That is, if you're a guy, how many times have you been attracted to a girl and she's also attracted to you? I've had this maybe 2 or 3 times in the past and it's unlikely to occur again. I imagine that attractive people tally up well over 100 times when someone they found sexually attractive also found them sexually attractive, which is why attractive people are happier and fall in love more often.

I had this happen with my second wife who has since left. Normally I have to lower the bar and learn to be attracted to women who are attracted to me, its better than the alternative.

I haven't counted and have no desire to.

I don't know the answer because of the millions of girls I've been attracted to, I don't know how many have been attracted to me.

But I know for a fact between 21-100 have been attracted to me.

Regardless of my looks, only 2-3 girls have ever been mutually romantically attracted to me in my whole life, AFAIK...

As I think I may have mentioned to the OP in another post, just a guy's looks alone by themselves are not going to cut it, at least for most women, IME...

The heading on your thread contradicts your OP. There can be mutual attraction that's not sexual. The sexual attraction sometimes develops later. So...I can't answer your poll.

Voted for "more than 21, less than 100".
Because that's based on # of partners, which I presume (I could be mistaken)
is a proxy for mutual sexual attraction (of some degree, of any duration long enough to accomplish the deed).
