I am sorry, but how can anyone say that two people who are so obviously out of tune sexually should even consider staying together for ONE MORE MINUTE? Do you want his heart broken from her cheating? Or maybe, their home wrecked by divorce and their children shuttled from house to house -- spending Thanksgiving with Dad and his new wife and Christmas with Mom and her latest fanny spanker?
With two people who are so amazingly physically incompatible, you are asking for trouble if you stay together and try to "make it work for love." True love and, perhaps, later, a family -- children -- deserve two people -- parents -- who adore each other emotionally and physically. Who satisfy each other's needs at the most basic level.
Now, do you leave someone if he has been a wonderful lover for 10 years but becomes too ill to swing from the chandeliers? Or get upset if your wife has 2 little ones under the age of 4 and is less keen on the acting out the Kama Sutra lately? No, of course not! Sexual excitement will ebb and flow. But, if you start out with the same attitude and values, your sex life will bring you closer together over time and through the vicissitudes of life.
