Yes.

That said, I don't know how to be sexy. I can express love, but I can't really express lust. I guess I am pretty neutered when you think about it.

sexy is something you are, not something you do.

I have tried dating one woman who had a great personality and I enjoyed being around her, but I never was really interested in getting intimate with her. I simply was not physically attracted to her, even though I tried giving it time and hoping something would develop. If no physical attraction exists don't even bother trying to get into a relationship with that person. You likely will not ever view them as anything more than a friend, who you happen to occasionally get intimate with.

Women can generally sense if you aren't all that into them, and you will end up causing them a lot of grief and anxiety trying to figure out why their boyfriend isn't very sexually interested in them. Plus you will end up breaking their hearts when you come to the realization that you will have to dump them because they are just not the right person for you.

Okay, look here.


People are going to be attracted to what they are attracted to. You can't force something that is not there. If you are not attracted to anyone, that is just how it is going to be. Attraction is not a choice. Fortunately, attraction is not completely physical. There are qualities that are non-physical that one can be attracted to.

Kid, go and meet women and talk to them. Also, pay attention to their body language, how they move, their voice, how they look at you, etc. Take notice of how you feel around some of them. Eventually, you may become attracted to more types of women.

Another thing you can do is work on yourself. As you better yourself in the way that matters the most, you might find yourself more accepting (at least that is what happened to me).

Key advice, don't try to force life. It never works.

Are you asking about the often heard comment where women say that for them sexual attraction is based on personality and takes several dates to happen?

Having a "good personality" don't pay the bills and it doesn't get women's panties wet
