Having a romantic partner when you share the same body: I love you, we are closer than skin to skin, I can show you my pure emotions, our conversation happens at the speed of thought, we can merge into one being if we choose, I can take you with me anywhere I go.

Having a romantic partner when you both have seperate bodies: I love you, I can feel your touch against mine, I can feel your weight on top of me, I can hear your voice, I can look into your eyes, I can introduce you to people, we can hold each other.
