1. Passion, Passion, Passion

The best relationship you can have is with someone who’s your best friend and your lover. If you’re in a relationship that’s become sex-less, you might as well be dating just a friend. Yes, it’s that simple. Relationships need passion. They need excitement and sexiness. Having sex with your partner keeps the passion alive. It makes the relationship desirable, stimulating, and fun.

Sex is something simple you can do to make yourself (and your partner!) very happy. It promotes intimacy, reassurance, and shows you both that you’re wanted and needed.

It’s a way of assuring your significant other that the love is still there and everything is okay, regardless of how stressful life becomes.

4. Sleep Tight

Sex helps you sleep better. It’s not just the fabulous romp session that makes you sleep like a baby. After sex, a chemical called oxytocin is released, which helps you sleep soundly.

6. Keeps Your Partner Happy

When men are stressed, sex makes them feel better. It makes them feel wanted and needed. Plain and simple, having sex makes a man feel good about himself. If you’re in a sex-less relationship, your partner isn’t 100% satisfied. It’s a no-brainer that if he isn’t happy with your sex life, he’s going to start looking for sex from someone else.

Sex is the glue that’s needed in a relationship. It re-connects you and puts you in tune with your partner. Sex keeps your relationship alive. Don't you agree?

    I would just like to see an opinion based upon the other side of the spectrum. Reasons why sex isn't the most important thing in a healthy relationship. Sex is important I believe to increase relationships on a deeper level but aren't other things needed as well? You really have to Trust someone to love you for you and reveal your body. You have to respect the other persons needs and acknowledge them as well. And you have to be responsible, listen to eachother and care for one another

    This article implies that sex is something fun that spice up a relationship and if you are in a sexless relationship, you might as well just date a friend. It's not a necessity.

    "It’s a no-brainer that if he isn’t happy with your sex life, he’s going to start looking for sex from someone else." Gosh, where's the trust? If that's what you think about relationships, maybe you shouldn't be in one. A man should want you for more than sex. If that's the deciding factor if your relationship, then good luck..

    Sex is the "glue" that's needed in a relationship? What a terrible relationship it must be if that is what is required to keep it together.
