I voted that it's in the top 3 only because of the fact that I have a very high sex drive. It's true though that it isn't everything. For me, honesty would definitely be number one with communication coming second. My SO has a very high sex drive too and we match up very well. I imagine at some point our sex drives will slow down but we've been going at it like a couple of rabbits for five years. Sex, I can honestly say, is one of the biggest factors we're together and what has gotten us through some tough times. A similar sense of humor also helps too.
One thing no one has brought up is sex as just a tension reliever, fun. I've had a past relationship where I really didn't care anything much for the man but just enjoyed the sex. There was no real bonding there. With my SO, sometimes we have sex and on occasion, we make love.
