Not at all, sex and love are miles apart, I can have sex with someone I do not love but I could not marry and have children with someone I don't love... My husband and I have a sex life that is pretty much no existent since having the kids, and it has not affected our relationship one little bit, we are still as close as we were, when we were at it all the time. Sex is an added bonus to a good relationship, it no where near makes one

well, i think it is important but not essential if that makes sense??? :roll: as lucy and paula said, it is nice yes to still have the spark but once children come along and you lose your sex drive a little, it is not the end of the world or your relationship if you are a strong couple with a strong relationship anyway. Dean would never finish with me because he dont get it enough ;-)

I used to think it was really important in past relationships as i thought if i didnt put out they would leave me, but now i have met lee who loves me just the way i am i have realised that its not THE most important thing.

We both go through phases where we dont want sex for months and its not an issue, it used to really really worry me and upset me but then i think that cuddling, kissing, holding hands..... are just as important now.

I think that its important but not as important as trust, laughter and companionship.

Hope all that made sense?!

Its a difficult one to answer maybe.

I think it depends entirely on the couple involved. I think that it shouldn't be based around sex, BUT when a couple first gets together, thats all its about, you see someone you like and instantly think about sex, and you cant get enough of each other, and then it leads into a relationship where you find out about each other, then love..........

We have sex a hell of a lot, our friends joke about it as we both look at each other and apparently we have "a look" and it looks like we both want it there and then despite who's there!

From working with men and knowing them pretty well, i think that men like to have sex more than women, they have urges that they cant control whereas women can. So i think that if a man was totally not getting any whatsoever from a woman for a long period of time (ie. a month is a long long time for a man) then he will be getting some kind of sexual relief, either from another woman, or most likely, his own hand!!!

I asked hubby about this this morning before he went to work and he laughed his head off.

We havent had sex for anout 2 months now for personal reasons on my part and he can assure me that after 15 hour days he just wants to cuddle and sleep and some other form of relief doenst even enter his head. Some men just havent got a high sex drive!

Prob wat was meant was if ur always refusing ur man and he wants a bit then he may go elsewere, unless he really really loves u enuf to go without. U could do wat my husbands ex did she didnt like sex so she have him oral instead , most of the tym anyways, needless to say he did go elsewere, i no i would :lol: im a horny devil :twisted:

I like sex Lizzie but at the moment cos of personal stuff i cant bring myself to do it so we are just cuddling at the moment until im back into it. I go through phases.

I think if your other half is gonna go elsewhere cos their not getting any then id prefer to be on my own anyway! :grin:
