Actually biologically, we humans do need sex to maintain a healthy and happy relationship whether you like it or not. Of course the whole idea of 'have sex with me or i'll dump you' is absolutely wrong. Then again they're getting married and don't tell me she's gonna limit the amount of times they have sex each week? Go ask any relationship counselors and they'll tell you that sex does improve relationship between husband and wife. Perhaps your friend and his fiance should go seek help from a counselor to sort their problem.

*To me, sex is important but it shouldn't be the reason why we marry someone. However, saying that sex is a 'bonus' from marriage is wrong IMO. It's a biological need.*

hmmm i'm not gonna go all out and say you're wrong. Perhaps I don't understand what you're trying to say here. However, according to numerous surveys (sorry I can't provide a source but I watched it on discovery several times), wanna know when (in many many cases) does a relationship between husband and wife becomes unstable? Yes you guessed it right, when the woman reaches menopause.(This doesn't mean that the guy is a sex maniac, for some they won't even know that lack of sex is screwing up their marriage) That's why some people say that it's better if the wife is 3-5 years younger. I'm not saying that other relationships won't work. And yes, there are actually couples who don't have sex as often but are still happy. Either way it's not always the guy's fault. As I've said, sex is a biological need. We're still organisms. We still have instincts. But err.. as I said lor.. then again in TS's friend case I'm not sure whether they actually tried to discuss this matter properly and seek help or not.

@spunkberry: I see you actually modified your last post to make it more understandable.
