Is a sexless relationship sustainable?

That depends on the type of people in the relationship and their perception of sex and if they share the same views.

I think it actually depends on he person you are in the relationship with. I was a virgin through most of my last relationship, which lasted two years. My boyfriend had had sex before with other girls, and this was the longest relationship he'd been in without having sex. When we finally did, it was as though there was nothing left to our relationship. The foundation cracked and fell through. It ended four months later through our mutual agreement. It's lead me to feel that if sex is to be had in the relationship, it should happen because youre sure youre in love the person, no matter how long you wait. I did love him, but i wasn't IN love with him at that point in our relationship, and had we had sex sooner I probably wouldn't regret it so much. But, if you are in love with the person and are willing to wait, just know that a relationship can be had without sex. And when you are ready to have sex, make sure the love you have for that person is still as strong as it was when you first met.

I would say no. But i think you could be friends. But a relationship...like marraige...its not good...but you know there are so many people in marraiges with no sex. But that is just a business relationship.
Is it sex..or intimacy? Can have one without the other...

A relationship should be based on friendship, sex is just a bonus!
Sex gets in the way of knowing if someone is really right for you.
Think when you in a new relationship one of the first things that crosses you mind is 'God, I hope they are good in bed?' or 'I really want to have sex with this guy/girl'.
There are few of us who say, I really want to sit on the sofa, have a nice long chat over a coffee and really feel that they love me and care about who I am and what I stand for.
I've been with too many (well a few) guys where it is just about sex...it leads you years down the line when you suddenly wake up one day and think I need a friend to talk to...who can I trust? Should be the guy next to you, not a close friend (be they male or female). But see, sex just makes you end up with the wrong person in the first instance!
In response to your question, a sexless relationship is sustainable if you are with the right peron in the first place. You can be happy without sex!

If we are talking about a normal relationship between a man and a woman who are married, or live in such a manner, Not really, unless of course one was seriously injured and can't partake in the physical part of a relationship like that but they still feel love and devotion to each other. I can't think of staying with a man who wouldn't or didn't care for sex in a relationship. Again, assuming we weren't just friends and nothing more.

Yes, my boyfriend and I have been together two years and we are both virgins and planning on getting married soon! I also have many friends who are in sexless relationships. I also have friends who are in relationships and have sex, and they typically don't last as long..
It will work for sure as long as both have agreed to not have sex.. if one person wants to and the other doesn't.. the pressure to have sex will cause alot of strain on the relationship.. be sure to date someone with the same views as your own. And never be ashamed of them..
