| Re: Can Things Work Without Attraction?
I think at first, when trying to date someone and see if it goes somewhere, you must be physically attracted to someone before you can be emotionally attracted to someone. You just need that first.
However, I bet that if you asked couples that have been married for 10 years or more, some would say they don't find their spouse physically attractive (anymore). But, what is one to do? If there are kids involved, or a lot of possessions that would make ending the relationship difficult, people prefer to just "float through" the rest of their time together. And that equates to less physical attraction, and less instances of physical acts (hugs/kisses/sex, whatever).
It's a shame really, and I think that's a main reason for so much adultery. |
