Poll: would you marry someone even if it meant giving up sex forever?

[eakers]

probley not.
physical closeness, and i mean not just sex but hugging and kissing and touching etc. is important in a relationship.

the question said "no sexual activity what so ever"

at that point how are you more than good friends?

*kat. <--

Nobody who truly loved me would ask me to do that.

You know, Cobalt, I'm beginning to hope you DO end up in a sexless marriage.

Hehe... I'm just playing around with you, man.

Good grief... no one can take a joke.

Anyway, people are freakin' out about the stupidest things here... I mean, come on, you don't think you could handle a relationship without sex, that's fine. I can. I stated my opinion, you guys started freakin out and I ran with ya.

I guess I should actually say when I'm exaggerating, huh? Crap... Some people are a little stressed out.

so is it really cheating if your so is frigid?

 

[eshrai]

I think I'd just continue having sex, and skip the "getting married" part.

<< You guys are funny -so close minded. Either way, I would be able to marry someone without the hope of sexual relations. Whether you believe me or not, I don't care. I know myself, and that's not that big a deal for me since I'm not gripped by it.

What do you think about a Platonic relationship?

How did I know you were on your way in here? Well, since you're going to skewer my opinion anyway, I'll save you the post.

You want me to call you a coward?

Just answer the question as stated.

Hehe - coward or not, you're still looking for something public, grabbing at straws just to find another thing to pick at me with. Sorry bud; I answered the question and had enough fun with the flamers.

You're misunderstanding me. I'm merely curious as to what your view on a Platonic type of relationship is since you don't seem to care much about the 'sex'-aspect (which leaves me 'cold' as well).

Now, are you going to answer the question or run away with your tail between your legs?

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

If you're curious, I'll have a PM conversation with you. I do care about the sex part of a relationship. But I won't let that get in the way of marrying someone I love. That's all I'm trying to say. When it comes to marrying someone that I love and want to spend the rest of my life with, I won't let the lack of sexual relations stop that.

Make sense?

<< If you're curious, I'll have a PM conversation with you. >>

That would be acceptable.


<< I do care about the sex part of a relationship. >>

That was not what I understood from earlier posts of you.


<< But I won't let that get in the way of marrying someone I love. That's all I'm trying to say. >>

Still, you must ask yourself the question what the reason for love is, if it is not to result in the production of offspring.

A bit.

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

<< Still, you must ask yourself the question what the reason for love is >>

I've been wondering how to really explain how I feel about that for a long time.



<< That was not what I understood from earlier posts of you >>

Yeah, I have a tendency not to convey the idea that I'm trying to convey.

FFMCobalt, I don't see how you can honestly answer since you have yet to experience it. Your answer may change once you do.

Well, since my experience is going to remain my business, looks like you'll stay that way too.

:Q oops... hope I didn't sound too negative or aggressive, man. Wasn't my intension.

 

Hell no.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh, another youthful soul who has never been MARRIED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No problem. I didn't think I went too far, but if you took it that way, forgive me.

 

[Keego]

what about kissing

 

[Linux23]

FFMCobalt, i kinda agree with you in that sex shouldn't be the only part of a marriage. but you gotta admit, every human being (unless gay) has some sort of sexual desire that needs to be fulfilled. how would you fulfill that desire if you wed a person that can't fulfill them?

I voted maybe, because I would be a fool to say that sex isn't a very important piece in a union!

 

[kulki]

dude sex is like thew most important part of a relationship. Half the divorces or one way or the other related to a sex problem

 

[heartsurgeon]

<< That's usually what happens when you get married. >>



yep, married with children....

reminds me of how the two sexes think differently.....

walking down the wedding isle:
the groom is thinking "great, now i can get some whenever I want"
meanwhile the bride is thinking "great, now i only have to do it when i really want to"

 

[Nefrodite]

grumble, whats the legal term for fridgidity? denial of something is all i remember, valid reason for divorce
