Subject: A Survey on Romantic Relationships
Warnings: Potential discussions about sex? I guess?? But mostly this is just Alhaitham being the most obliviously shameless man alive.

This is Alhaitham.

I have a survey that I would like people to fill. There are no restrictions or stipulations to the nature of the responder. The only request is for you to be honest when filling it up.

1) Are you currently in a romantic relationship or have been in one? (yes/no)
2) If yes, does your current or previous relationship involve sex? (yes/no)
3) List down 5 to 10 words that describe what your significant other (past or present) makes you feel.
4) What is your main priority when you are with your significant other (past or present)?
5) How do you measure or recognize your feelings as love? What separates them infatuation or sexual attraction? Describe in 100 words or less.

You are free to leave your answers in this post or direct them to my inbox. I will be following up on whatever answers I feel are necessary.

Thank you for your time.

You don't have anyone you can observe or learn from? You can learn a lot by just watching people. It's how I learned to "be people" at least a little bit.

I watched people fall in love, watched them fall out of love for 1,000 years. Watched one couple stand on opposite sides of the law - where one even chopped off the arm of his boyfriend because it was holding the weapon that killed the queen.

That is what I have always done, but I have been told multiple times that observing alone is not enough. Hence, this exercise.

[Also he doesn't exactly have a thousand years for this. Unfortunately for him.]
