    I think most women, like myself, can find a man sexy, good looking, but not feel attracted to that man or see themselves having intercourse with that man. Most women need to be connected to a man to be intimate with him, regardless of how he looks though... just thinking.. very good topic!! Thanks for having these conversations ❤

    I love my husband but he was stylistically challenged when we met 😂 he's handsome af, funny, intelligent, educated, respectful and a gentleman. Really how he dressed was the only thing that kinda bothered me, and I remember I mentioned it once and he laughed and said he's never been stylish when it comes to casual clothes so he actually loves taking me along when he needs new clothes now. Mind you it's not labels it's just about quality and how you coordinate cuz he wasn't even doing that before lol. Hes done the same for me with something i wasn't the strongest at doing until he helped me. Your partner will have something you're less favorable of but if you're trying to improve a bunch of ish about them especially out the gate, that's absolutely red flag. 😂 I remember someone said Oh Ciara changed how Russell dressed she didn't love him for him but if clothes was all you had to worry about and their character is A1, chile be THANKFUL 😂 I KNOW I AM!

    Attraction is definitely different from sexual attraction for women. My husband and I have been married for 4 years (we’re both 27) and we had a pretty rough patch about two years ago. I think my husband is very handsome and I am definitely attracted to him. But during that rough time, I had ZERO sexual attraction to him because of our relationship in general. So he could walk into the room and objectively I could say ‘yeah he looks good,’ but I was ready to jump him not jump his bones! 🤣🤣🤣

  • @Necipooh224
    @Necipooh224 11 месяцев назад +26

    Majority of the time attraction is what sparks the interest because you don’t know their personality. Someone can not be your type or not necessarily attractive to you but they aren’t ugly and as you get to know them attraction grows. But you can not be with someone who you find absolutely ugly so everyone saying attraction doesn’t matter is lying because those compliments you’re so sexy/beautiful/handsome would be hard for you to say knowing you’re lying to yourself. Can you get over it yes generations ago in arranged marriages they got over it but it’s not a great foundation of a relationship to tolerate the looks of your partner. Also questions about attraction in marriage are irrelevant because at that point the vow and bond outweighs that and beauty fades over time. Which I feel is why in the Bible it states to marry the beautiful woman of your youth and be intoxicated by her because you will hold on to that beauty and passion as you age with that person.

    Here's my surface example of physical attraction vs sexual attraction...When you see someone who's cute/fine/praying up a storm/worshiping with an open heart/exemplifying good Godly character, etc., BUT thinking of them in a romantic way never crosses your mind. You admire what you see, but you don't want it.

  • @karresses4376
    @karresses4376 11 месяцев назад +19

    I agree with Jess. There is definitely a difference between physical attraction and sexual attraction. E.g- Omari Hardwick...him as ghost in power could get it, seeing him as himself, his mannerisms, his personality, the way he talks etc...absolutely not sexually attracted to him. But it doesnt seem like that was the case in the scenario. It seemed like she just wasnt attracted to him at all and overlooked that because she prioritized his other qualities.

    I'm with Jess on this one. Great dialog, by the way. The reason I believe you two are at different ends of the spectrum as it relates to sexual attraction is because women and men have two TOTALLY different mindsets when it comes to sex. We have sex w/our heart, and men have sex with their penis. If our heart isn't in it, neither is Ms. Kitty. This is why women could still be in a relationship, and be emotionally elsewhere.

    Jess, your personality is so big! I absolutely love it! I understood every stance presented in this conversation. As a very married (almost 10years) with kids - wife, I get the physical vs sexual attraction topic. They can be synonymous but can also be absent… ex: I can love all the things you do for me, your drive, your tenacity, the way you father.. but IF your “heat” doesn’t stimulate my jacuzzi then the sexual attraction is not there (for now). However, if that haircut; yes, something as simple as grooming, can make my water fall, I have both (physical & sexual) attractions to you!
    In my case, I’m very vocal - you will meet my needs! And I will show/talk you through it. My husband knows where I stand because I’m not afraid of the hard conversations and vice versa. We speak without ill intent and that works for us during times of self doubt or feelings of lack.

