Forgive me for crashing...

In my opinion a relationship without sex is quite possible. Like someone said in a previous post, you have to keep yourself out of "dangerous" situations in which you would be tempted or you'd let your thoughts wander. If you are determined, truly determined not to do something, then you won't.

LOL!!! :p

I hear that!!! I have become a celibate freak. Not DOING it don't stop the THINKING it!:D

ETA: This is the pot calling the kettle black on the TMI part, because I sometimes post somewhat TMI. Not the being found passed out from masturbating in a bath tub part. I wanted to clear that up. :o :D

ROTFL!!! 2 much-2funny! :p

I do believe that many MARRIED couples have relationships without sex. :p

But to to answer the question: Yes, do I believe that unmarried couples can have a relationship without marriage.

Both people would have to agree not to. If one of them wants to wait until marriage and the other one doesn't then it may cause a problem. I think it all depends on how much they love each other. If you love someone enough, you'll wait, but it would be really hard to. It's hard to see it as a serious relationship without intamacy.

I agree with cheerful greek....I am in a new relationship and we have had the sex conversation and the guy I am seeing is really understanding and knows that I have my limits and he respects that. I feel kind of bad for him sometime because in the past he was used to intimacy in his other girlfriends, but I am still determined.

I hope you don't think intimacy and sex are the same thing.

No I know that they are two different things. When I said that in the past that he was used to intimacy I meant in a sexual manner.

POSSIBLE
 
I just want to say, from a person who was in a relationship for over two years WITHOUT SEX, it's very possible. I loved him then and I love him still, it was a decision we made and it worked.

I have been in a relationship with the same guy since the middle of our senior year of high school and we have not had sex.
Originally, it was strictly for religious purposes, but now we have been together long enough (4.5 years) that it's something sacred for us that we will experience if/when the time is right. We used to be very tempted to "cross the line" but now it's the norm and we don't even talk about it. He says his friends don't understand and they give him hell for it, but he's not looking for them to accept his decisions about his personal life.

I do know that not every man is willing to be this honest and I consider myself lucky.
