No, it is not necessary. You can love someone without having sex. Love is an emotion while sex is a physical activity. Sure, love is better with sex and sex is better with love but they each can exist independent. Anyone who forces you to associate one with the other is using you. Lets face it how could love exist for people with disabilities, people who are apart, and people who are old if it was dependent upon sex.

Necessary, or not necessary? That's a strange way to put it, because if it's actually love, neither partner feels obligated in any way shape or form to have sex with the other. It's just something that would happen naturally.
If someone tries to make you feel obligated to have sex with them, regardless of whether or not your in a relationship where the both of you say "I love you" all the time, then you should probably leave them, because they neither love nor respect you.
I don't really think I have to say this, though, because I know you can tell the difference between obligation and willing participation...so maybe you didn't ask this question just to hear opinions on the necessity of sex in a relationship. If I'm interpreting the force correctly, you're just looking for that little push you need to go through with it with someone you know you don't actually love, so I'll give it to you.
Trust me, it's not wrong to have casual sex in a relationship, regardless of whether or not if it's for love. You have these desires for a reason, so don't fight them next time if you like the guy.

Nothing in this life is necessary. I dont think sex is necessary but i think ;'Making Love' is important for a relationship to survive. Purly because making love can sometimes be the only way a person can express his/hers self. More often than not people feel unloved or unwanted if 'making love' isnt in the making - if you know what i mean.

I think love is necessary for sex (and I know people will disagree) but to me being in love is the main reason for having sex - it is an expression of love. Having sex is the most intimate 2 people can be. I think you can be in love and not have sex, but like I said, sex is a form of intimacy, and that is a big part of a relationship, although I'm sure there are couples that don't need to have sex to be intimate.

Well in a relationship then yes I think its important.... if its not necessary, then i think both of you have to agree that its not, and that hardly ever happens.
Personally I couldn't contemplate being in a relationship without it, I like the closeness and the physical contact of it and the privacy of cherishing the moment.

I agree with everything written. There is a pattern though whereby some men will think sex is vital and some women not at all.
It's not just that sex is the most intimate act you can share with someone, it's also that people feel more loved by having sex frequently.

we want it too but not the way they do so the relation would be on rock and really mind screwing after sumtimes

they say that men need to have sex before they can love a woman, whereas women need to feel loved before will have sex...
how much of that is true i dont know!
i dont know if it is necessary but its not the most important thing...
you can be in love with someone without having sex, my grandparents are in love and pretty sure they dont have it anymore!!

I think it is a gender specific thing; Women are capable of experiencing a much greater variety of love, towards family and offspring, women appreciate positive character attributes more than men and are capable of loving in a non-sexual context.
It is harder for men to love without sex but it does happen, a man is capable of loving his friends family and children in a way that is void of sexuality. But in the context of a relationship can a man love without sex? if he is a very young man then yes, for more experienced men it's much less likely. We need it!
