Why is sex so complicated? The act itself isn’t the complicated part. It’s everything else surrounding it. How much sex do I want? With whom do I want it? Am I okay having sex with just one person for the rest of my life? If not, how do I want to arrange it?

I suspect I won’t be able to have sex with just one person for the rest of my life. I hope also to be understanding and supportive when my partner or partners feel the exact same way. Yet I’ve had partners who I have satisfied for multiple years, seemingly without them wanting or needing anything else. Though, of course, what do I know? Would they tell me? When I ask, are they honest? Would I be?
