18/12/02: Can a Person Stay in a Committed Relationship but keep Emotionally Unattached?

     I've just recently had this notion come to my attention.  Now I can but into the non-emotional attachment when in regards to a casual dating basis.  I can see a couple going out maybe once a week.  Date other people.  Considering that is the type of situation that they are in.
     HOWEVER;  we're talking an exclusive relationship.  On a daily to bi-daily get togeather rate.  Which has been continuing for some time.  The relationship would include open, honest communication.  And both parties would enjoy the others company on ALL levels. 
     So given this scenerio is it reasonable to think that one of the parties can remain emotionally unattached?  Not likely, and wouldn't that mean you would be missing one of the main ingrediants to what makes a relationship well... a relationship?  OK so to think of it in different terms so why would someone even want to do this?  Well.... maybe because they figure whats the sense, since it will end eventually anyhow?  but wouldn't that be like not giving the relationship a chance?  It would be as if you were dooming it from the get go!
      Isn't the point of an exclusive relationship to enjoy the other person.  The good, the bad, to take the risk whether it means getting hurt in the long run or not.  Doesn't getting involved with someone include a giving of yourself completly.  Half the excitement of the relationship is the intoxication from the feeling of being emotionally attached. 
     Isn't that what everyone is untimatly looking for...  despite achievements with work, socially, physically yada yada yada untilmatly what makes the world such an incredible place is people's need and want to give love?    
  HMMMMMM  I'm going to have to explore this further.  I'll get back to you all very soon I promise.
