1) My prayers to your lady. And sex is only as important as you make it that doesn't make a relationship unless you center around it. The main thing is how are you 2 dealing w/your situation if you love her which it shows; then continue to be there you are one of few good men left. keep talking and pray you guys will be okay. if she's on meds the only thing she can do is wait until she comes off and her weight may go back to normal just help her to stay as stress free as possible

I believe the importance of sex rest upon the individual couple. For some sex is very important for many reasons. Yet for others like yourself, a relationship can survive without sex. The relationship is the most important part, sex is just a bonus feature.
As to the weight question, eat balanced food, everything in moderation, drinking water also helps and staying active, try walking for 20 mins a day I'm sure she will see an improvement GOOD LUCK !

Sex in a relationship is only a form of expression. We have emotional needs, physical needs, spritual needs and mental needs. If both of you don't have much of a physical need(which would be most likely in the form of sex) then it won't matter much in your relationship. Yet all the rest of it matters...feeling loved, sexy, wanted ect. Sex is different for everyone, but in general so is everyone's needs. A relationship based on love is going to last without sex. Think about the elderly who can't so much sexually? How does their relationship survive? It deals with all the other needs that they have. As for the weight I can't tell you since there are different reasons a woman's weight goes up and down. Eat healthy, exercise and make sure its not her medication. I hope this helps

Unless the cyst is the size of a bowling ball it shouldn't effect sexual relations. I have ovarian cysts more often than not and while they can cause pain they do not effect my ability to have sex with my husband.
As for ED , I wish you luck. Sex is important to a relationship otherwise you might as well just be buddies.
Sex does not have to mean intercourse. Sex can cause major problems if one wants it and the other doesn't.
If both are okay with the status quo of the relationship re: sex then it isn't a problem and isn't a concern.

People always getting it twisted. SEX IS JUST A BENEFIT FROM LOVE!! But if she is have medical problem she needs to get those cyst removed they may be cancerous (hope not) but if they are remove they may be causing her weight gain as far as the stomach is concern. But my opinion is that if you love her sex is not as important as people make it out to be. Now, don't get me wrong I love to get my freak on with my baby. But if something was to happen where he can no longer perform. I will stay true to him and him only. Because before I made-love with him physically he made love to my mind and that kind of love last. you feel me. COMMUNICATE WITH HER. Let her know how you feel. Good relationships are hard really hard to find.

A relationship can exist without sex- it's called a friendship. I became friends with several ex's once they were ex's.
It does sound like, though, you're working on things that you can't do anything else about. Sure- build on the friendship, if nothing else. We all need someone to be there for us at times, and right now that's the best you can do. As long as you are fully communicating about it, it should be ok.

I personally think that sex is gift of God to married couple.
I think that if you have a good relationship, sex comes naturally. It is not going to be a big deal if you have to withdraw from it for medical reasons. There are medications for ed. And you can also have some sex toys, if you both feel comfortable with it.Over weight can cause problems with selfesteem, and that is also one reason why one does not want to perform sex or one is not able to.
Communicate with your partner, that is very important.Sexuality is variable with different people, people have different needs. But since you are not married, I would ask you to withold from sex if possible. That is what God would want you to do.

Sex in a relationship is really not half as important as we make it out to be. A great relationship is built on friendship. That's what matters. Having someone to come home to tell about your day and to hold you at night and to tell you I love you. Sex should be there at least a little though.

If you don't have sex right now and it's been working out ok, why are you asking us if it's necessary to have sex? It's obviously not a must... it's very possible to love someone without banging them... for some people. Other people just think more with their bodies than their minds... so it's different.

Sex is what 2 ppl do in LOVE to express that love to each other and besides the fact it releases some major stress and feels hella good! but i don't believe sex is the most important thing in a relationship its TRUST so you can open up to each other and trust your partner whole heartly so you can have wild mad love!
