Again just a simple question. Can you stay in a relationship thats just all love and everything that makes it good, but there cannot be any sex in your relationship?
If one we're to ask or wonder what sex exactly means here, which things and acts it include, just take it as what it means to you.

Sex is a very important thing to people in general; but different folks, attach different levels of importance to it. If two people's needs are lower than the population in general and they are happy with that, then there is no reason to suppose that it would pose a risk to their relationship. There are plenty of other things to break up over. |

If I could still have sex with other girls, then yes, I could stay in a sex less relationship. |

How do you have sex if you don't like being touched by another person?

How do you have sex if you don't like being touched by another person? With a strap-on.  Seriously though; it depends on how you define sex. You could try mutual masturbation for instance. |

A very good friend of mine has MS and so does his wife, they make no secret about the fact that they are now incapable of sex and have been for over 20 years, but I have never known two people to be more in love.
Sex is an important part of any loving relationship, but if a relationship is meant to be then it should be strong enough to survive without sex.

I find the whole sex thing messy and uncomfortable and manipulatory. I don't find it important. Maybe a diving suit might help. Plus once when I tried, the girl said that it was the worst experience in her life.

If you're not going to f*ck or make out, you might as well just call it a "friendship" rather than a relationship.
But sure - you obviously can love people (family, friends, etc.) without having sex with them.

No not quiet dapapree  more just about a relationship without sex would be very boring but like zenemu said if the relationship is all about sex it wont survive so you need a different kind of connection to explain and it may be something that may be beyound the relm of applied science in understanding it(I am not talking about god but the persons spiritual connection to one another which is more in the relms of philosphy or theology) |

what you said zen, has been said to me once before. I guess no matter how improbable it may be, it is not impossible - for such to exist, for a person capable of such love to exist.
something quick for marco, it can be learned, do not feel bad for it is not a thing of permanence unless you wish it to be

Loving a friend or loving and loving a partner are two different kinds of love entirely. |

I think you will find it is actually not that uncommon. For certain health reasons (certain stages and types of diabetes or heart specific heart conditions, cancer treatments or as a result of an accident) for example, sex may not be possible for prolonged periods, if ever. If a relationship is not strong enough to survive that, then perhaps it wasn’t that strong in the first place. |

yes, but your example were about people who are forced into it though. people who are actually capable of it and normally do do it, then foregoing the act on ones own will for the sake of the lover is something else too
