No, it's a matter of you not being able to get her off, or vice versa. If
she doesn't like it with you, she'll like it with someone else.

The basis of a Christian relationship is love. How is love expressed?
Through sex. If you can't happily express your love, you won't express it
at all. If you're not expressing it at all, it's seen as a symptom of the
love not being there. If it's taken as a symptom of no love, then that
begins the whole no more marriage thing. Get it?
