How important is sex in your relationship?

[Drivingmecrazy30]

Just that really? Are there other things that are more important to make your relationship work?

Davidburn nobody is saying that marriage is just about sex!

Well DH and I have been married 6 years and are very happy thank you- sexually and in all other ways so bog off with your patronising 'radiculous' advice. Are you a wedding planner from Eastern Eurpoe by any chance?

Ha ha ha ha how ridiculously depressing.

Was discussing what would happen if the sex had to stop with DP this morning. (After sex).

We've got memories to trade on for bloody years.

davidburn your spelling is shit

Very important. I spent years married to someone happy for once a week Sunday night dull quick sex.

I always knew I had a higher sex drive - I can't explain how it felt to be turned down time after time.

DP and I have a great sex life. Even after two years together, with him having type 1 diabetes and needing drugs, and me having HSV and needing time out. It's different and amazing every time and I love it. We can do it three times a night, or once a week, but we always seem in tune with each other. Sex isn't always PIV, but it's our way of connecting and part of our loving.

I wouldn't go back to begging, apologising or having crap unloving sex again.

It's very important for me but unfortunately less so for my partner. I can't remember the last time we actually had sex. Definitely at easter, maybe once since, with the odd fiddle here and there. Tragic. Those of you talking about once or more per week - I salute you !

Sex has always been very important to me even outside of a good relationship.
I wanted sex everyday for 7 years with my ex, minus a few weeks after having our 2 dc. It is probably why our relationship limped on for a while longer than it really should have.
The sex was good and it made us get on better I found.

With my current partner we started having an exclusive fwb set up 2.5 years ago, this initial attraction has led us into the best relationship of my life. He is utterly wonderful, truly. I feel so blessed to have him in my life and the sex is even more incredible because I have all these positive emotional feelings about him.
We kiss all the time, we hold hands, we laugh and discuss sex with each other easily. We are soon to move in but only see each other for 3 days a week at the moment. Even though I have 2 dc we still manage to sneak at least 3-4 times in during our time together.
