Do romantic relationships need to be sexual in order to be successful?
I'm ace with a low libido and constantly see people saying that if there isn't sex than its not a good relationship. opinions??? I don't really expect anyone to reply but I was curious to see what other peeps thought (づ￣ ³￣)づ
My parents have been together since they were in high school and they only started sleeping together after they are married which is 8 years after they started dating. 8 years of relationship without sex is a long one and just proves that sex is not the main key to a happy relationship! So no worries reply
nah, you're perfectly fine just the way you are !! i'm in a gay, platonic relationship and there isn't anything sexual involved ; and, get this, my bf and i are perfectly happy.
the people who say a "good" relationship *needs* sex, are obviously wrong, don't listen to them and conform to their ideals. everyone is different.
just be you !! don't p...... reply
Of course not! As an ace(and a sex repulsed one at that), this may be a biased opinion, but if you don't want to have sex with someone that is your choice. Sex is a very physical thing, but for some people it can be emotional and romantic as well.
However, if you really don't want to have a sexual relationship with someone, letting them know befo...... reply
ima just be real with ya since nobody else is. It literally depends on who you're with. For some the lack of sex might annoy them and keep in mind keeping your partner sexually satisfied is needed for some. For someone else they might not care at all and just want love.

I don't understand with people who think relationship only matter if it revolved around sex. Don't let other people's comment decide who you really are, you are what you believe in. And as a fellow Ace, I am here for you ^_^ 1 reply
not at all. don't worry about it, every one has a different opinion on what makes a 'good' relationship, but it really depends on communicating with your partner about your boundaries! everyone loves differently, so don't stress about it reply
I've had relationships and i had both kind of relationship (with and w/o sexual things) but the thing is, good relationship comes from communication and understanding (and personality tbh). It does add flavor but someone can be good in bed but bad at handling relationships ╮(￣▽￣)╭
That was my opinion tho others might say otherwise. Anyw...... reply
Im like you as well, I have a low libido and I have a partner. Although sex is not a major factor it is still a part, its like a different kind of intimate moment that you and your partner shares. Well as for me, my partner really didnt mind much if we dont have sex in a week or such as long as we cuddle and give kisses. reply
Personally, i'd like a relationship to be sexual, but it's totally not needed. I could totally picture myself living peacefully in a cottage with my girlfriend just being fluffy n shit. Smex is just an added bonus
