Must we beat into your pea-brained head that sex alone will not cure all that ails these relationships. I've had plenty of lovers where sex was the entire content of the relationship for long periods of time. Most of the time, it was just fine with me as we bot got what we wanted, pleasurable sex with a willing partner and no strings.
But there were plenty of times that I would have traded all of that for an emotional connection, rather than a sexual one. The sexual one can become shallow and meaningless over time without the EC. I know that you were being flip, but it rather struck me the wrong way. Perhaps becasue I need both and know that most relationships need the EC and the SC plus a plethoria of other traits to truely be a good marriage.
