This of course wastes your time and the other person's. Loss of interest in sex can be like a canary in a coal mine for a relationship. Take it seriously. Talk about it, and see if there is a fix. If the cause isn't temporary or readily fixable, it can be the first sign that you are not really meant for each other.

BRUCE Y. LEE

"Why Women Are Losing Interest In Sex After A Year", Forbes, September 16, 2017


One thing I've learned in all these years is not to make love when you really don't feel it; there's probably nothing worse you can do to yourself than that.

The imagination of a eunuch dwells more and longer upon the material of love than that of man or woman ... supplying, so far as he can, by speculation, the place of pleasures he can no longer enjoy.

There is a no man's land between sex and love, and it alters in the night. We go to sleep convinced we are in one state, we awaken in the other, and murderous emotions patrol the ever-changing border.

Yet this desire will never find full satisfaction outside the God-designed safeguards of entering into the commitment and covenant of marriage and approaching sex as the route to oneness, rather than orgasm. When we remove those safeguards, having sex is like taking the hard drive out of a computer, laying it on a table, and expecting the hard drive to accomplish the role it was created for. By itself, it won'd do you any good.

TIM ALAN GARDNER

The Naked Soul


"Sex" is as important as eating or drinking and we ought to allow the one appetite to be satisfied with as little restraint or false modesty as the other.

The necessity of perpetuating the species, forms the combining principle between males and females; a principle independent of choice or design, and alike incident to animals and to plants, which are all naturally impelled to propagate their respective kinds.

It's been a long day. I need one of those hugs that turns into sex.

ANONYMOUS


Nothing was happening in my marriage. I nicknamed our water bed Lake Placid.

PHYLLIS DILLER

attributed, The Mammoth Book of Comic Quotes


We have already to some extent separated the biological function of sex from its communication, sensual and recreational purposes. You can certainly have sex without having babies, and you can even have babies without having sex. In virtual reality we will have even more freedom to experiment.

For married men, I think after a while they realize the morning's your best shot. You have a higher percentage in the morning. Well, there's a couple reasons. One--she can't say she's tired really. You know, but seriously. She's had eight hours sleep.... And also, in her mind, she's thinking I'm gonna shower anyway. But the best thing you have going for you is she can't really see you yet. She could squint you into Bruno Mars if she had to.

RAY ROMANO

Life can be swamped by sex very easily if sex is not normally satisfied.

Sex is natural, sex is good
Not everybody does it, but everybody should
Sex is natural, sex is fun
Sex is best when it's one on one

GEORGE MICHAEL

"I Want Your Sex"


Sex ... or lack thereof ... is at the center of everyone's identity, and once you've cracked someone's desires, you understand them in full.
