"Le sexe sans amour est aussi creux et ridicule que l'amour sans sexe"
Simplified meaning
When people have sex without caring deeply for each other, it often feels empty and meaningless because there's no real emotional connection. Imagine eating a meal that looks delicious but tastes bland – it might satisfy your hunger, but it won't be enjoyable. On the other hand, loving someone but never being physically close might make the relationship feel incomplete, much like a beautiful painting that's missing its most vibrant color. In a perfect world, love and sex go hand-in-hand; they complement each other and make relationships more fulfilling. For instance, in a long-term marriage, both emotional intimacy and physical affection help keep the bond strong. So, the best relationships usually have both love and sex, as they balance each other and create a deeper connection.
