Does it matter that when you are over 40 do you have to be in love with a person to have a sexual relationship

It's not like it's the first time, and you really don't want to get married again. But, you miss the intimacy, and companionship!

    No. You are never too old but as with anything else one should be responsible and make sure that the other side is aware of your intentions or lack there of.

    Nope you just have to find the right women that would be willing to have a sexual relationship with no strings attached if that is what you want. And with the age thing that don't matter..

    Well, regardless of how old you are (I am 45, FYI), it seems to me that sex without love is not very fulfilling, at least not for me. "Intimacy" is not really possible without love -- sex without love is an act and, true, your bodies might be intimate but your minds won't be, and sex without emotional intimacy can often do more harm than good, psychologically speaking.

    But, hey, I am just giving you my own opinion from my own experience.

    It does not matter at any age. Look on Adult friend finders and fine someone who is looking for the same thing. You will be surprised at the number of people who feel the same as you. Good Luck.

    Not really. Sex is a physiological need. Love is something to do with mind and emotions. Need not mix the two.
