How to predict romantic attraction?

Do you believe in romantic attraction without sexual attraction?

  • In my opinion, a romantic attraction won't last without sexual attraction. You need to feel attracted sexually to keep the romance. It doesn't mean you have to have sex. You can choose not having sex now if you want to save for marriage. But knowing you are sexually attracted to him/her is important. I won't marry someone I am comfortable with but not turning me on. How about you? Is romantic attraction enough for you? Can you feel deeply in love with someone and make the romance work while sexual attraction is out of the picture?

  • Answer:

    For me, as a guy, they go pretty much hand in hand, however, I don't believe this is always the case for women. I've been in several relationships where there was a lot of sex in the beginning, but after a few months, the sex cuts back to amounts far smaller then I am happy with. In these situations, the girls I have been with have still wanted the romance & attention, but not the physical intimacy. This has always been quite frusterating and hurtful as it conveys the message that "I'm no longer attracted to you, but I still want you to do things for me"

This question has a rather simple answer: For men there's no such thing. Except maybe with messenger pen pals. For women I'm not quite qualified to say it, but I think they are the only ones who would experience such a thing. But I don't think there would be many. Edit: Well.. it was suppose to be a simple answer anyway.

This is an interesting question. Very often I find that I am romantically attracted to my boyfriend, but I do not usually like or pursue sex. I would marry him knowing this and be perfectly happy having little or no sex at all. I think I am unique though, b/c he would agree with you: sexual attraction is needed.

I think that now as a teenager, sexual attraction is less important becuase i don't intend on having sex. But I think as a person gets older it becomes more important becuase of marrage. Imagine marrying someone without being sexually attracted, and being forced to do it to have kids.
