"Undisclosed Desires."

Sex ... I couldn't help but recognize how individuals have various beliefs on the particular subject matter. In lieu of religious circumstances, some individuals may carry a very biased outlook on it in general. However, I'm here solely to shed a little light on this specific topic...

I'm fully aware of how some embrace their religious values - Not having sex until after they are married. Also, I'm sure plenty nonreligious folk believe in this as well. I'd first like to say how I have absolutely no problem with those who feel/think this way. However, there are those who deem sex as 'unnecessary' and 'wrong' all together. That's what influenced me to write this post. There's nothing wrong with sex by any means ... There's especially nothing wrong with making love to the person that you're in love with. Sex is the ultimate form of exchanging love after all. I couldn't help but wonder ... Must you first exchange vows before exchanging love? It's common knowledge and sense that sex is highly important to relationships, especially these days. What's a relationship without that intense physical chemistry and connection, riddled with passion? Where at any given moment, you feel as if though you have to have that person right then and there? If you've never felt that in your relationship, you should reevaluate the situation. If there's zero physical allure, then that's not a relationship ... It's a friendship. However, I'm not attempting to disregard the mental connection - As that too is a very important aspect in relationships. You simply cannot be with somebody who is incapable of holding an intellectual conversation or serious discussion when it's necessary.

The absence of having sex in a relationship can be extremely fatal. There are numerous detrimental outcomes that can easily arise in a relationship due to it. I'd say the outstanding issue would have to be cheating and unfaithfulness. Individuals inevitably have sex drives' (Some more persistent than others), and if in the relationship the absence of sex is too prolonged for someones needs, they very will may turn to outside resources for pleasure. Even to the dismay of the other individual, that outside resource may unfortunately be another person. If you're the person whose cheated on your partner for the intimate gratification you've been deprived of for however long, what are you to do in this predicament? Carry the guilt of unfaithfulness on your shoulders not telling your partner? Or coming clean to them taking the likely risk of splitting up in the end of the disaster?

Here's a solution for you : Refrain from cheating ... If your needs are unmet to the point you start contemplating cheating, it's imperative you have a serious discussion with your partner about it. Avoid the confusion and heartbreak by talking these things out. If your partner is still persistent in avoiding sex and won't budge for whatever reason(s), something has to be done. Splitting up may be the course of action that's best for the both of you. They can continue on with their conquest of trying to find an individual capable of abiding to their certain beliefs that they value so greatly, leaving you to explore yourself and the world once again, having all of the mind-blowing sex that you desire, eventually finding that one individual who does it for you that you can stay with for an eternity.

Don't feel bad for breaking it off with somebody because of the absence of sex ... Great sex is highly important to having a successful relationship, it's a completely natural act, it's totally fabulous and will never go out of style. The moral of the story is it's always easy finding an outlet for your computer, but it's a completely different ballgame when in regards to your desires and your frustration. Relationships, no matter how good are inevitably a series of compromises. But I'm just wondering as to how much of us we should be willing to sacrifice for the other person before we stop being ourselves. Don't walk that fine line, second-guessing who you are and changing yourself for somebody - It's simply not worth it, especially when you could be out and finding that one individual you're completely free to be yourself with.

  1. I couldn't agree any more. I'm loving that closing paragraph ... Perfection! How could anyone not see the importance of sex when in relationships? It is what will separate friendship from relationship. Terrific, digging all that sensible brutality!
