In Which the Debate Heats Up

Tonight, I had a long conversation about how attractive it is when your significant other is passionate about the same politics and values that you hold dear. As if on cue, I got back and found this clip from the 11 o'clock news in North Carolina, in which my boyfriend can be seen videotaping while Josh schools this guy for being an idiot about for-profit healthcare. Swoon. It is maybe weird that this is a total aphrodisiac.

as someone who is in a relationship (married actually, in Switzerland you can) for the last 18 years, I'd like to say that's exactly those kind of moments that make it all stick together. Not afraid of sounding like Barbara Cartland,indeed it is more breakfast conversation than sex that keep the couple going. Breakfast conversation animated by shared values and a tinge of admiration.
To always find something somewhat admirable about the loved one is the ultimate aphrodisiac ...
