Which do you prefer? I've been in quite a few relationships, and despite the obligations, commitment, drama and whatnot, I honestly prefer being in a relationship. That warm fuzzy feeling you get when you cuddle with your loved one is one of the reasons why I love having a partner- knowing that you're special to them is a huge self-esteem booster. And I find sex to be much hotter when you're doing it with the girl you love rather than a girl in the club, but that's just me.
