Me date new person four moon. But we kiss only once.

Big news in cave! Thog, strong hunter, make sad face. He walk with Rita for four moons now. They hold hands, touch face, sometimes quick kiss. But Thog say, "Me want more! Just one real mouth-press in all this time!" Thog confused, scratch head. He like Rita, she good mate, but Thog want big fire, not just small spark. Rita, she good woman. But long time ago, she have bad mate. Twenty-two winters she with him. He make her feel small, make her sad in head, always hit her with hard words. Now, Rita slow. She careful. Thog wonder, "Why Rita not give big love? Me good mate!" He talk to Elder, "Me want big fire with Rita, but only small smoke now." This big rock in Thog's cave-heart. Grook, wise elder cavewoman, known for her calming voice: "Bad mate leave dark mark. Rita need slow time, gentle touch. Thog must wait, like waiting for good berry season. Show love, show safe cave." Zog, young, eager hunter, always ready for action: "Me say, if not happy, find new mate! Life short, chase mammoths, not shadows! Many good women in cave!" Ugh, Tribe Leader, known for settling disputes: "We must understand mates. Past pains make present slow. Thog need to show safe cave. Big heart, not just big hunt, make happy tribe. Talk, talk with gentle words." Story by Korg from Caveman Talk Fire, on the scene.
