100% yes. This is actually the type of love I am aiming to achieve one day even if it doesn't last for 10 years. Here's something for everyone to keep in mind: there are four main languages of love. The most popular obviously is physical touch. I would say I personally fall into the second most popular which is quality time but for a different reason. Most people want to spend quality time with someone in the sense of spending time outside of work. I can certainly respect that but for me personally I am so old school that I would prefer to see what the person is like in person including at their job even if they try explaining to me because they could explain one thing to me but I see something completely different for whatever reason. This is also the main reason why I identify as asexual since I have made the decision to remain a virgin for my entire life even after marriage so I can hopefully find a deeper meaning to love beyond sex and beyond physical touch if possible but I always make sure to state these things straight away so I'm not falsely attracting someone. I've always wondered to myself wow I have protected my body for my entire life but is it really necessary to share my body after I married someone or is it possible for both of us to continuously respect our bodies since we have both protected our bodies up to that point? What's the point of stopping something like virginity that has become a part of you? Is sex the true meaning of marriage or is there an even deeper meaning that doesn't require sex just because you are married? I definitely believe a sexless marriage is possible even if it never works out for me but I would imagine that kind of relationship could be more beneficial because if you think about it sex can create chemicals inside someone's brain that they crave to experience whereas if your not having sex with someone and they haven't had sex before then you both have never experienced the chemicals that can drive people to crave sex with others even when they don't get sex at home.
0 0 0 0Yeah but you'll be walking into the relationship not expecting or wanting sex. That is different than walking into it believing you'll have sex at the very least, once every month. My main love language is also quality time. Which can literally be as simple as sitting next to each other doing opposite things. It's just being there with them that matters. I am pro-asexuality but your reasoning confuses me. Why do you believe that being physically intimate negates emotional and spiritual intimacy? Sex heightens those things, yes. But it alone can't create a meaningful, loving relationship. Those same chemicals while having sex are evident in things as simple as hand touches and hugs or even eye contact. So would you go as far as to never look at the person you wish to love for the sole sake that you want an unbiased response to them? You'll never love them then. Every action we make, every step we take requires a chemical reaction in our bodies so that reason doesn't make sense/add up.
And why would having sex mean that you're not protecting your body? You can't love someone if you can't trust them. That goes beyond. Someone who loves you will do everything in their power to protect you. Do you mean that you guys would continue to look out for yourselves? Cause, again, that's not love. Love isn't that selfish. If I and my partner were walking on the street and a kid ran past me, startling me and making me trip, would it then be wrong for my partner to help me protect my body by catching me? Would it be wrong of them because it is my sole duty to protect myself?
Your virginity doesn't have to become a part of you. You don't have to overhype it. Again, having or not having sex doesn't stop the hormones for attraction from happening. Sex heightens a relationship but if you NEED to have sex frequently for you to have a strong and meaningful relationship, then you're doing things wrong. Intimacy, something that few people choose to harness, is the MOST powerful tool and contributor to a healthy and lasting relationship. Not sex. Creating a strong emotional bond is how you keep it going. But if your partner's love language is physical touch, it's your duty as their spouse to make sure they're getting that (that does not have to be by having sex with them). Just like it's their duty as your spouse to ensure that you're getting that quality time that you need.
If they both don't care about sex sure
1 0 0 0I personally don't get it
Not after having so many partners before. Though that amount is considered small now
There are many people that are asexual or happy enough to just masterbait

I suppose it's possible, but I think that it's extremely unlikely. Firstly, people do have sex drives and sexual needs. Sex is probably the fourth strongest basic human drive behind sleeping, eating, and drinking (unless you're asexual). Secondly, I think that if you're going that long without sex there's something else that's an underlying problem in the relationship. My first marriage was largely sexless for the last two years, but that's because my ex-husband was emotionally negligent (and even abusive at times). I couldn't really connect to him. That significantly decreased my desire for sex. With my husband now we have sex all the time in part because the emotional needs are fulfilled in our relationship.

It’s possible but very unlikely. I don’t consider online release as cheating but some people do.

1 12Is it POSSIBLE? Yes.
Is it PROBABLE? No.1 1 0 0Sexless marriage?
1 0 0 0Yeah, it happens. Cheating opportunities sometimes just happen, but to a significant extent you have to sort of look for them. You can just drift along in a sexless relationship indefinitely because there are reasons you're not leaving.
Though I'd say 'D' is pretty likely.1 0 0 0I get the loving the other person too much to leave, I just don't get the dynamic when one still very much wants it and the other refuses to have any form of it with the other person
Like, not even masturbating next to the other person
More people have sex drives that go to zero then you likely realize. It's not an uncommon scenario for one spouse to decide they don't want to have sex any more. Not majority, but it's really not uncommon. "I get the loving the other person too much to leave" 10 years in it's going to be more than just love keeping them together - most likely kids is a major factor.
It's possible, if both are in syntony, but if both haven't been on the same page for 10 years, that's insane.
1 0 0 0Of course it's possible. But sounds like a miserable life.
1 0 0 0We are all biological beings. We crave sex, whether it's a blowjob, handjob, from a prostitute, or from your partner. When one of you stops having sex with you it means they're having sex with someone. If you're going 10 years without sex you will need to find a Gloryhole or another sex partner.
1 1 0 0That's what I'm thinking
Like, even if you're not actually having sex with someone, your sexual energy needs to go somewhere
That's why God invented sex toys.
Sexless marriages are not real marriages lol.
1 0 0 0I wouldn’t.
1 0 0 0I care about sex... so I am not really into have a sexless marriage... but I am not in to cheating.. I would file for divorce thou.
1 0 0 0I feel that.
who?
0 0 1 0Someone.
is it you?
I'm 23. How could I have been married for 10 years?
I’m in this marriage. I’ve been faithful, but it’s sooo difficult.
0 0 0 0Why do you stay?
Yes, if you really love the person. There are other things you can do in terms of intimacy. Its not the sex that made me marry the person but other factors😊
1 0 0 0I get it that but it seems that you are both in accordance that you don't want/need it. What if she wanted it more?
I was never really into a lot of sex though but will try to satisfy her if she wanted it more. People can control their sexual desires and there's always masturbation. If my partner no longer desire sex I would be ok with masturbation. Its only a temporary feeling and you don't stay horny for ever.😊
Sometimes you do. People's body chemicals and dispositions are different. Masturbation is great but it's not the same as a loving connection with your partner. I'm not saying that they can't control it but having to do so for years gets taxing
Which one doesn't want sex him her or both
0 0 0 0Her.
