The thread "Did it change you?" got me to thinking about not just did it change me but what has made this lifestyle work for us. I think that in order to really enjoy this lifestyle as a couple there has to be a stronger "rock" on which that relationship is built on. If a relationship is built on sex only then this lifestyle will mess them up. If the relationship has a strong loving bond then it can flourish. My wife and I have a good solid relationship. Our marriage was not and is still not based on sex. Sex is the topping on the cake so to speak. Our relationship started out as friends and evolved into best friends then marriage. We are still best friends today. I think if we didn't have this friendship our marriage might not have survived a lot of things we have been through in the last few years. (note, I am married to a trans-female.)
What do you all think? Is your relationship built on friendship and love or is it something else? Have you been satisfied with your relationship and where it is or do you want something more?
