    and why not,relationships(true ones) are not built on or around sex,that's a by product in my eyes,commitment to each other is more important then get your clothes off,sex can begged,borrowed,or bought anywhere anytime any price,im not against sex at all a true,loving relationship can be sustained without it and im sure that in some circumstances make the relationship stronger

    Hi. I personally think that sex ruins a realationship when the couple is not married. My reasons are because: 1. Sex becomes sex alll the time

    2. Everything starts to evolve around sexual reasons...for example. one person in the relationship may not want to be intimate at the moment and the other just starts to feel and think its because they dont want them anymore or anything in that nature. 3. Sexual intercourse should be for two people who love one another and share a true commitment with eachother. many couples who are running around doing sexual things with one another are really truly NOT loving one another. That also comes to the fact if the two people know what true love is from puppy love or infatuation.

    4. I think relationships do not need to be based around sex all the time..a person in a relationship can be intimate with one another without all the sexually actions...having fun is not always having sexual intercourse.

    I hope this gives you a "somewhat kind of theory" of my opinion. I think people should brush away from sexual intercourse until the approipriate time. Too many diseases and careless actions are happening these days because all what people want is sexual intercourse. I also think that when a person enters a relationship with sex...and then the relationship ends...people get hurt and this is unnescary. God Bless.

    Sex is a "lust of the flesh" and is not necessary to sustain life, as eating food to obtain nutrients and nourishment is.

    The word passionate is a desire or deep feeling. You can have a deep feeling in regards to a true friend, without sex.

    So yes, you can have a monogamous relationship that is passionately fulfilling without sex of any kind.

    Nope. There is too much sex on TV, on the radio, movies, etc. God made us sexual beings so it is a natural thing. For certain people everything else can be great except this particular aspect and then other parts of the relationship start to break down.

    yes, because love isnt just about sex. What if your future husband/wife were ill and couldnt have sex? Would you leave them for that reason? Or what if they had accident and couldnt perform, would you leave them? I would hope that if someone made a commited monogamous relationship that they realized these life events are possible and can happen.

    well it depends on what;s the couple is like. imean if you want to keep the "flame" still on you have to have imagination.
