I mean, really? I know a healthy relationship isn't just about physical attraction, and considering that I've had the worst relationships with the most handsome guys should be a testament to that. But how important is it to be physically attracted to a potential SO?
I'm wondering about this because there is a guy (obviously...
) who is super nice, smart and funny. I like hanging out with him, usually in a group and it was pretty well established that we are friends. He once sent me a drunk text (it was like 2 or 3 AM) saying that I was the possibly the most amazing woman that he'd ever met (Insert heart melt here). He and I ended up at the mall one afternoon because he asked me to help find something for his mom on Sweetest Day (awww...). We ended up at Godiva eating truffle samples and I helped him put together a box for his mom. He bought two boxes and gave me one for Sweetest Day.
Now he texts me to tell me that I look "beautiful" and to wish me luck on exams. He's really a great guy: nice, personable, generous, funny, smart, loves the heck out of his mama, and comes from a great family. I know that a relationship with him would be great and fun and romantic.
The only problem: I am so not physically attracted to him. I tried, but I can't... The thought of kissing him...
. Thank goodness that I'm not in the coloring business right now. (Although I'm pretty sure that it would be the most romantic coloring book ever...
)
Should I give it time? Can physical attraction come if you are really attracted to a person's personality? My friend thinks I should date him, and that the "hotness" isn't important, I just need to find someone who is good to me and be happy. I think I agree, but if I'm not attracted to him, and it doesn't come with time, I'm afraid I'll end up hurting him.
I need some input here. Ladies with DHs and SOs, give me input... What's the most satisfying or important aspect of the relationship? The can't keep your hands off each other
or the emotional
???
