As someone else mentioned I think that physical intimacy and closeness (including sex) are pretty much wired into us as a need. I know I'm generally not as happy being single as I am when I'm seeing someone.
Not that I can't be happy being single but after a few months I start to miss it.
Is it something that is novelty that wears off, or something that is necessary to happiness and sense of fulfillment? Or is it something that has its place but shouldn't be of utmost importance? Explain your reasoning.
It is an inextricable part of my relationship and I would not be without it. But while it never "wears off" I do not think I would call it a total necessity in that I can go periods without it at all. It does not have to be regular or constant - it just has to be there as part of my relationship.
Whether in the future - especially with old age - this requirement will modify over time I do not know. But that is how it is now.
It's overrated and very sad that it's become the most important thing to many people these days.
