The Purple Thread – Love, Lust, Sex
All along the path to recovery from a devastating divorce, I have searched for a partner. I want love. I want lust. I want our encounters to be authentic and open. I want sexual intelligence. I was heat and passion from both my partner and myself. Here are the posts from The Off Parent that fall into the lust and love thread.
