Is Physical Attraction That Important In A Relationship? by Dammy117(m): 5:10pm On Jan 28, 2022
I'm about to break up my 3 months old relationship

I'm in my mid 20s while my girlfriend is two years older than I am but that's not the problem, we've known each other for years before we started dating 3 months ago .she already wants us to get serious and wants to visit my sister soon. I know she's a wife material but the issue I'm not so attracted to her, she's ok, not ugly but when I look at her I don't get that sexual kind of attraction towards her unlike other girls. I like her but I don't love her.

I've been with her because she's got a good character and not the slay queen kind of girl. Now that I'm about to break up with her I feel I'm about to lose a great girl, at the same time, something tells me if I keep dating her, I could cheat on her in d nearest future(although I'm not the cheating type)

Which brings me to the question, how important is physical attraction.. would appreciate some advice on what to do

@ op i will advice you to continue dating her, hence you're not really for marriage, Lee her and don't break her heart

Very important, why do you think people don't get attracted to mentally unstable individuals roaming the streets?

stop wasting her time and yours.... if you dont feel attracted to her now, and aint into her now, you certainly wont be in the future. YES it is important to be attracted to her physically, because if you aint, you will continuously be attracted to others out there and eventually do the unthinkable someday. at the begining of the r/ship, physical attraction is what will get you to love this woman unconditionally, to therefore stay with her in 10/20yrs time when her looks fades away.

you guys are on 2 different life path entirely...

YEE, because she is from the ancient history... and in this Aquarius age Men love any girl that have the spec which are breast and butt + can give out the bitchy vibes.

Pls lose her, she don't deserve someone who is not appreciating

Typing.. wink
It is very important..
Because a relationship cannot survive without physical attraction...
To be sincere when you are not attracted you don't feel affectionate towards the person..

If you want a relationship to really work then you have to be physically attracted to her..

I would advise you not to get married to her cos that marriage is likely not to work 100 percent..go for someone on the same length as you..

I don't think it's something you can force..you can't just force yourself I understand..
Getting married is just gonna be uncomfortable and inconvenient cos you ain't giving out the same energy she is...

Do not breakup with her rather keep her one side, talk to her always, don't let feel rejected or think you don't care any more about. If you dump her you may regret it in future

@OP Don't waste her time biko.. if you don't find her attractive, then you're only dating her out of pity.

It's harder to forgive someone you're not attracted to, and it's even harder to even love them, at least for most people. If a woman you're attracted to offend you, forgiveness becomes automatic when you imagine how you'll handle that body, as she walk in front of you. grin

This is where being honest with your dealings comes into play. You would not be in this issue if you didn't enter it in the first place. You know you didn't find her attractive, but because you want to nack, you played along and now, you want to ball out. Three months is not much, so tell her you're cutting of.

Don't text, ignore, or ghost her. But meet her face to face that you're not doing again. Be a man and face it squarely. She may cry her lungs out, but posterity will reward such actions, she will respect you, and that's how you make peace with yourself. Its hard perhaps, but the darker the pot, the whiter the agidi. I come in peace.

I just know that don't marry someone you're not physically attracted to unless you are confident you have a great deal of contentment spirit and self-control

Your comment or I would rather say reply sounds like the book of Ecclessiastes, very contradictory.
Still trying to figure out your stand.

Holly Gram cool real matters. WTF MAN

Op let me tell you what I think.
To find a woman that loves you and can go to any length for you, is a rare gift, she can go to any length not expecting anything in return even in your darkest moments, her greatest joy is to see you succeed and be happy, is a rare gift, she is not ugly according to you, if she loves you like I explained above, I feel you should give yourself more time, love grows, as you grow older you will realize that what you need In a woman is more than physical attraction, it's sickening to be a very very attractive woman that even male and female feels she is attractive but inside you, you are burning, that's when you will lose your attractions to her.
In a nutshell, get your priorities right, if you want to flirt around, leave d babe and chill because then you will really need attractive women but if you want something serious, I will also advise you give yourself more time.
