1. Is lust important in a relationship?
2. Can a relationship last without sex?My answer to the above is (1) Yes and (2) No.

my answer is.. yes to both.
lust to me.. is a desire, it's gonna be hard to be in a relationship if you both don't desire each other. may not be physical desire.. can be companionship etc.
if you don't think of each other subconsciously.. do you really love that person? or maybe you're taking that person for granted.

Yes to both questions
i agree with dumbdumb that lust is necessary in a relationship. it keeps both parties interested in the r/s. lust is having intense sexual desire and having sex is putting that intense desire into action.
Having said that, i believe sex is not a key factor in relationships. what's important is the companionship and the intellectual connection with the other party. hence, i think r/s can last without sex.

a good relationship will have elements of lust, depending on the.. level of need of the couple.
but lust do not, cannot, must not define the relationship.
i have a friend who switched like 3 gfs ever since i first knew him. and the relationship always... sorta goes downhill after the sex gets boring.
