Do you think people should wait to find out whether they enjoy sex with the person they wish to marry? I mean what if you got married and then found out it was totally blah?
I think if you have great love and care for the person, and if you align with them in every other way, you won't leave them over just the sex not being great. There's so much more to people than that, and so much more to a relationship and to love.
Couldn't agree more with all of that except the idea that you need to marry them. There are many, many wonderful people in the world, but you can only marry one of them. Of course marriage will be about more than sex but, unless you're intending to be a swinger, they will be the only person with whom you enjoy sex. Think about that a minute. Sex isn't the only or even the best thing in life, but it is a pretty darned good thing at the very least. They say that money and sex are the things married couples fight over the most. If your partner has two left feet in bed, can you be so sure it won't negatively affect the marriage? So why not make sure that person is at least adequate for your needs before you sign that contract? It is more fair to both of you really.

If you both care about each other, you should have open communication about sex, about what feels good, what doesn't, and you can work together at being better for each other.
If you enjoy their conversational style and you enjoy dancing with them, admittedly, the chances are very good you will also hit it off in the bedroom. I also agree that if you are open with each other and both are motivated to make it work, your chances are good. But do watch for certain tell tale signs of trouble ahead. For example, if they never audibly fart in your presence, how certain can you be that they aren't holding back other things as well?
