so, what's your opinion? (I tried to cover all reasons but if you have other ones please write down, too) (Maybe you would chose a combination of them, then vote the most striking one and tell the combination in the forum.)

I didn't vote yet. because none of all above these options is my opinion.
My opinion is: when you are turned on by him/her, you are in love with him/her. |

You don't have my answer, which would be "Too often with the wrong woman." haha!
Must be true, or I wouldn't be twice divorced.

Silly RedRose!
I can be quite turned on - and not in love at all. 
Actually I think most men can.

People "love" other relations/things. For instance people love their parents, love their children, love their work, and so on.
But if it is the man-woman thing, people fall in love. So if "love" is a "trap" people fall into, any of those options can work as cheese. |

That would be a huge difference between men and women.
Generally speaking, women would fall in love just with the men they love, and they just get turned on by their beloved men; but men are totally different, they can get turned on by any attractive women, no matter whether they love the woman or not  furthermore, men even can be turned on by a cow when they are horny (I am not being offensive here).
In this respect, women seem very mental at love, and men are very physical. on the other hand, men have more original animal nature than women.

Turtle, I am sure you are a lucky man 
"Too often with the wrong woman." can mean have a lot of sex and women, without worrying about responsibility!. therefore, as a man, you are successful |

I think this is somewhat out of the norm. A cow never turned me on. Only human females for me.

The mental is, most women require a feeling of trust and security - then they can be very physical. Both have animal nature - but each has a different need before it is expressed. Men express desire and sometimes love, women express trust and love.

I suppose it could mean "have a lot of sex and women, without worrying about responsibility!" but it doesn't in my case. I prefer to have a relationship before sex, and I'm mindful of the responsibility. I've had several good relationships, but I've picked the wrong women to marry.

Your words couldn't be more perfect. It sounds like poetry to me!
