"Elms," by Louise Glück
All day I tried to distinguish
need from desire. Now, in the dark,
I feel only bitter sadness for us,
the builders, the planers of wood,

It isn’t romantic if a person asks their partner what they enjoy.
Too much masturbation is bad.
Someone with a sex partner does not masturbate.
Fantasizing about someone else during sex means a person is not happy with the person he or she is in a relationship with.
