How sex is related to our psychological needs and why our emotions determine our sexual behavior and not the other way around. I see it as a need in the same way that social connection or physical contact is a need for some people Not a need in the sense you’ll die without it but a need in the sense of “life would be a bit better if i had it/access to it” Some people really wouldn’t find life truly fulfilling without sex. Hopefully, no one is surprised to hear that you won’t die without sex That said, some people feel as if they’re dying without it
History is full of stories of people who’ve gone to extreme—even violent—lengths in the name of sex In modern relationships, the question of whether sex is a “need” often comes up Sex is a profound desire and an important part of married life, but must always be approached with love, respect, and mutual consent Demanding sex undermines the very intimacy and unity that marriage is meant to foster Focus on the family offers a free counseling consultation to help you find a licensed christian counselor. We like it in pairs, in groups, in the house and in the woods
To be human is to want to do it—to need.
