You Two Are a Perfect Loving Circle

I was at a social evening a while back, and I was sitting on the couch with a woman I like very much. We were really into a heavy discussion when a friend came over and said, “You two are a perfect loving circle.” He wouldn’t tell us what he meant, but the phrase stuck with me. What does it mean?

When two people are in love, or extremely sympathetic to each other, you can often see a “loving circle” in the way they sit together. If they’re on a couch next to each other, their bodies will be turned toward each other, their arms may meet along the back of the couch, and they’ll cross their legs toward one another—in short, they’ll form a circle with their bodies.

The same sort of circle, perhaps less obvious, is often formed by two people less interested in each other sexually, but still involved. The two people needn’t be of
different sexes. Two men and two women can also form loving circles depending on how much they enjoy each other’s company or how interested each is in what the other is saying at the moment.
