Angel Heart Posted December 24, 2012 Posted December 24, 2012 (edited) My partner is Über fantastic in bed; the best I've ever had. Sadly, we don't have much in common besides 'lusting' for one another. I know our partnership is temporary but, for now, it's so amazing and I can't get enough of his attention. Would you stay with someone just b/c the sex was amazing? Edited December 24, 2012 by Angel Heart sp error
CarrieT Posted December 24, 2012 Posted December 24, 2012 I did - but it only lasted about 14 months and after that, it was toxic and vitriolic beyond belief because I was trying to hold on to the potential of a relationship when the sex disappeared. Worst break-up ever....
Author Angel Heart Posted December 24, 2012 Author Posted December 24, 2012 I know in advance we have no potential for a real relationship b/c he is legally separated and I'm, he insisted, am the first partner he's had since his break up. I'm just the good old fashion 'rebound' women. And I don't mind.
sid3 Posted December 24, 2012 Posted December 24, 2012 I would have liked to. But she was an absolute witch.
newmoon Posted December 24, 2012 Posted December 24, 2012 i'm kind of doing that right now. we are very well-matched in bed but seem to have a lot of issues as a couple. i think it's the sexual attraction for one another that binds us and not much else. i find that we need to have sex a lot though, probably more often than a couple who truly likes/loves one another, because it's our primary source of communication. i assume that sex would be secondary to a couple that is truly in love, like icing on an already great cake, but for us it's primary, just icing, no cake
FitChick Posted December 24, 2012 Posted December 24, 2012 You can teach someone to be better in bed but you can't teach them to be a better person. So unless I was planning to spend twelve hours a day having sex, the answer is no. 2

Great sex but we honestly didn't get along. Our best time was near the end when we literally would just see each other for sex and nothing else. I would say that this is a very common scenario.

Many here haven't even had sex and there you have your answer for most of loveshack. The other half of loveshack keeps skipping form person to person so they don't have the kind of attention span to concentrate on the sex they are having. 1
PogoStick Posted December 24, 2012 Posted December 24, 2012 like icing on an already great cake, but for us it's primary, just icing, no cake OMG cream cheese frosting is the best! And like cookies, who really needs to bake them when you can just eat the dough! Ok maybe analogies don't always work but I still love cookie dough. Relationships serve many different purposes. Of course we desire deeper connections but that doesn't mean a sex based relationship has no value. There's still good that can come from basic companionship and practicing to be a better lover. It gives you that much more skill when the right one does come along.
Feelin Frisky Posted December 24, 2012 Posted December 24, 2012 Absolutely. And I regret it terribly. It led to a chain of circumstances in which I completely lost my best self at a time when I needed that most and I'm afraid it cost me happiness with someone else and likely the success I've long wanted. Oh to have stuck to my guns and put that nut out of my life the night I first sensed it was hopeless.
zanesfan Posted December 24, 2012 Posted December 24, 2012 I had a "relationship" like that for 10 months. The sex was beyond amazing but I still felt empty.
sweetkiwi Posted December 24, 2012 Posted December 24, 2012 Never stayed with someone only for the sex. But i have kept having sex with two exs after the breakups. Two gorgeous emotionally closed men who didn't submit to me. This last one doesn't even speak English well. Uggh my vagina is stupid sometimes. 1
Forever Learning Posted December 26, 2012 Posted December 26, 2012 Uggh my vagina is stupid sometimes. Uggh I know what you mean, mine too.
Ninjainpajamas Posted December 26, 2012 Posted December 26, 2012 Those types of relationships are typically self-destructive, you forget the other factors in the relationship and even if you planned on it being temporary or whatever, you usually get sucked in because you think the sex will hold up forever...eventually the relationship will be tested after the fireworks stop. In the end you'll more than likely be at each others throats.
