Sex without some love is just a commodity.
Love without sex is pressure in the nether regions.
The Art is to balance both (love and sex) with a BG.
The Key is to remember Lord Buddha - Attachment
(love) with the things of the world will only bring
pain.
Feel free to ask for clarifications.

Actually, I agree - and what saves that from banality is the 'some'. Obviously, there's a very wide spectrum between total indifference and besotted infatuation. It's a wonderful thing that so many BGs are adept at making themselves lovable.
With all due respect to the Lord B (and others), he's arguing for disengagement from the world. I suspect I won't start to test whether this indeed the 'key' until the old pecker finally gives out, and in the meantime will continue on the working assumption that attachment to at least some of my fellow-creatures makes existence worthwhile. Pain seems a small price to pay. The world may well be a shallow illusion, but I still don't know nearly enough about it to be convinced of that, and it's a good enough illusion for now. In LOS it is, anyway.

It's the part of Buddhism that I don't understand. If one is incarnated to learn and progress then re-incarnated for another set of experiences and lessons. Why try to avoid things when in effect that is why one is here = to experience and not avoid.

...because avoidance is an experience as well, and how can you experience it, if you have no self-control... *that* is what it is all about. Your argumnet is called 'rationalisation'

...but if 'pain' is one of the things we need to experience, how can our experience be complete if we avoid and shun pain?
In other words, to quote Capt. James T. Kirk "I... NEED... MY... PAIN!"
Furthermore, it is possible to enjoy the material things, and to be attached to them, yet not feel pain over their loss. *THAT* is the highest achievement of Zen...

I cannot enjoy your self, I can only enjoy myself and you must endeavour to be yourself.
Which may mean like Descartes argued from his inability to doubt that he was thinking to the conclusion that he was an immaterial substance whose essence was thought...
His detractor Gassendi's replied, that although you recognize that your are thinking you do not know what kind of thing you, who are thinking, are.
To respond to this challenge by saying, with Descartes, that one is a thinking thing would be like a blind man who, on feeling heat and being told that it comes from the sun, thinks he has a clear and distinct idea of the sun in that, if anyone asks him what the sun is, he can reply: "It is a heating thing."
So the point is, then, knowing that one thinks, doubts, understands, and so on, is not enough to yield substantive knowledge of what one is and consequently it forces us to learn of what we are by doing things and ultimately things that we enjoy.
