@SammyBerg I think you missed the point ... the question was how to maintain a long relationship. And I described how to.
Are you agreeing with me then?

@KeusFrench you missed his point. No one HAS to be in a long term relationship, and that relationship doesn't have to be mutually sexually exclusive. He's just saying that if it is, if that's what you want, you need to make an effort to take care of each other's needs. You can have emotional loving, caring relationships in which one or more partners engage in sexual fulfillment elsewhere, and that's okay too.

I agree there. It's understandable that he will discuss relationships in the sexual paradigm: he's a sex columnist, sexually active and talking about stuff that was verboten until recently (at least for someone that wanted to maintain employment in a mainstream publication) even in relatively liberal countries. However I can imagine he would be much more emotionally available to his husband than Gingrich or Robertson that advocate divorce for mortal illness.

@Ribavirin9 No high school would invite Dan Savage to come and speak about sexual health and relationship, or what it means to be gay or bullying for that matter and that's really, REALLY sad.

This guy is talking SOME bulls***. (Some!)
Sure, sex is a vital part of a relationship and it DOES keep things going in a way. But should sexuality be the main focus of a relationship? No. If you get to know someone before you have sex with them, (which is common if you get married to that person), then your relationship is based off of each others likes and dislikes. Something called 'personality'. How about just loving your partner? I think emotionally loving someone carries a relationship.

@CatWolfee I've hit some duds for sure. Though now I can spot them much earlier and bail before it gets too bad. .

This guy is talking straight sense, and if anybody disagrees you probably don't realize that your spouse is already cheating on you.
