This culture is obessed with physical appearance... I hope she received some comfort from at least some of these posts, while many were completely off- topic. I am experiencing something similar. Ive been in a relationship for 2.5 years and the passion has faded on my side a lot. I stress over it and long for it to come back. I know I have deeper issues to deal with in myself, but I won't give up because I believe if it was once there, we can create it again. Real relationships are not perfect. There are ups and downs. Don't believe everything you see in movies and in books. Everyone else seems to be doing that and they too will hit a point where they feel as you and I do. Sadly, they will probably give up. I pray you find it again. Focus on the positive.

I was married to a man I was not sexually attracted to. Now I am with another man who I am VERY attracted to. It makes a huge difference to me. Sex is also a form of communication and it is just as important as being able to talk things out, etc.

A strange this is--this isn't the first time its happened to him. He dated someone else before me and the exact same thing occurred. But guess what? After the breakup the other person eventually became attracted to him again. Am I in the Twilight Zone?

^^^^ the truth shall set you and him free. You may regain the attraction toward him, because you will not have him any more. May be you need a new experience or emotional (up and down) love life to keep the fire burning.

You can see couples complaining about sexless marriages all over the Internet. the strange thing is they don't want to let each other go.

It can come back, it's happened to me. I split wiv my gf coz I wasn't sexually attracted to her, we were in a boring stagnant relationship. After a few months away from our stagnant relationship the attraction came back, but we eventually finished. Now in my new relationship after 2.5 years my gf finished with me coz she wasn't sexually attracted to me, but still says she loves me so much and always will and there will always be a special place in her heart for me, and wishes things could be different and all that, iv tried to cut contAct wiv her but she won't leave me alone yet doesn't want to give tings ago from fresh, like start dating, doin fun things going away n jus doin spontaneous things like we used to. She's doesn't understand attraction comes n goes in relationships, she's only 21 and I'm 28. It's very confusing n frustrating for me but I guess it's jus swings and round abouts

I think men should just quit asking women to marry them altogether. Let them ask if they're that hot on the issue. Don't want to coerce anybody into anything after all.

It isn't like I am a judge so you don't have to worry. All I am saying is that this is my opinion and that I am entitled to it. Everyone else is free to disagree and that is ok.
After careful consideration, I deem you a whacko.

Splitting heirs will get you in all kinds of legal trouble. Don't do it, man.

there's physical attraction and mental attraction. both are required to maintain a healthy relationship, but neither of them are needed when there is no sex going on.

sex is important, even if two people are REALLY into each other, if they stop having sex, it makes them try to fill that void elsewhere.

and sometimes, people can be really attracted to each other but the sex sucks, and if that's the case then you're pretty much SOL unless u learn how to have sex better.
