Excerpt:
from Chapter 3, LOVE VS. SEX
Being in love is without any doubt a beautiful thing. It makes you
extremely happy, endorphins run wild, you want to hug the whole world and
that’s a great emotional mind frame to be in. It’s one of those emotions that
give you an incredible high. If that feeling is reciprocated, it’s even better.
If the physical attraction is as strong as the emotional and you can melt
the two into one, sex can be truly magical but even in very loving
relationships sex eventually seems to become an issue. The main reason for that
is the shift of emotions. That feeling of being in love gradually turns into
“just” love. Often, once that first high is gone, people start to take in the
environment more, things that didn’t seem to matter beforehand, while you were
in that “in love” mind frame. You’ll also start to see the person you’re with
in a more realistic way (recognizing their flaws, for instance.) In that state,
you find out if that person is a true match for you or not. I’m talking about
the personality as well as sex. That’s the time when people often start to take
the other person for granted (since you’re used to having them in your life),
and things get a bit more complicated. Sexually you’ve tried it all, and it
becomes a bit more of a mundane routine, and eventually, a certain level of
boredom will set in.
By then, it is crucial to relight that spark, otherwise your relationship
will become a very mediocre affair. Everything that made it something special
once will go down the drain. Obviously there’s much more to a relationship than
sex, but make no mistake, it is the one thing that separates your
romantic relationship from just being platonic friends. Many people with more
life experience will tell you that this is just part of the process, that
things change, and for that reason, it’s important to be best friends, first
and foremost. While that is important, it is a big mistake to base your
relationship only on that. In many ways, it doesn’t make any sense either. Why
would you want to give up on that unique bond, solidified in a mind-blowing sexual
connection and exchange it for being just friends and the occasional sex
(because as a couple you’re obligated to do so)?
Yes, there are immense challenges to keep a love affair going. Once
you’re used to each other, many distractions will come your way. On top of
that, another big issue will surface: Humans are not genetically equipped
for monogamy in the first place. Therefore, if your love life is not
exciting anymore, temptations will definitely become a growing issue. For some,
that might take a while, sometimes years, but eventually it’s gonna happen. I’m
not suggesting that monogamy isn’t possible, but it is a choice, rather than
something we’re naturally programmed to be. So how do you prevent that from
happening?
If I gave you a choice to pick between a mediocre relationship and one
that is truly unique, where you both stand in opposite corners of a room,
packed with people, and you feel your lover looking at you from afar with eyes
filled with desire, anxiously waiting for the moment to finally rip your
clothes off – which one would you pick?
If the two of you are a real match personality-wise and the love is
strong on both sides, you can have that. The key is the kind of sex you’re
having. People don’t drift apart or cheat as easily when they’re completely
sexually satisfied. I’m talking about the out-of-this world kind of sex, where
the two of you are so connected that nothing else matters. This book will give
you a lot insight in how to reach that.
The lack of good sex is the main reason – by far – why relationships fall
apart. I’ll elaborate on that in a later chapter much more in depth.

Who is L.G. Erikson?
"L.G. Erikson was born on a warm, beautiful day in the
spring of......." - hold on, you can't tell them that!
Okay, let's continue: "She.... He grew up with one brother, mother and father in....." -
never mind, can't tell them that, either.
"He.... She
had the opportunity to experience a lot of different cultures. From early
childhood on, she.... he was very
outspoken and curious about the world and the people in it. That continued
while growing up. He.... she formed
many friendships with people from all kinds of backgrounds, and learned a lot
about.... well.... a lot. In time, it became clear to her.... him, that his ability to think outside
the box needed to be shared with the world, so he started writing down his
observations. Finally, he.... she
realized the time had come to write the first book: The Uncensored Truth: Let's Talk About Sex." - Done. The End.
Wait....What?? Isn't this the section where
you're supposed to tell your readers more about you personally? You're just
gonna leave them in the dark?
Yes! That's exactly what I want!
See, my gender, race, origin, age or real name are
completely irrelevant for the context of my book. How would revealing that
information help me to open their minds?? If anything, it would tempt them to
draw the wrong conclusions if they knew all this stuff about me. Besides, there
is a lot more to come - yes, there will be more books - and I want them to keep
reading without prejudice.
But
then again, who knows.... Maybe someday in the future I will reveal my
identity....when the time is right.
