    Default How important is sex in a relationship?

    This was on MSN and a few of us were discussing it.

    If you were starting a reltionship, and the other person was great except the sex was lousy, would it be the end of the relationship?

    If they were great they'd not have any problem listening and learning, nor would they feel inadequate if you spoke of how to improve the sex. So, no.

    It would not be the end of the relationship.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
    - -- Aristotle

    If everything else was good, I'd be patient. You can always learn and teach stuff.

    There are some learnable skills.

    Here is the reality of life. There will be times in any marriage wether through illness or even just physical seperation that sex will be on the back burner. I would stay with my husband till the day he or I died if for some reason I knew there would never be any more sex between us ever. There are some parts to love and devotion that just go deeper than sex.

    I kick them out immediately if they can’t perform to my specifications. And I bark orders during it too. Sometimes I yell out “wtf are you doing?”

    Q: Senator Obama, would you take the same pledge? No tax increases on people under $250,000?

    OBAMA: I not only have pledged not to raise their taxes, I've been the first candidate in this race to specifically say I would cut their taxes.

    Sex is an important part of a relationship. I think the key is to make sure the partner is satisfied. Sexual frustration can lead to other relationship problems.. We all know that when you have a good lay how all that stress disappears for at least awhile.

    Is sexual compatability all about techniques that can be taught?

    I think a willingness to please is a part of that compatibility.
