I would love to enjoy Someone who understands that two people interact with one another's souls through one another's bodies. The body is just the vehicle for the soul to experience life.
I want something in between hooking up and being imprisoned by a relationship. I don't want to just use someone or be used, and I don't want someone to think they own my life because we care about each other.
It seems to me that most people who say they want "friends with benefits" usually just want benefits. They don't really want to be drawn into caring about the person.
Culturally we have been conditioned to think that love and attachment are the same thing. I think it's one reason why so many people hold back in relationships. There would be less fear of loving if people could enjoy loving and receiving love and appreciate love without demanding that it remain.
I think it is possible, though it probably happens only rarely, to love someone and yet hold on with an open hand. If it has ever been created by anyone, then it can be created by anyone who really wants it. It would be worth trying, anyway.
