Can a Bad Sex Life Effect The Love You Have For Each Other?
He loved me and he took the breakup badly too. We cared about each other and we loved each other and we even talked about marriage. But, the end was so dead and almost flat, despite working hard to save it.
I was in a long term relationship and we were having trouble communicating sexual. We also lived long distance and our sex life was almost nonexistent.
The end of our relationship felt so flat and so loveless. But, I loved him and he was my everything. The breakup was heartbreaking. I often wonder if our nonexistent sex life was one of the reasons are walking relationship felt like it was missing something.
We didn’t have that spark or that playfulness. Could it have been caused by not having a good sex life?

I’m sure it had something to do with the sexual issues. Without the closeness that sexual intimacy has, some couples don’t feel as close and there is something missing. Like a piece of the puzzle is missing.
Yes, bad sex can ruin a relationship.
Star probably is 17.
not if you love eachother.
yeah , i would think sex is a very important part of a relationship otherwise your going to find it somewhere else !!
I think sex is a big thing to having an amazing relationship. Although sex isn’t everything ..
well i think you answered your own question
keep tell him that
it could of effected it alot and then the distance between you too also.
i definitely believe a good sex life is vital to a good relationship…that level of intimacy and closeness can’t be reached any other way and it’s important to have that with the person you are with if you want the relationship to last…
A good sex life is very important to a good relationship. If you didn’t have the spark perhaps you were more good friends than lovers. Can you continue just the friendship?
Depends on how much you love them. My wife is probably the worst piece of tail I’ve ever had, but love her. I do miss the hot sex I used to get from my other girlfriends, but it’s a small sacrifice for a woman who is otherwise perfect. I still get a nut every time. That’s good enough for me.
If sex is important to you, then yes.
A bad sex life can effect a relationship if you let it. But you know it sounds like you two were just not meant to be. Stay friends, it sounds like you care too much about each other than to not be in each other’s life.
Definitely. Most marriages end because the sex sucks or is non-existant.
sex is a part of relationships just like communication, its just another form. if the sex isn’t well, i know many people wouldn’t be able to work it out, including me, i actually broke it off a few times because the guy didn’t know what he was doing.
as far as long distance, that’s another subject. that doesn’t bother me because i know its worth it (that’s if we had it before). being a military spouse you have to be able to go without sex for years.
If your honest with yourself this relationship was doomed really from the start !! It was,nt love or that spark when you got together wood have bin there ? Its best you both move on !!
wow I’m in the same boat… only we haven’t broken up yet and it isn’t a long distance relationship.
To answer your question… it’s hard to say if not having a good sex life was the one reason for things ending. But I can honestly say that lack of sex does make things weird on his end. It sort of dulls men out. You’ll find that women tend to make love to partners even if they aren’t into it just to keep them happy. And it does tend to work. I have always believed in a rule… "Men play at love to get sex and women play at sex to get love." If he’s not getting any, he probably didn’t want to play the love part so much in the relationship (even if he did love you.) And vice versa: if you weren’t feeling romance from his end of things, why would you want to sleep with him? So is it good to follow this rule? Probably not always, and definitely not forever. It’s a vicious cycle unfortunately and I’m beginning to wonder if it just takes time to play things out.
Anyway, not having that spark or playfulness does die out with time. You should ask yourself if you ever had that spark or playfulness. If you did, there is a possibility it could come back. If not, then you should consider the fact that there probably is someone out there who would make you feel this way… absolutely amazing and worth your time.
A woman can tolerated bad sex and still stay with the one she luvs. When a man is getting no sex or not enough he will end a marriage…I’m in the beginning stages of a divorce and feel that played a big role in him leaving. We just had a baby and he still left.
Yes it can. Everyone has needs and if those needs go unfulfilled then either there is built up frustration or the eyes begins to wonder and the body soon follows. And great sex life can make a relationship last through the tough times. Personally I could never do the long distance relationship if it was just a boyfriend. The one time I did, it became too much. But I could for my hubby because I knew the sex was great and was worth waiting until his deployment was over.
A woman’s desire to have sex with you gives you the feeling of being wanted. When she refuses to sleep with you, there’s a message that you’re not wanted. Having such issue makes a man, who is loyal to her wife, to decide to leave this marriage in a sad way.
