You want to know the person, like being around them outside the bedroom. Now sometimes that's great, but otherwise, it fails. At least now you're seeing if you'll still like her after before it happens," he pointed out, the grin not leaving his face. He knew Ben. No matter what Ben said, he'd seen all this years ago. It was what stopped him for all those years. "And anyway, love is different from sex. And Ben, sorry to break it to you, but you that one day. Not today, not tomorrow, but one day."
