The Importance of Relational Connections OUTSIDE of the Bedroom

When the topic of sexuality comes up in conversation forums, many people regularly opine the importance of sexual chemistry within an intimate relationship, especially between two people who hold their sexuality with a high degree of importance or necessity in their lives. What seems unfortunate to me is that I often get the feeling that many of these people don't understand the importance of connecting with their partners OUTSIDE the barriers of their sexuality.

Have you ever asked yourself if your relationship could or would survive if for whatever reason you could no longer have penetrative sex with your partner again? It's been my experience that many people, especially younger people, are very quick to say something to the effect of "I'll just deal with it when it happens, why worry about it now when I don't even know for sure that anything will happen to me that will inhibit my ability to have sex?"

These kinds of life changing experiences can happen at any time throughout our lives. Granted, I don't think we should live in fear of these things, but I think we should respect the possibilities accordingly. But what I'm addressing here isn't something that's unsubstantial in our lives by any means. I'm talking about the lasting success of our intimate relationships with people we love and love us back and if these relationships aren't well grounded and solidified in other areas outside of the bedroom, these relationships could very well meet their untimely demise if something were to happen that disrupted their sexual chemistry.

Since I personally know exactly how it feels to have the sexual chemistry destroyed in a relationship, I've prepared a true to live example using my own experience to demonstrate a very unexpected live changing experience.
