The truth is, if you have been paying attention in this column help wanted so far, life is messy and love is messy -- and sex is the messiest of all. All you can do is role up your sleeves, endure, cope, explode, break a few commandments, forgive yourself and move on. Having said that, perhaps Mom should explain what the hell all this has help wanted to do with you: Mom believes that sex is part of the help wanted marriage convenant, with marriage defined as two partners who are committed to one another for the long haul, whether a legal contract exists or not. Sex between two partners does more than satisfy an instinctual itch. It is a form of intimacy and unspoken communication that sets the marital relationship above and beyond even the closest of friendships otherwise. Without sex, this unique bond is broken and you may as well be living with that guy you like to meet for coffee but would never have considered marrying because he has hair in his ears.
