The guy I've just met told me that ''sex'' shouldn't be an important thing to consider in a relationship. I don't agree with him and also surprised to see a guy's reaction like this. What do you guys think? How important is sex to you in a relationship?
When things are good in sexual life in relationship, it can be like an exhilarating thrill. But, if it's not working, it can feel like a bumpy, not-so-fun ride.
Now, if the whole sex thing takes a back seat, watch out for signs of emotional distance. It could affect the overall connection and intimacy. Communication might get a bit strained, and you might notice changes in your partner's behavior or mood. It's like the missing puzzle piece that can make the whole picture a bit blurry.
Keep an eye on how you both are feeling and if you're on the same page. If things seem off, it's worth having an open and honest chat. Remember, every relationship is unique, so there's no one-size-fits-all answer. Keep that love boat sailing smoothly! 😊🚢

Im venting so I’m sorry to anyone who reads this.
I feel like sex is also important not that important but for someone like me who communicates through physical touch I just feel like sex is important to me and it was important to him at one point in time. But he always wanted to fuck me in the ass but I always said no till I gave in and tried it and hated it. But he always begged for it but it hurt and never felt good for me only him I’d even end up crying from the pain but he wanted to continue so he could cum and feel good while I was in pain. I regretted letting him try once cuz then he treat me nice during sex even make me feel so good unlike before but he only did it so he could ask to fuck me in the ass cuz a woman’s ass even my ass was a bigger turn on for him than pussy was. He once said if he had to choose he’d give up pussy for ass but I said no. He then told me we’re no longer having sex cuz he’s finding it harder and harder to cum in my pussy but can cum right away in my ass even if I’m in pain. And I know I ask him to be rough but he’s to rough ends up hurting me even made me bleed from back there cuz he kept trying to go in when I said no and said it hurt to much. We even got lube and other things to make it easier for me but I hated it so much but he wouldn’t take no for an answer and when he did especially if we we’re already in the middle of fucking he’d stop get mad at me and complain about blue balls and not being able to cum and you know what I didn’t care anymore cuz if all he wanted was my ass even though I said no I said it hurt me and he even made me bleed back there a couple times forcing himself on me then fuck it I love him but no sex I’ll be a fucking nun the rest of my life. I didn’t per say hate him but I hated how he acted how he hurt me and didn’t care to stop how he forced himself on me when I said no. I love him but I’m falling apart I don’t know what to do and I don’t know if I can leave him.

For me growing up I didn't think it was important even though I saw people on TV doing it. I figured it took a lot of courage to be naked and ask a lady for sex and I was shy around women. I've even experienced sexual performance anxiety, kinda embarrassing.
People talk about how important sex is and still break up over petty issues. I don't think it's that important. You get horny, have sex, cum/orgasm and have no desire for sex afterwards. An orgasm is only temporary and I can always masturbate. For those who can't do without sex just make sure you find someone who likes as much sex as you do. Good luck!
The whole point of a relationship is to be with only one person. If you are not having sex, then there is no reason to be exclusive. The biggest reason for exclusivity is to know your partner isn’t having sex with others and for me that is vitally important if l am giving her oral. I think you know where l am coming from on that.
If you are in a relationship without sex you both have friend zoned each other. The difference between two people that have been best friends for any length of time is there is no sex. You may not be in love with each other, but you do love one another.

Very important , what’s the point of getting into a relationship with someone if you don’t want to have intimacy and affection with them as much as possible? He sounds like a Simp to be honest
Well, you are 34 and ofcourse in prime of your womanhood. Sex is as important as food for you. I am assuming the guy you are dating will be around same age. It's natural sex is important for him. But then there are people with low libido or low testosterone who don't feel the hunger for sex much. However , any person in early 30s will agree that they would want sex everyday
Sex is very important. It's true we don't really need it 3 or 4 times a week (but that's nice)... But I was with someone once who didn't want sex ever... It was tolerable for a while but eventually the sexual frustration became overwhelming... I was always angry and we fought a lot.
A wise person, when ask "How important is sex in a relationship." said "If the sex is good, not very important, if the sex is not good, very, very important."
It's really important to me. It helps us grow stronger together. It makes our bond stronger each time we do it.
relatively low on the list, but quite nice. doesn't have to be the best ever or anything. it's a good way to feel closer to the person you love.
Not important at all. If it happens, cool. If it doesn't, cool
I think you misunderstood him. I think he was trying to say sex is a reward of good relationship. He was trying to say sex isn't important if you meet the right person because a healthy sex life will be the result of that.
Not that important sex doesn't need to be the primary focus in a relationship
Sex isn't ALL what a relationship is but, it does make a relationship, a relationship. I mean, "friends" don't have sex, correct?
To me, very important. Maybe he just has a low sex drive.
Extremely important to me.
Very. He’s probably just insecure.
Pretty damn important.
It's very important.
Very important!
Bottom, I'm asexual
