Google is your friend. Try "Platonic", so named after Plato, Google him too. Stretch thine intellectual musculature.


Edit: OT: I'm not dead, yet.

"Can one have a healthy relationship without sex?"

Before my late wife and I were married, she and I had a healthy courtship that did not include sexual intercourse.

Not sure. Everyone is different. I believe talking and other aspects make a healthy relationship. Sex is part of the connection I personally feel with a man. I would think it matters.

In a study of 1,748 women cited in Why Women Have Sex (Times Books), by sex researchers David M. and Cindy M. Meston, 32 percent of women aged 18 to 24 (single and married) reported having little interest in sex. According to Meston, who heads the Sexual Psychophysiology Laboratory at the University of Texas at Austin, that one-third percentage remained relatively constant throughout all age groups, until the fifties and sixties, when it rose to 37 percent.
It's not that these women don't want to want sex. The decline of a once-thriving libido can be devastating: an identity altering loss that results in feelings of inadequacy and frustration not unlike those associated with erectile dysfunction. ''Sex used to be the easy part, a bodily urge like hunger or tiredness. It happened, whether I wanted it to or not," says Gina, 32. "Now, I can't even quite remember how that spark felt.''
It's a matter of habit and taste but also of basic human chemistry. In the heady, initial phase of love, "the brain chemicals are very much like those of women who have obsessive-compulsive disorder,'' Meston says. You want to have sex constantly, and even being away from that person for a brief period can be depressing. But a few months later, each partner reverts back to his or her hormonal baseline. Your baseline drive compels you to want sex every night, while your partner turns out to be a oncea-weeker? It can feel like a hormonal bait and switch.

The best relationship is not having sex.

Sexual urges may possibly be satiated by measures other than sex itself in asexual relationships, but, when it comes to marriage, I guess it would mean no kids.. ohwell

Me and my 3 homeboys have been tight for over 15 years. Apart from hugs, fist bumps and the occasional hug there's no physical contact, let alone sex. We all get along fine smokin

Hmm, there are still other holes to fill.
