If a guy isn't willing to do what a woman needs to get her "O", i.e. if he's a selfish lover, then he's pretty much made the decision himself, hasn't he? If that's not the issue, and the person is willing to adjust to their partner's preferences, it wouldn't be a problem.

I would not be with someone if the sex wasn't good, which you can tell early on. BUT, if I was in a relationship where things were great and something unforeseen arose that would change intimacy I would not immediately jump ship. I would try to work on things first, then seek other options.

Whoever coined that phrase has never had disgusting Chicago-style string cheese pizza or sex with my most recent ex.

No. I don't want someone just for his genitals. I want a man who is special to me, someone I love. There is more than one way to be satisfied. It's all in the effort, and it's all about love.

Depends on whether they'd be content with a sexless relationship or being drunk every time we have sex as I see no point in having bad sex. Yes if I were to break up with them I'd tell them the reason was because the sex was not good unless they were drunk.

completely depends on WHY the sex is bad, not THAT the sex is bad.

What you described isn't love.

If I were to think of love, I'd think of a mother who no matter what their kid does, they accept them as they are unconditionally. It doesn't mean they agree with everything their kid does, it doesn't mean that they will approach their kid the same way. As the kid ages, they way they interact with the kid will change, if the kid makes mistakes, they have to approach them from another angle as well. But the love is still there.

What you're thinking of is infatuation. Love isn't blind to a person's flaws. It loves them despite it.

I think of it as a garden: If it fades, it's because it's starving, and if it dies, it's because it was neglected.
So beautifully stated!

I just broke up with my boyfriend due to lack and/or no sex for 3 months. Prior to, he would only have sex with me once a month, prior to, every 3 weeks and so on.. we had hot sex in the beginning almost everyday. Then he was always tired, or stressed due to off and on employment. He's also on Medical marijuana so he sleeps a lot. I told him my feelings of frustrations and doubts but he did not put any effort nor compromised. He said he's now asexual. I don't believe that is the case. Anyway, my sexual drive is so incompatible with his that I needed to move on and be happy. I felt like we were good friends with no Romance/Sex and I was providing a girlfriend's benefits not getting anything back. He's not talking to me and is upset. I need to move on and be with someone who has the same interests and compatibility. He will just be a friend and nothing more. We both deserve what is best for both of us- Happiness.
