Not me! Under no circumstances, unless i was on really powerful meds that decreased my libido substatially! :-) I need a fair amount of sex, and/or a good amount of intimacy (best if the two are combined, of course). I can't imagine having a really fufilling relationship w/o sex...Isn't that what friendship is for, anyway?..

I just emerged from a relationship of celibacy and I know from experience that a healthy relationship cannot be sustained without intimacy.

If we haven't had sex for a period of time, things start to go bad for me, I start inventing problems even when there are none. I need the wordless connection and reassurance of sex...

No...I think sex is a very important part of an intimate relationship -- it's the one thing you do with your partner that you don't do with anyone else...Otherwise, isn't it kind of like living with a close friend that you might kiss once in a while?..
..
I'm not saying you need to be having sex every day in all sorts of crayz positions, but if the sex isn't there, I usually find it means that the relationship is ending, or that I'm not feeling connected to the person I'm with...
