It's all good, there's nothing wrong with some mutual rambling lol
But, the folks I meant are the ones that rattle off bios of dozens of porn actors off the top of their heads. Which, I agree, isn't far off from folks that do it with conventional actors! It's a blurry line between interest and obsession.
And I definitely feel you regarding self love being a wonderful thing by itself, and sexuality not being exclusive to a partnership. The kind of skin hiker hunger you mentioned, the craving of human touch, is also a separate thing from sexuality and partnerships sometimes.
I guess what I'm saying is that I feel you, I get where you're coming from (and those double entendres weren't intentional, but I'm leaving them now that I notice them lol).
Having a high libido definitely adds "pressure" to finding a good sexual balance with the self, and partners. Self love is still love, and there's nothing wrong with fucking yourself into a stupor :). I know in my younger days, I always found it a bit unbalanced to try and expect partners to fulfill my entire sexual needs. Even when a partner matched my libido, it just seems off to place all that on another, if you get me.
