Could you live without...

[Strider1002]

Okay, I'm bored, so...

Say you meet the perfect mate. Like, you made a list of everything you want in the ideal spouse and you found that person and they meet your every standard perfectly. They also want to spend their life with you. BUT they don't want to have sex, ever.

Would you marry them?

Personally... I would.

 

[Rhye]

Why wouldn't they want to have sex?

 

[MehGuy]

Yeah, sex isn't that important to me anyways.

 

[MrMoe]

Definitly

 

[RayofSun]

Why wouldn't they want to have sex?

My exact question.

 

[MehGuy]

They be asexuals.

 

[Strider1002]

Let's say asexual. They find you attractive, but they'll never want sex.

 

[Saucy]

Why not just be best friends then? Sexual attraction is one of the main fundamental differences between a friend and a significant other.

There's still kissing and cuddling, all that good stuff...

 

[Saucy]

I'm on the fence about it. If we were absolutely, madly in the love with each other and she had a condition that prevented her from having sex, yes I would marry her. There are still other things that quell sexual desire. I wouldn't NOT marry someone just because of sex. But to me, fulfilling sexual desire and having children are the big reasons for marry. Even Paul said it's better not to marry unless your sexual desire becomes so strong you cannot handle it to avoid sin.

As bad as I want kids, if she had a condition that prevented her from sex/kids, I would still consider it. If it was just because she was asexual, had no interest or just didn't want to, then I probably wouldn't. She'd make a good best friend to hang out with.

Well if there is kissing and cuddling the sex would naturally follow.

I for one have had a sexy young girl and had my passion filled days and nights full of rampant sex.

I think I could live with someone and not have sex with them. I am forty years old now, sex is not as big of a thing to me as it once was when I was a young man.

 

[jaapottery]

I would say no. Am I sex crazy? Maybe, but it is very important as Saucy said. This is part of love and intimacy. I could respect if there sex drive was less than mine, might not like it, but respect it. I heard a recent survey that happy married couples have sex an average of 3 or 4 times a week. I'm down with that.

This is a hard question. I don't think I could marry someone if I can't have sex with them. Sex, to me, plays a very very important role in relationships.

 

[Guy Incognito]

I mean this in no judgement or condemnation of that person or people like that person, but no, I don't think I would. While sex isn't the most important thing, it is something I do want and would value in a marriage. Also, while not at all against adoption, I would like to try to have kids the good ol fashioned way. So, yeah.

I'd also def be down with the above survey results. Just sayin.

 

[Jupiter Drops]

No, I can't. I just can't.




Abandon relationship.

 

[orangeness365]

i would have trouble keeping my hands off of them

 

[MacFall]

No. One of the reasons I want to get married is to have intimate physical affection with someone. I already have friendships with everything else. I don't understand why she would want to marry me in the first place if she didn't want that.

 

[ks777]

No way. If they could still give good oral then maybe, but it would have to be pretty good.

 

[Happy to help]

no i want kids! like my own kids! from me!

 

[Blank123]

Nope.
