sex is just as important a foundation of a healthy communion between flesh mates as any other, and quite frankly I could not conceive of a relationship being complete without the sexual factor weighing in on this lovely equation of things. It'd be like orchestrating the most beautiful sound only to fall on deaf ears. That said, though, the reason we stick to only one partner is not just because it is the most noble thing. We may want to go on a fucking spree and get back home in time for supper every now and then. But that is not how we roll. And if we’re balanced individuals, it is actually something we should crave; settling emotionally gives you a platform to dedicate more time to build and create, and that makes a whole lot of sense.
