If its good sex, I suppose, but it does depend on how bad the other areas are..and you could hardly class it as a "proper" relationship if youre only in it for the sex.

Not really, thats precisely the question that Chav's ask themselve everyday. The consequence is a divorce rate that drarfs anything else in Europe.

sex can't make everything better in a relationship and a relationship can't survive based purely on sex ...

But so many relationships survive on that... on the average routine. I've read claims that as long as the sex is good, people will remain together. It's as soon things aren't running smoothly in bed (which of course can be for other reasons), that's when things turn rough. It's as if what happens in the bedroom symbolises the good health of the relationship.

By the way, I read this in the Metro newspaper in the tube. You can think it's a load of crock.

i know people who have stuck together purely because the sex is good ... not for me personally

If the only reason people are together is because of the sex then they would be better off being just friends with extras.
A relationship is an emotional bond. it's a lot more then sex.

it might keep you together for a little longer, but ultimately, it's not a good idea.
Sex is a contributing factor to a good relationship, but in the end, staying with someone just for that is as bad as staying with them just for money...it would be tricky to be happy. :-s

Love leads to Sex,
But Sex does not lead to Love..

Imagine she caught you flirting outside or you have betrayed her trust, it is hard for me to think that a good sex will solve everything.

Moreover, it's even harder for me to conjure up a reason why she even wants to have sex with you in the first place.

In general circumstances, I believe a girl genuinely loves a guy and trust that guy to engage in sexual activities with him. Hence if the girl felt that the guy is not treating her well, cannot be trusted, she will not engage in sexual activities with him.

Yes, I second Bharj's views.

I'd wait till we get married before we have sex. (maybe I am just being too conservative)

Me and my girlfriend felt very happy together even though there are no sex involved. Love is really not all about sex. :smile:
