Physical Relationships

[Craig]

Well I've been with my current girlfriend for over 7 months and no physical part to the relationship. This might be due to it being long distance but tbh I'm not that bothered and haven't felt the need to go 'physical' with anyone else either because it doesn't appeal to me without meaning to the relationship. Yeah I do intend on getting physical in the future with my partner but if you think about it the longer you wait the more you look forward to it? Otherwise you can spoil the physical part of the relationship by having it too soon. Plus if you wait longer you get more of a 'tingle' when you are going to do it because you've been waiting so long for it. Well I haven't had much physical action in life, just a few former relationships with girls that as you can see didn't last. I prefer to less-physical side to the relationship, apart from hugging,kissing and holding hands. I'd rather sit and talk with a girl and have fun than constantly be thinking about and wanting sex with her as it would just spoil and ruin it. Sounds to me like you might be obsessive with physical side, either that or I'm just different to most guys.

okay well, physical relationships.. are what makes it a girl and boyfriend relationship the sexual atraction.

so its okay. but when it goes down the road that you are huffy because "you aint getting any" its wrong.. you need to like the person before the phsyical stuff

thats a good relationship.

I can sympathise with that -_-' Edit: The subheading under your name is well good haha.

I read through the "successful marriage" counselling book that my mum got before getting married last summer, and part of it does mention the physical side, saying (and I quote ^_^):

"Sex is not just the icing on the cake, it's a vital ingredient"

Check that, what a fantastic analogy.

I wouldn't say sex is a vital ingredient. Sure it's great but it isn't the most important part of a relationship. Being together, loving eachother is the main thing of it.

I think it meant vital in the way that long-term relationships don't work well without it in modern relationships.

I've been with my girl for 4 weeks exactly to the date. Since May 15th, and it was only last week we started doing 'stuff'. By stuff I will explain it how you most probably know it. 'Snogging (or for some of you, getting or or tonguing)', 'feeling the areas' etc.. It hasn't ruined my relationship whatsoever and still, ever moment I spend with her I feel as if we're in heaven.

It only shows you love her. Just don't go to far and check with her that everything you do to her or with her is comfortable with her.

Works with me.

If its you thats making the first move towards the physical side of a relationship, make sure tis not really early on and you know her well. You dont want her feeling as though she is being used.

But if its a mutual decision then its fine
