Search Results: physical differences in relationships

I recently read an article that talked about the difference between a man and woman's views on sex in a serious relationship. They suggested that men need sex and physical intimacy to feel loved. They feel rejected and unloved if they are denied it (whether intentionally or not) in a relationship.

Women, on the other hand, don't need sex to feel loved but need words and reassurance. As a girl, I could not have sex with my boyfriend for months and would know he still loves me (through his words and other actions). I'm not sure he could say the same, though.

Guys: Would you agree with this? Do you feel unloved if you don't have sex for long periods of time with your partner?

Girls: Do you feel as though you need to be told you're loved to feel it? Or do you feel it through sex?

I'm not just talking about on GaG. From my own experience on GaG, girls pretend to live in this utopia where anything you'll ever want and need can be purchased using love, and money and finances play no role in how women see men.

There's a difference between pretending that money isn't the most important thing in a man, and pretending that money doesn't matter at all! I don't think people appreciate just how deep of a lie it is to say that money doesn't matter or all, or that it matters just a little bit. But I digress, everyone is free to BS themselves and those around them.

So, I'm curious to hear from both guys and girls on this issue. In your own personal experience, would you say that girls or women are generally comfortable and honest about the fact that money is an important consideration when it comes to men and relationships? In the sense that how guys are generally open and honest about how sex or physical appearances are important to them when it comes to women.

You can feel free to explain, especially if the answer is no.
