The most important part of marriage is love. But again, the deepest expression of that love is sex. Certainly you can hold hands and hug and kiss, but sex is the closest two people can ever get emotionally, mentally, spiritually, and obviously physically. Two people can’t get any closer physically than intercourse.
So to have a happy marriage, the first ingredient is love. And part of that love is like. It is not a cliche to say your spouse should be your best friend. To have a lasting relationship you must have interests in common and you must like the person you are sexually attracted to.
If you love movies and don’t particularly like theater and your spouse hates flicks and adores stage plays, you are going to have compromise a lot. If you love the shore and your beloved likes the desert, you love rock and spouse loves classical, there’s gonna be a life of compromise.
So don’t go to bed with every person of the opposite sex you meet because, sex is very persuasive when it comes to making a commitment. You can believe you are in love, when what it really is is in lust, and after a while you may find out you actually had in nothing common.
When reality sets in, you may find you are almost total opposites, and even though opposites may attract, they sure don’t stay together.