  • @1babytee1
    @1babytee1 11 месяцев назад +3

    No sex in 8 months and your married is wild. Physical attraction can be different. In my opinion the lady who commented about this probably does not like having sex with her husband at all which is why she isn't sexually attracted to him. There's things that may turn her off and she needs to communicate that to him so they can work thru it. Or maybe she abstained and married to find he's a micro although that's a sensitive topic i can see ways to get around that as well if he's a great man otherwise. I agree counseling but mental and sexual counseling for this couple can bring them thru this.

    Physical attraction is what draws you to the person(your attracted to the way they look). Once you get past their physical appearance and get to know the heart and mind of that person will determine whether or not you decide to want to be in a relationship with that person. There also should be compromise when it comes to decision on different interest.

After you get all that brains and good natured person in your life if you have no physical attraction someone will come along and break that for you. This is the main reason why people go out and cheat and don’t know why they did it. Why the second part of the attraction came in “the physical” I don’t care what anybody says there must be something that they like about that person….and they the only one who knows what it is..anything they should know

    This is probably the therapist in me but I’d want to know why my partner feels the way he does. So for the gels example, why does he not like when I wear hears that make me taller than him? Does that change how he sees himself as a man? Or the green hair example? Was he not able to express himself as a child or earlier relationships and this is a manifestation of that? Because at the end of the day, if I’m with that person I ultimately want to respect your wishes and desires and this would provide me with more understanding. It really boils down to communication so I think it’s less about who gives in but how can we come to an understanding.

    I just feel like as her spouse it would be hurtful to hear that it’s going to take more for me to have sex with you. It sounds like taking vitamins. They are nasty and to swallow them sucks but the benefit of it is great. Who wants to be with someone like that. But unfortunately she is married and you can’t divorce because of physical attraction. Like if my husband said that I’d be devastated. I think my husband is fine fr and there are times when I’m not in the mood but I can’t imagine not being sexually attracted, and never in the mood. That really is sad and I think the church does need to stop saying just focus on the inside (or the outside isn’t important). It’s so important that you love what you see. Apples to oranges conversation but we don’t buy cars or invest in 30 year mortgages if the house is absolutely terrible (unless you’re a real estate agent who does house flips) we look for something we like at least a little.

Attraction it what makes me interested, but the personality character faith is what makes the relationship progress and possibly leads to marriage. That's me, tho can't speak for everyone.

    1) Character over initial physical attraction............baseline, you should like your person physically. They do not have to be the "ideal" image you've had in your mind for that to be so. I agree with Jonathan too, it's part of the whole thing but not a major thing in and of itself.
    2) I think we need to also make sure that our minds are renewed from what the world deems attractive. Best believe the image of what is physically attractive in our minds is what we've seen. Based on what "society" has made us believe of that image over time, we've formed a liking to it. Can easily be reprogrammed.
    3) Sexual attraction definitely belongs in marriage and when I think about it most women are largely emotionally and mentally stimulated. Physical attraction does help but in terms of priorities, I think a woman will choose a man who loves and treats her right even if he doesn't meet her ideal spec.
    4)When you're married you are locked in. This is your sexual attraction not by feelings but by choice for the rest of your life no matter what.

    I find that I’m more attracted to my husband when his hair is cut & I think it’s obvious why but I do I become a little more affectionate toward him so being physically attractive definitely does matter.
    Also I’m glad you guys brought up the height difference..I’m 5’4 & my hub is about an inch or 2 taller but I feel some way about that so I opt out of wearing heels most times 🤷🏽‍♀️

    Oh and yes getting away from home helps. Not having to worry about cleaning up all you gotta do it get up get dressed go have fun have sex and repeat. It's amazing 😂 stress really wreaks havoc on my sex drive so the more my husband and I get away go do fun things, take trips, etc., and I don't have to worry about my stressful job as a GM, the more we get busy😂

