Sometimes a situation arises when, despite strong feelings, physical intimacy is impossible. Cases are different. It can be abstinence in a couple prior to marriage for ethical or religious reasons. Or it may be an illness of one of the partners, as a result of which the couple has to give up physical intimacy. There are more unique cases when people have certain physical disabilities and are incompatible, but still together. Is there real love in such a relationship and how can you maintain a relationship without sex between a man and a woman?

Step 1
First of all, let's immediately determine that everyone has different needs, both physically and emotionally and materially. One person will be quite satisfied with the absence of sex, in the presence of other material benefits, another, in addition to great sex, needs strong emotional attachment and connection. Each case is different. And only a specialist can tell you how to help in your particular case, having learned all the details. Each person has a certain virtual scale, subconsciously he knows what he needs and to what extent. The need for sex is different for everyone, and in some cases couples can really live harmoniously without it for years or even decades.
Step 2
The very concept of love is also ambiguous and multifaceted. There is no clear definition of what love is. We are all different, we were brought up in different social and cultural conditions and the ideas of what love is for each person are different. For a harmonious relationship, you first need to find a person who has a concept of love that matches yours as much as possible. If material wealth is more important to both partners, then many will say that they have a marriage of convenience, in fact, these people simply cannot fully experience happiness without him and no passion will overcome it. For some, sex is impossible without love, and here no wealth will make you happy. Likewise, couples who are deprived of the opportunity to be together physically must determine for themselves what is more important for them, the main thing is to be honest with themselves and their partner.
Step 3
And most importantly, physical contact, like sex, can be different. There are plenty of opportunities to give your partner physical pleasure, even if you can't have sex. And if partners love and value each other, they will look for ways to overcome all obstacles and find their own unique way.
