Could you be in a relationship that DIDN"T allow physical intimacy of any kind?

I'm watching a "True Life" episode, and there's a couple on here that is getting married. The thing is, they've never so much as kissed each other. They can't have sex, kiss, or even lay on the couch together. Waiting for sex is one thing, but I don't think I'd be alright with only holding hands the whole time we were engaged (or before). Granted they are a straight couple and I am a lesbian, things might be different??? What do you guys think?
 
It is possible. However, not having sexual intimacy before something as serious as marriage could have complex detrimental effects on the relationship. No matter what gender the person you are with is, sex is a HUGE part of any relationship. Now, as I said it is possible. But, a major and important part of discovering your partner (and yourself) is having a physical relationship. This is not to say that sex is the most important component in a relationship. But, many will agree that it at least comes in 2nd.
 
some people really are okay without sex, and I for one am one of them. of course I am much older now, and I don't see all hoopla about it anymore. But when I was younger, before heart attacks and diabetes, it was quite wonderful and I loved my man enough to show him physically. Now? leave me alone okay, but I still love him.
 
I think everyone's different and it's fine that they decided to do that. I'd NEVER do that, but if that's what they believe in it's okay.