    What the man commented about females being more into physical attraction I kind of get it because vocally only females really are out here saying I want a man 6 foot a lot of money dark skin muscular etc. men don’t usually vocalize having a list of she has to be so and so tall, long hair, etc. men are more into sexual attraction but if you look at all the women a man has dated they usually all look very different. But women are more willing to sacrifice their physical qualities in a partner like if he doesn’t check all boxes but is funny or romantic they are willing to date outside of their list. But if a man is not attracted initially to a woman usually he will not continue to pursue her just because she is nice or funny

  • @GrowingWithM
    @GrowingWithM 11 месяцев назад +3

    I get what Jonathan is saying, you can objectively think someone is good looking/ handsome but not be attracted to them - thats a different thing. However when there is already an attraction its already partially sexual , but I guess sometimes it can increase or decrease based off different things like what the person does, the moods etc

    I have a scenario - I was connected with this guy, on paper my type, his personality was great, he was ambitious, kind.. really great except, he was on the heavier side, and I just couldn’t get past it. I spoke to my parents, older women from my church and they all agreed that if I didn’t think I could get past it, end things early and don’t drag it on. He deserved someone who like him completely. I don’t regret that decision.

    Also i want to say if being attracted to someone doesn't mean physically and sexually. As a Christian who are not to have premarital sex how we gonna know whether or not you're sexually attracted to the person. Because again im a Christian so I'm talking from that prospective 8 months without sex it its crazy i didn’t there was such things (as an unmarried person ) because the bibles says not to deprived each other from sex except for a short period of time like fasting because that's when the devils come and mess everything up. In my opinion( not an expert) i think there is more to it than attraction with the lady you're talking abt. Maybe it's rape, abused, infidelity, mental issues, sickness, something deeper. Because to me i don't understand how you attracted to someone physically and not sexually. I pray that person find help asap before it gets worse.

I’ve known many mothers that struggled with getting their libido back and it caused tension, affairs, and divorce. Where does one go when it’s taboo to say “i want to respect my partner as someone who went through childbirth BUT I am also an equal partner with needs?”

    Jess is right about the distinction. I can find someone attractive but not find them sexually attractive. That’s been very few and far between.
    For example, Liam Hemsworth is attractive, but I’m not attracted to him. Idris is attractive AND I’m attracted to him.

  • @lifewithdeedee3392
    @lifewithdeedee3392 11 месяцев назад +1

    Being attracted to someone is far deeper than the eye ball. It's how you feel. When you have feelings they look good to you. Example I don't have feelings for your husband so to me weather he has a hair cut or not, he just looks the same and he does not look good to ME. Another example I was dating this guy about 23yrs ago. I would talk to my sister about hus s€x being great. When we broke up I laughed and joked about his size and the fact that he just lay on top and pump his butt😂😂😂😂 in reality it was awful, but while I loved him it was good. It's really about how you feel about them

    Jess I totally understand what you were saying lol because as someone who is waiting until marriage I find that when I dated in the past I would sometimes think the other person is physically attractive but did not see them in a manner that was sexually attractive. Which had nothing to do with lust… And honestly that’s how the mindset of you need to “test it “ before is normalized, but that’s a whole other convo….

  • @1ofakiynd
    @1ofakiynd 11 месяцев назад +1

    I agree with Jess. There's many people that I'm very attracted to that I'm not sexually attracted to. I think maybe it's more of a woman thing than men. Maybe men's baseline for attraction in general is sexual attraction. If they're not sexually attractive then maybe they're not attracted in general.

    Physical attraction is very important to me, it’s the first thing that I see, the first impression, and sex is very important in a mariage so I need to be attracted to my partner. And that doesn’t mean that I will lower down my standards just because somebody is pleasant to my eyes but I need both which is totally possible in my eyes.

  • @colletteacciani290
    @colletteacciani290 11 месяцев назад +2

    Whew no sex in 8 months is very delicate. I feel like although sexual attraction/physical intimacy isn't of utmost importance, it is somewhere in the realm of a healthy relationship category. Like that would at some point cause other issues with self-esteem and confidence within yourself. My question would be does the husband feel the same way and if so what dynamic of the marriage has changed to cause the drough.

As man and wife both have to be there for each other physically and sexually through prayer!
