    question for those in the know...

    is it possible to be in love with someone yet have intimate issues with that person? can those issues be remedied and - if not - can the relationship still flourish?

    When you say "intimate issues" do you mean issues in the bedroom? If so, I'd say "Yes" you can definitely love someone and not be compatible with them sexually. One of my best friends experienced this and despite the differences with his wife, they are still very much in love and happily married 10 years later (though there was counseling early on).

    I don't think it's likely for the long haul. Either one will cheat on the other, or one waste a lot of time being insecure that the other is cheating on the one.

    yes that's what I mean...in part.

    it extends to socially, as well. I'm a sociable, friendly guy by nature. I also do attract women because of my nature. my thing is that every female that I meet doesn't necessarily want me. that's a fact. but she sees it that way. as such, we go out and I am restricted to whom I can talk - or even look - at. funny thing is my woman ends up being cool with them, but I have to be the ******* upfront because of her insecurities. that is so contrary to my personality and I feel bad about it because I am not being true to myself!

    "Being in love' is a common misnomer for a chemical hormone imbalance that causes irrational infatuation and absurd behavior.

    Why should it be surprising that people make stupid decisions in the name of infatuation and end up getting matched up with incompatible personalities? Real love exists outside the boundaries of hormonal attraction, and smart people learn to choose intelligently before allowing hormones to shut down their normal cranial functions.

    This is quite different and, I'm sorry to say, doesn't bode well for the longevity of the relationship. Have you ever done anything to make her question your decision-making when it comes to women? How long have you been together? Sounds to me like she has trust issues that need to be resolved ASAP.

    Realize that ANY successful relationship is going to require some compromise in "being true to yourself" in one way or another. It could be something major, like learning a new way to communicate with your spouse/partner, or it could be something minor, like not drinking out of the milk carton. Fact is, you'll have to be the one who makes the call whether or not the compromise is worth the relationship. I can say, however, that if my wife had told me that I can't talk to women at all, we would not be together today. I can't be with someone who doesn't trust me as much as I trust them.

    You should ring up Doug Christie and ask him how he lives with his nuts in a clamp.

    Sex is very important to me for a happy relationship. but I suppose if I really love a girl enough I may make some sacrifices

    There are options other than adolescent behaviour.


    1. 'Intimate incompatibility' can change. In fact, being in love may be putting incredible pressure on the intimacy for one or both parties.
    2. Unless you're attempting to put a square peg in a round hole, the 'incompatibility' can change.
