It seemed he was the perfect lover, at least for the moment. He did not live where you lived. He did not see you often enough, or for long enough, for you to grow bored, or to feel afraid that you were not feeling love---or worse, that you were. The perfection had a cost, which is that he was not in any true sense a real person. He was a coat you bought off the rack, an unsuperlative fashion statement. Ben Greenman
About This Quote

Love is not just about the physical act of sex, it is also about the emotional connection you have with another person. If you are not feeling love for the person you are having sex with, the relationship is doomed. It may be fun for a little while but sooner or later you will get bored and feel like their physical appearance does not make them better than anyone else. He was a coat you bought off the rack.

Even though he was not real, it felt like he was your perfect man. But then you lost interest after he gave you the best orgasm of your life and wanted to move on.
