Is there really a difference between “having sex” and “making love”?
Yes. Having sex is the act of physical sexual contact. Making love is the use of physical sexual contact to express how you feel about another person. It is possible to have sex with another person and not actually make love. In my opinion it is not possible to truly make love without physical contact.
Yes, I believe there’s a great difference. “Having sex” is a physical act with physical reactions but “making love” is beyond the realm of physical contact. Sexual interaction is something wonderful to enjoy but “making love” is something to experience. No words can describe lovemaking and no one can capture or package it. That’s the difference! “Having sex” can be filmed, described, sold, packaged and even justified but making love is outside of everything. It transports you to another place. Sex is momentary but lovemaking touches the eternal. Given a choice I believe most people crave lovemaking but settle for having sex. Perhaps not a popular opinion but I believe it to be true.
