Quote: There are some of us who enjoy the spiritual and intimate aspects of sex; to minimalize it into biology is quite the offense on the nature of humans.
Grow some balls dude. Ask any man what they want out of a relationship and they will tell you great sex. Of the 90% of the women who don't understand this, 90% will get divorced.
Although I may agree there is more to life in chosing a life partner than just sex, let's not minimize the fact that sex is a PRIME motivator. Rationalize it any way you want.
I agree. After all what cause married people to wander most of the time - lack of sex in the marriage!
No! If this were the case, then I should have been the one to have an affair. My wife knew that I wanted it about 3-4x/day and even at 40 can still deliver on that
People can have emotional affairs that lead to physical affairs.
Husbands suffer through wives that are nagging and critical. Wives suffer through husbands that are controlling and emotionally distant.
People see to have all sorts of emotional needs met by their spouses or others. One of those needs is sex, but there are a whole host of needs people have and sometimes, someone has a need for conversation and getting that need met leads to "feelings of love" that lead to sex.
To many people, love is a feeling. To me and I believe the Bible teaches this by example as well, that love is a verb, it's an action. It's how you treat someone, not that warm fuzzy feeling you get.
As long as people decide they are going to follow their feelings over using logic, there are going to be affairs, both physical and emotional.
