They might feel like the same things but they are not. Sex is a basic instinct we are hardwired to respond to. We want it because it feels good and ensures our species will survive. It is primal and pretty simple.
From a woman's point of view sex means "I accept you as someone with the biological and personal traits I would approve of in my children". Having made this decision in the midst of the Rule 1 physical wig out, it is very easy to mistake emotion and the decision to accept sex, as love. But it is still only a part of love. In reality not a very big part, the physical wig out will end and the cumulative amount of time having sex is a very small fraction of the whole.
From a man's point of view sex means "I have been accepted as someone she would have children with". I took the risks. I was accepted. I am in the middle of a physical wig out. This feels pretty good. I must be in love. I wonder what she is fixing for dinner. Men are usually simpler and come to conclusions like this more quickly. But again it is still only a part of love. In reality the physical wig out will be over. As much as men would like; they can't stay in bed for ever, most likely because, if they want something to eat for dinner they are going to have to get up and fix it themselves.
Love and sex are not the same things. Sex is about acceptance and love is about commitment. Sex is about the offer and love is about the sale. There is a lot of negotiation that needs to go on in between.
There are a number of other things a novice at love should know about how love works. They can be stated as a set of rules or helpful guidelines for those who dare to accept the challenge of learning about love. Behind each rule exists several thousand years of human experience with love captured in music, art, literature and sometimes modeled in noble men and women. Because love is the most profound and desirable of human experiences it would serve each of us to search out the rules and then study the experience and wisdom behind them. It is a fundamental of love that we can only be better for having dared to explore and understand the power of love.
