My experience echoes Sam's.  My partner and I have been together for five
years, and we are the best of friends.  Sex is no longer quite as central
to the relationship as it once was.  I don't think this differs at all
from what happens in a heterosexual relationship over time.

On the other hand, I don't know what to say about a relationship set up at
the outset as a sexless "friendship marriage."  Good luck to those who
choose it, but it sounds like a rather severe separation of sex vs. love.
