It's possible if someone's morals are that important to them. We're all human and it's very easy for us to fall as victims to temptation. If we can avoid listening to the flesh then it's possible to wait until marriage before having sex, as long as both can agree on it.

No disrespect, but you must be either doing it wrong or with the wrong person.

I am still unclear about the question posed...are we talking about abstinence until marriage or are we talking about a life time without sex?

Overrated in that its not the be all, end all to a relationship, which is what I thought it was when I was younger, and not having it. Now that I've had it, yes, it can be great, but a good relationship is not built solely on sex. A person's best sex organ is located between their ears, IMO.

That's what I meant...

I do agree that you cannot base a relationship solely on sex, however, I do not believe that a man and a woman can be in an intimate relationship without ever having sex.

God created us as sexual creatures, so it is difficult for me to bleieve that a man and a woman can be in a long-term relationship, be physically and emotionally attracted to each other and never interact in a sexual manner towards each other....no kissing, touching, etc. Not saying that it can't be done, but I think it would be very difficult.

I think I'm unclear about the question.

A life time without sex, probably not. But if there are mutual feelings, then probably not..

What about the kissing, touching ect. but still no sex?

I concur nikki1920... and everyone looks at me crazy when I say that, but I recognize sex for what it is: exercise, a way to relieve energy and frustation. Some people like to draw a line betwen sex & making love saying the emotions make the difference, BUT you're still going thru the same motions, whether you are in DEEP love or just having sex for sex's sake

Maybe it's because I have found my soul mate and I am deeply and madly in love with my husband of 11 years. To me there is nothing better than the intimate time that we spend together. In those moments we become closer. If God did not want us to enjoy sex he wouldn't have made it so wonderful.

Reality......REALITY!!!!
Yeah you can have a relationship without sex...
If you’re living in 1952 next to leave it to Beaver.
Truth is, it's 2006, and sex before marriage or sex in a relationship that hasn't had time to flourish is about as common as hotdog rolls on a fat man's neck. Who is really to blame? Or should I say who is really ready for whom. If you can't see yourself having sex so soon, or before marriage, you shouldn't even worry about having a relationship, cause as horrible as it sounds, truth is most people expect to have sex in a relationship. Not just the guys, girls get horny too. If you can't see yourself in a relationship without sex, then you need to find yourself someone that is as sexual as you are... All this, trying to pair up with people who are obviously not compatible, then turning around and complaining isn't going to work. And I hate to say it, but there are a lot of "nice" guys out there not concerned with sex who get overlooked cause they don't look a certain way, or act a certain way and... You know the rest.

THANK YOU!!!

Sex IS great, don't get me wrong. The idea of sex is overrated. The ACT of sex is one of God's greatest creations. Does that make sense?

But if two people are BOTH attracted to each other, then yes, it's probably almost impossible to NOT have sex.

Who's great question was this, anyway? lol..

Sex/making love = same difference to me. I don't think there is a difference between making love and the other thing, except intensity and amount of curse words and wether or not my perm is sweated out or my hair is just messed up a bit.
