The Importance Of PHYSICAL ATTRACTION In A Relationship

[BGIRL]

I think that’s why women look for men who love them, because when someone really is in love with you, the respect etc remains

[lifeseries]

In early stage, the physical attraction matters more. Over time, you hope the attraction changes into more deeper and inner work.

[c.c]

Physical attraction is important to some degree, but for me it doesn't determine respect or admiration. If guy is handsome but has no substance, it's just an empty shell.

[rosezful]

I can find someone very attractive and yet it’s not the attractiveness that attracts me long term. Something about the way they make me feel is what changes everything.

[TheJTBOUNDS]

True. However, the same is most true when there is NO spiritual, mental / intellectual attraction as well. Both are equally important.

[onlydotter]

Listen up men. Why y’all think you’re exempt from maintaining physical attractiveness

[malissa]

"The quality of the relationship suffers when there is no attraction." Sounds harsh but it's true. For years I dated men on the "he's not cute but..." premise which I realized many years later was settling. You have to be evenly yoked from the beginning. Your mindset should be "he approached me because he is physically attracted to me but am I physically attracted to him?" Otherwise you are settling for someone simply because he finds you attractive which is a waste of time because just like Stephan said everything will dwindle and eventually fizzle out. You're not being shallow simply selective.

It’s like buying someone a birthday cake with no icing on it. It’s like buying clothes for comfort with no style…why can’t you have both, ppl make it seem like it’s wrong to find a person that most are looking to spend the rest of their life with attractive. It isn’t everything but it’s important.

I figured something out and you clarified it, my intuition came back just before and during this reading. Its kind of spinning me out how clear and different my intuition is all of a sudden

But attraction can be gained if you start an emotional relationship with someone 1st.

Facts! But i believe thats more so with the man having that attraction in the woman more than vice versa. Because the majority of our overall attraction in the opposite sex is physical. With women, physical is not as big or prevalent. There's other things that makes them attracted to us. It is what it is

[sweetsarah]

This is why I walk around looking as terrible as possible all the time. Then, if they manage to fall for me like that, I know I got a real one! And of course they get a nice surprise when I finally dress up 😅😂😂😂

[Touchedmymouthministriesint]

Good Lord! Is that how shallow humans are? Everything hinges on the physical?Then no wonder Society and relationships gone to the dogs!

We need to be higher minded, for it is the mind that affects the physical, "As people think, so they are".

1 Samuel 16:7
But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.

II Cor 10:7
Do ye look on things after the outward appearance?...

Romans 8:6
For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

Let there be life in relationships and life, generally, with our minds on a higher focus.

Did you know that it is the state of mind that affects physical upkeep? When there is no respect, admiration, affection from a partner, it starts to show on the other's physical appearance - people inclined to comfort food; Love and respect yourself and people period!

[dee_tracy]

Yes, I have to have a man that when he makes me mad I look at him and say, but he so darn dark and handsome, I can’t stay away 🤭

[lyshawade]

What attracts a men or women to one another if it's not lust, how they carry themselves. Confidence, personality, positive energy, draws you to a person. If someone walks drunk, looks dirty and talks provocative many times turn people off. People respects success!

[Best_Kept_Secret]

Idk about that, I believe it belongs on the people. People who look for qualities and values of a person verses the outter appearance. The inner qualities and values are more attractive than looks that fade.

[goldiegirl]

I was never very physically attracted to my ex husband, but he was funny and had a good personality when we were dating. Or so I thought. As soon as we were married man he got mean, critical, and basically acted like he hated me. And I was pregnant with our daughter. So, then I was not attracted to him at all.

[niciasmaxies]

I think he's talking about the advice give to men to not consider physical attraction when he want a partner for long lasting relationship. Rather than attraction solely will determine the love. But attraction is very important to be able to see other quality.

[cathicakes]

Is that why men often trade in Their partners for younger versions? At some point no matter how hard you try - your looks are gonna go . . .

[strider]

I'm in love with a woman who I physically and mentally felt unattracted to and so problems came up. It got toxic. Now we are broken up. But for some reason I feel like I've made a terrible mistake by losing someone who loved me so much just because of meer attraction
