Yea its very true, cos wen real love is involve it comes from the heart, so ur feelings and emotion won't let u have sex nt even think of it. Am in such a relationship

the only problem I have wif ur write up is wen u said ur feeling and emotions won't let u have sex not even tink of it! I bent to disagree wif u big time!
Honestly I will appreciate if u use the word I was “determined” not to have sex wif her until marriage, not ur feelings and emotions cos love is not feelings or emotions cos dey can decieve u a lot okay!!!!!

It is not possible @ all rather the love u have 4 her might supersede the sex urge and u just need to control not to allow the urge overcome u that is all but when u say u don't feel like having sex or doing ds silly things with her it is a lie.

I would approach my answer from the converse angle. It is possible to hate someone and still desire to sleep with the person but it is not common. It is also possible to hate someone and detest sleeping with the person. This is most common.

I adopt this explanation because the human psyche is wired to comprehend hate more than love. Most people can express hate better than love. It is a phenomena that really baffles me.

but is very rear to get in dis century
dis ur comments is so annoyin cos u just painted a picture dat made it seem guys r d one dat need sex only! Wen infact a lady av bn beggin to come (6hours journey oh) n do d do wit me for almost 6months now n av bn sayin NO! To me these two words dnt hav any correlation wat so eva cos: u can hav sex wit someone u dnt love, u can hav sex wit someone u love, u can withold sex frm someone u love, u can withold sex frm someone u dnt love. So these words hav absolutely notin to do wit each other! LOVE is LOVE! SEX is SEX!

first of all u are a confused person. if it is not AGAPE LOVE, den sex will be involved. now let me answer ur question. do u know dat some guys love deir girlfriends and spend on dem and d girl will say no sex till marriage. d guy humbles himself and says ok.,no problem but meanwhile d same girl is busy bleeping a guy dat does not even take care about her. most girls are very comfortable with dis situation playing smart. who be mumu.? u see y guys may not wait till marriage but rather spend and expect reward in kind. heheheheeeed

babe please stop getting uneccesarily defensive and robotic in your response, unless you are an object with no blood flowing through her veins then we can believe you.

It is one thing to say you are able to control the urge and wait for whatever time you have agreed but to claim that you have no sexual feelings or desire towards the one that you love underlies a big problem that would later rear its ugly head when the time finally reaches for it. No man will not cheat on a woman that finds sex an ordeal or is not sexually attracted to him, so no dey for robot woman here for us. There is a kind of openness that sex brings to a relationship that even love can not attain, it takes it to a whole new level of knowing each other and revealing compatibility with each other.

and what is the main reason old and married people cheat on their spouses is?
The mistake any young person will do is to marry somebody whose sex drive is not known.

Sensual feelings can not be separated from a relationship. You become physically attracted to the person you love...girlfrd,fiance(e) or wife. What remains is for the two parties to decide not to have sex. But not having the desire to have sex is a BIG LIE!!!!!

Loving someone and having sexual urge are two different things and are not related in any way.

Please if you do not feel sexual attraction and passion with the one you love, run away from the relationship as fast as your leg can carry you. Na Agape love you get for the person be that!

jearile:

Having read through some comments I found out there's a misconstrued on the topic.
In as much as I presumably get the notion you are trying to send across, I think the word "desire" was kind of inappropriate in this context. I would have preferred you used the word "urge" in place of "desire." I won't want to dip into its meaning to save us time.
Now, it's a natural phenomenon to have urge for intimacy with your complementary sex let alone with somebody you feel something 'special' for. Celibacy, whether ordained or imposed didn't stop the hormones in your body from functioning and for goodness' sake it is not a sin - so all the holier than thou sycophant with their "phariseeism" mentality can now drop all the pretence.
Refusing to dishonour your temple is a journey that begins from your mind and your ability to put it under control through the help of God irrespective of your feelings is what true love preaches. Instead of satisfying your immediate gratification, you choose to knock it off.
So in nutshell, having sexual urge is only natural - you can't stop, you can't kill it but you can suppress it until it's the right time to express it.
u ar quite onpoint! Itz NORMAL nd EXPECTED to av a sexual urge towards ur gf/bf/fiance/fiancee xcept u r impotent. Bt it nw dpend on d priorities uv set. E.g. My fiance nd I promised no sex til mariage, yet, d day she visitd my family nd slept overnite wt me, d urge was so intense for both of us. We just knew ds isnt wat we planned. We stopped! Nd evryone slept to continue wateva in drimland. So, d urge is scriptural nd biological, bt puttin it under control is a CHOICE

This is my take on this topic.
when a guy or girl have a crush on someone, u r said to be sexually attracted to that person. It applies to Love too. Now you can have sexual urge for your partner but your ability to deem it "not necessary for the moment" is Love.
I love my girl and I usually have sexual urge towards her but the ability to control myself at that moment and also respect her opinions on that matter is the Peak of it all. So if u really love someone u r expected to have urges cos ur emotions are involved.

I thought I understood the question, but going by some answers here i can feel confusion seeping through undecided



Is the OP asking if it's possible to love someone, yet feel nothing for them sexually ie. No chemistry?

OR

Is it possible to love someone, have good chemistry with them ie. crazy sexual desire, but still choose not to sleep with them?

I thought the former was the question, but most answers I see here are relating to the latter

Anyway, I'd say Yes on both count.
