(NSFW) Which is more important to you; romantic love or sex?

Asked by NerdyKeith (5489points) April 19th, 2016

I’d chose love as more important. As a matter of fact, I won’t even have sex until I fall in love.

Each have been important to me at different times and when I’m lucky, there’s no need to separate the two.

Romantic love. I won’t have sex unless I’m in love either! I want that emotional connection.

Depends on my mood.

So the gay guy is saying he waits until he loves.

The straight dude (ME) will stick his dick in anything. But somehow NerdyKeith is the one destroying marriage.

They are both really important. I can’t choose between them.

Great sex comes from romantic love. At least it does for me.

I am in the @janbb camp. Depends on the place and time.

Romantic love has been very important to me. But some times when it has not been present in my life, some needs have been met through relationships with people I can’t say I am in love with.

Being friends first is more important than sex or romance. I’ve been holding my breath for 38 years for a BFF.

Romantic love. Sex is nothing without it.

Both. From the same person though i dont mean cheating.

The two are inextricably connected for me. If I’m in love with a man, I will want to have sex with him. While I can have sex without love, I would prefer for sex to be part of a romantic relationship.

Love seems more important because I’ve had sex with someone that I was mad at before and it was confusing and kinda empty feeling.

Can’t have one without the other. A lame root (lay, sex experience) will not get my romantic love. A great (root, lay, sex experience) who’s an arsehole will not get my romantic love either. But they would certainly see more of me than the lame one would. Lol

Love. Relationships with no love and just sex are…“friends with benefits”. Relationships with love and no sex is “marriage counseling” lol. Love would matter more because if you love someone a lot you will work through it until there is sex. If it’s just sex though, then you can just dump the person and move on to someone who wants both. Love, and also love yourself (loving yourself helps you find someone decent, not loving yourself can lead to you dating people who use/abuse you). Sex can either be fun for a while on it’s own or painful…where-as sex with love is the best thing ever. So love :) It compliments everything in your life if you find it :)

10 years ago I would have said sex. Now I want love, and you can’t beat the sex if there is great love.
