“Sex is the least genuine and most superficial way to achieve [though most likely feign] intimacy with someone. People swapping fluids like it’s gonna change who they are. A bit of friction doesn’t change anything. Sex can be a manifestation of intimacy, but it isn’t intimacy. People wonder why we’ve got a generation of desperately lonely people, who also happen to be libertines - because they’ve been taught that sex liberates you, when in reality honesty liberates you - emotional honesty, a lived pattern of genuine and innocuous behavior. Most sex isn’t honest at all, it’s a performance, an attempt at achievement - prove you’re something, prove you’re as liberated as the world demands - that’s an act, acts imprison you, masks suffocate us. You won’t find fulfillment in sex, and looking for it there will kill your heart, as it will be a procession of emotional mirages. It’s only present if it’s already present, it doesn’t manifest within the act.”

zodiac–signs:

Water signs (cancer, scorpio, pisces): *tries to read someone else’s entire personality based on a tiny mannerism or expression they used and rides the assumption train straight to hell* 

Air signs (gemini, libra, aquarius): *gets unrealistic crushes on strangers and obsessed with the concept of how it would be like to date them in a really serious way, then forgets about it and moves on to the next fantasy*
