I agree. You'd be hardpressed to find anyone who can say they've been married 30 years and were 'swinging' the whole time. At some point, emotional intimacy can cross over to sexual intimacy; as much as we proclaim sex to be just 'fun', it's much more than that when you're deeply in love and committed. I've also found that, when an unusual but successful relationship is working, those that see it want to emulate it, not realizing what work goes on behind what others see and possibly not ever knowing the troubles within it. Then when something does go wrong(as it did with one well-respected couple), we 'think' we could do better and be successful at it.
