People don't marry because they are compatible in bed, but they tend to stay married when they are.

Nothing worse than buyers remorse, all ways test drive before buying!

Wow, apparently love isn't in the equation? Seems to me like the more society is based around sex and free love, the more marriages fall apart. It's not like grandma and grandpa "test drove" eachother to find out if they would work. More than likely, they married for love, something this generation seems to know nothing about. /rant

That is no fun. I am sure they will probalby get a divorse once they see that they wont be sexually attracted. Ok I am just kidding. maybe they will do fine. But I do not believe in that abstinence crap in schools.

I don't think this bodes well for the marriage.

Smells like some repressed Religious or Psychological issues in the mix for one or both of them. Or maybe one of them is really gay.

Good luck.

Its terrible isn't it? Everyone is out for a good, meaningless f*ck, another reason I find bars and clubs almost repulsive.

Only in America... would such a natural and healthy thing such as sharing a kiss with a significant other immediately digress into "good meaningless f*ck talk."

No wonder so many people in America with weird repressed sexual issues. We have to get that Puritanical heritage behind us. Just not healthy.

Sorry if you interpreted what I said that way, I was referring to Frozen's post which I quoted... maybe you should read it.

My mistake for assuming that you and Frozen's comments had something at all to do with the OP. Go ahead with your free flowing consciousness.

That's where marriage counseling comes into play. A good pastor should be discussing things with them before the marriage to make sure the expectations are right.

I knew well enough that I was attracted to my wife. We didn't have to test things out.
