I've have claimed 1000 things so of course forgot specific one you have in mind. Point is to teach you conservatism.

Your asssertion of romance and sex being linked to provide the best chance for survival, presumably by procreation, is disproved by history. Marriage for love is a recent development, historically speaking, and until it became ass mainstream as it is now, marriage and procreation were not linked to romantic attraction.

So then to you sex love family as practiced today represents a neutral development in human evolution that just occurred by chance??

Are they linked? Are they independent of one another? Most will agree that one can be sexually attracted without being romantically attracted, even if they claim that they need both. It few seem to consider it possible to be romantic attracted without being sexually attracted.

Thoughts?

It's definitely possible. I am gay, but have had a romantic attraction to a woman.

any queer thing is possible. People can be born with any physical, mental, emotional condition, or mutation imaginable thus romance without sex (what most elderly experience anyway) is fairly common. OP was not thought through before posting which explains sudden disappearance of op poster.
