Casual sex is not for me. I can't relax and enjoy sex (not only mentally but also physically) if there is no emotion or feeling involved. I suppose I could do it if sex worked for me on those terms, but it doesn't. Also, I think STD's are rife nowadays and it's too great a risk, as condoms don't protect you 100%.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
