No wonder you grow up expecting every guy to resemble that Renaissance figure.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We sat in his car, in the back seat \u2014 a black Accord with paint peeling away &#8211; sort of a teenage high school car: loud music, recklessness and the kind of kisses that make you forget curfews. The ocean, low tide, shells thrown onto the shore, and a huge moon hanging over the red-and-white lighthouse. We looked into each other\u2019s eyes, and it was so calm that speaking felt completely unnecessary. Lone cars passed along the spit, their headlights lighting up his face \u2014 a very beautiful, lean face with sharply defined features. I traced his cheekbones and jaw with my hands, but the most special thing \u2014 his lower jaw \u2014 was the first thing that caught my eye, the first thing I wanted to touch, to caress. If I were a sculptor, I\u2019d be touching his jaw like this and transferring the feeling from my fingertips into clay. The shape of his face in general \u2014 it was the perfect sculpture of the Italian Renaissance. The one Michelangelo didn\u2019t have time to make in marble.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why had they taken me, as a child, to see a copy of the naked David with the perfect body, the chiseled abs? That\u2019s how unreachable ideals and subconscious images are created, the ones we later try to find in the features of real people.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And then he took off his T-shirt. And I realized they must have sculpted all those Italian beauties from this guy. He was perfect everywhere. That\u2019s what happens \u2014 you walk through museums as a kid, and one day you fall in love with a body like David\u2019s, with a jaw like the skull on my father\u2019s desk. Only now it\u2019s a warm body \u2014 not cold marble, but warm, hot, sweaty. Not a bare skull I was once left alone with as a child (my parents are doctors and we have some related to medicine artifacts) \u2014 oh, how I loved to touch its lower jaw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Such soft skin, everything so finely drawn. Dark green eyes that turn lighter when light hits them\u2026 A car passes, headlights falling across his face \u2014 not entirely, just a strip of brightness, while the other half is in shadow. And it\u2019s so subtle, so beautiful. We look into each other\u2019s eyes, and he doesn\u2019t smile, as if this is a very important, serious moment, almost tragic. And around us \u2014 a mystery, a secret, because we know almost nothing about each other. It\u2019s just our second date!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The headlights light up my face too, and then he smiles, pulls me close by the neck, whispers that I\u2019m beautiful. I look into his eyes \u2014 we can\u2019t look away from each other \u2014 and savor his beauty. I see myself reflected in his green eyes and feel even more beautiful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Michelangelo\u2019s sculptures you\u2019re afraid to touch, afraid to rub away centuries of smoothness. People touch them wearing white gloves. But I\u2019m touching carefully, with my fingertips \u2014 a marble body beginning to come alive.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another car drives past along the lagoon, its lights like the sunlight streaming through a museum window. Only now it touches not marble, but living skin. Such sculptures should never be kept behind glass!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m sitting on his lap, pulling back to look at his beautiful face. And I ground myself, I say:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&nbsp;\u201cYou know, love is such a stretchable concept, such an all-encompassing one. What\u2019s there in the early stages is actually passion \u2014 it\u2019s hormones, it\u2019s the desire for closeness, for pleasure. That state can last a few weeks, often a few months, sometimes a year, and then it fades, because relationships can\u2019t survive on passion alone<\/strong>\u201d.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why do I say this? I kiss him, then pull back to look at him again, trying to memorize him like you memorize a painting you\u2019ll never see again and aren\u2019t allowed to photograph. Something tugs inside \u2014 what if all this remains only in memory? All the beauty of this world \u2014 you must breathe it in before it disappears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But he replies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&nbsp;\u201cThe most interesting thing is to really get to know a person \u2014 what they love, what please them&nbsp; \u2014 and to build something together, something strong. That\u2019s when the longest, deepest feeling breaks through.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And in the morning he writes to me: <em>I read something and wanted to share it with you \u2014 when you can\u2019t physically let a person go, when you want to be with them all the time and miss them terribly when they leave, when you can\u2019t take your eyes off them, when you just keep looking into their eyes \u2014 that\u2019s how a deep connection begins. The kind you can only have once in a lifetime.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I write back: <em>That\u2019s passion, it\u2019s a little blind, with emojis and all that silly stuff\u2026<\/em> I write it, but I myself want those teenage emojis, want to look into each other\u2019s eyes without a word. And to love \u2014 exactly as I feel like! Without physiological and social explanations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Love, taken apart into hormones<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Passion and a wild craving for physical closeness \u2014 is that love? I think passion in that sense is just one part of love. When your head is spinning, your heart is leaping out, butterflies in your stomach, mouth going dry, and not in your mouth \u2014 the opposite \u2014 that\u2019s passion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How many hormones wake up when we fall in love! Especially in the early stages. More so at the start than later on. For that infatuation to last, you have to work hard: build a relationship not just on passion, but on trust and understanding. You need shared interests, shared friends, and topics to talk about. You also need your own interests, your own friends, your own conversations. You need personal space and time; each of you must still be interesting to the other and to yourselves \u2014 not losing yourself, not drowning in the other. To stay independent, yet be one whole. That\u2019s how a big house is built. And it can be very tall, very strong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Infatuation, though \u2014 yes! Nothing compares to its intensity. It lasts from a few weeks to a few months, maybe a year. It\u2019s the sharpest, most saturated emotional period in a relationship. For me \u2014 usually just short of one week to two months. That\u2019s why I used to think two months was the whole of love, and after that \u2014 it\u2019s over. But now I\u2019m older and wiser and I know you can extend those two months, because after them comes the most interesting stage, where emotional and practical intelligence join in \u2014 conversations, confessions, building trust. Sex in the second stage becomes different \u2014 exploratory, patient, focused on learning what else the other person enjoys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For now, the first stage is the most exciting, and everything is predictable \u2014 pure hormones, fed by how much two people like each other physically, by the intrigue, the little mystery \u2014 something left unsaid sparks curiosity. Scents, clothes, music, the setting \u2014 it all creates the atmosphere and stirs the hormones. They were asleep, and now they\u2019re awake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>***<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And I\u2019m curious \u2014 what happens if you let it all go, let yourself be silly, light, wander around a museum open-mouthed \u2014 marveling at a body shaped by Michelangelo \u2014 every firm curve of the perfect abs. Marveling at paintings without reading their captions, without knowing their history, knowing nothing of the era or the artist. To behold beauty, to admire the beautiful, and to feel \u2014 deeply, truly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My marble David \u2014 alive, warm, real. The harmony of eternal beauty and the living spark in his eyes, like in a portrait where the viewer is forever a little in love. I could feel my pulse pounding \u2014 no museum masterpiece could compare to this warmth. The ocean roared, the moon climbed higher\u2026&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tomorrow I\u2019ll wake up and the first thing I\u2019ll do \u2014 is run straight back to my museum!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just a second date\u2014sitting in his car, facing each other, his beauty lit by the glow of the headlights.
