Could your relationship last without intercourse?



  • Really don't think it could.
  • It'd be tough, who really knows.
  • Yes, difficult for sure, but yes.
  • Other.

Pretty sad point of view, if you ask me. I'm sure your partner feels very special.

Thanks for your honesty, sumguy.

Tis true I suppose, many couples out there aren't that able to keep the fire burning without a solid physical relationship. Not all couples are the same, for sure for sure.

Lady Para and I were pretty great friends for years before finally getting married. During that time, the of IC didn't really serve as a deal breaker for us...not after the first year, the second, the third, you name it.

Yep, I admit there'd be a big difference in stopping cold turkey now that we've enjoyed each other these past years, but the actual care for each other is still what our relationship is based on anyway. Just more proof that each relationship is different, huh? :)

Personally, never needed intercourse to have a satisfying sex life. To me, it was always just another 'item' on the menu, and -- even though it's been enjoyable many times through the years -- quite overrated so much of the time and by so many.

Cuddling, kissing, wrestling, massaging, verbal tenderness, oral, and too many more to even name, to choose from! The end is listless.

Only had 1 lover in my life where intercourse was 'de rigueur' and the main focal point, and I think you can guess how long THAT partnership lasted.

At least 2 of my gay gal friends have told me I'd make a great lesbian, which I consider a great compliment! I feel honored being a male, but at the same time have no qualms in coming back a lesbian in my next life! It's all a sublime cosmic journey anyway, where the prize goes to those who share best, love most and excede their own expectations.
