Sex, Love and Ghosting: February’s pop-up blog

Love and sex, requited relationships, love-sick crushes. What else can we say that hasn’t been written? A lot actually.

Love and sex, requited relationships, lovesick crushes—what else can we say that hasn’t been written? A lot actually. Because love, sex and breakups are everlasting topics which never cease to confound and fascinate us. Just as melancholy poetry, saucy products to spice up our sex lives, the reddening flush of wonder if this is your soul mate never cease to draw our attention. Questions of sex, love, and lost love propel us into wonder, no matter our age, keeping us as young as a nascent scholar using basic math to discover the secrets of the universe.

So we dedicate this month’s pop-up blog to all things Sex, Love and Ghosting. 

We’ll uncover best and worst gifts from lovers, display local erotic art, figure out the best dating apps, talk to cheaters, talk to a escort, talk to a couple about how they’ve remained married for over 50 years and showcase a day trip in Northern Virginia for blended families meeting for the first time. And so much more. Keep checking back for articles throughout the month.

Sex (sěks)          n.: sex is like math: you add the bed, subtract the clothes, divide the legs and pray you don’t multiply.

Love [luhv]       n. the most spectacular,indescribable, deep, euphoric feeling for someone.

Ghosting [goh-sting] v. The act of suddenly ceasing all communication with someone the subject is dating but no longer wishes to date.
