In fact, I couldn't be in love with anyone if I were ashamed of her in any way. That just does not compute.
As for the sex / love dynamic, for me they really are two different things. They certainly can complement one another, but I've had equally awesome sex with someone I love and with someone I was not in love with (3 of the former and 4 of the latter if memory serves). However, I have to connect with my partner for the sex to be intense: it may not be love, but it has to be real.
