One of the most heartbreaking moments I ever experienced with an ex-girlfriend while we were dating was her latenight confession to me one evening that many times she had given herself over to sex with the true aim of her behavior being the desire to have someone hold her--she just wanted to be held.
I held her, and just like so many women prostitute themselves for a fancy piece of jewelry or for a fancy dinner, and think they must reciprocate with sex, she thought she owed me sex for holding her. Nonsense! If anyone reading this has such rubbish ideas, then throw them out in your mental garbage bin.
If you only want someone to hold you or cuddle you, then there are plenty of people in this world who will give that at no cost, without expecting anything in return. To think that being held is of greater value than getting to hold someone, and therefore requires some kind of additional payment, is to greatly overvalue being held.
Ladies, if you want something, then you shouldn't have to remove your clothes to get it, and gentlemen, if you want something, then you shouldn't have to remove your wallet to get it.
