Animal Lust
Have you ever had that experience where you’re attracted to someone on a purely physical level? Inexplainable, even. Your logical part of your brain knows you would never have a relationship with this person but the underbelly of your lust shudders when they are near.
The person comes up behind you and you suddenly can’t breathe. Or you begin to shake. It’s nothing you control, it’s an automatic response.
And it’s not your spouse.
It’s a strange phenomenon, pheromones and chemicals. The interaction between two bodies of atoms colliding in a spark.
Have you ever had that and tried to explain why you only see this person every four years? Or why you don’t drink near them? It’s not that you don’t trust yourself but it’s that you don’t trust your SELF.
Have you experienced this?

I plead the 5th.
But I would also like to add to also avoid such a person around ovulation, especially if you are over 35 and Mother Nature is suddenly screaming at you to reproduce ONE MORE TIME before it’s too late.
But again, I plead the 5th.

I had a dream last night about John Corbett. Does that count?

Only total whores think about people who aren’t their spouses. You should be ashamed of yourself for looking for a replacement for your husband.

Yes. Totally.
And Desq09 is probably dried up and half dead.

I think I’m lucky to have both the relationship and the animal attraction with just one person. When I met D for lunch for the first time I couldn’t stop shaking. It was the same on our first date and still happens when we have a romantic couples night. Gah, it’s awesome.

Ah. Maybe. I’m not handing out the details on that one.

Yes. Absolutely.

Before I was married, but absolutely had this happen to me. We had nothing in common and he wasn’t the sharpest knife in the drawer, but my knees would get weak everytime I saw him. Luckily, my husband can generate the same reaction with a kiss.

Um, yes. An ex-boyfriend of mine, who I made a point to never see after I met my husband, because I knew I could not trust myself around him. Unfortunately, he (the ex) died about 6 months ago. Which is sad & horrible, and also selfishly sucks because now that fantasy is completely ruined.

Gawd, yes. Occasionally with people that I can’t avoid (like my first personal trainer!) Sometimes with people that I can avoid(but do I really want to?)
I view it as proof that sex and desire exists on such a basic level – we are all animals afterall.
