    You can have intimacy and passion without sex. Pretty sure the vast majority of infidelity is dead bedroom/lack of sex, because, you know… thats the point of being unfaithful… To get sex with someone else cause you dont get any in your relationship…

    This study is shit, intimacy and passion cannot be measured, while sex can, they only had to ask one question about sex frequency in the couple…

      “Intimacy” is used as a euphemism for sex, bruh.

      Passion and intimacy were not associated with infidelity. This suggests that the quality and frequency of sex or emotional closeness alone do not necessarily deter infidelity.

        It’s not. The article says they surveyed intimacy with the question "How close are you to your partner?”

        I’m sure the actual study says more. Usually the questions about sex are directly about sex, unless the surveyor is very uptight.
