Nice regular sex with a good lookin' gal is the implied marriage contract.

The physical attraction is what we all initially start with..
The friendship/love stuff grows with time.

If the physical stuff stops too early then it all falls apart for most.

My solution is for blokes to always marry a much younger gal...it keeps the whole thing ticking long a lot longer.

If one isnt interested in sex with the same person then getting married is a waste of time.
I view sex as a major component part of the relationship but not the most integral part. Afterall, it's helps us to procreate as a species does it not?

For me, having someone who satisfies the intellectual, emotional and spiritual side of the relationship is far more important as this part rarely dies off. The sex part comes naturally and is far more gratifying long term.

On the other hand, if you view the success of a relationship based on how good they are in bed, they you are bound to fail in the long run. You'll eventually get bored of each other then look for the next fling. Where's the commitment?
