Mouth of Desire.
Sep. 6th, 2004 09:39 pmI've 'learned' something very interesting about myself, or realised it.
Now that I'm 'dating' again (and I really am now-- people make me excited and happy to be around them, and even to be intimate with them, again) I find that I have three kinds of desire. There's desire for emotional closeness, for physical closeness, and for sex.
The desire for sex manifests behind my belly-button, as one would expect. However, the desire for physical closeness, or for emotional closeness, manifests in my mouth.
That's right. That's where the feeling of longing/wanting is centred, and it's odd.
I think this may be related to the fact that kissing and emotional connection are closely related for me. That is, I'm not comfortable kissing someone I'm not emotionally connected with, and when I'm emotionally connected to someone, kissing seems like a top-three activity.
Every once in awhile, if it's physical closeness, it switches to the outside of my upper arms for awhile, and then goes back to my mouth.
This has been the Amusing Greenstorm Fact #671.
