Twitter Thread Reveals People Arguing Over The Viability Of Dating Someone You Aren't Physically Attracted To

Sometimes, dating can be quite confusing. It's not as if every man we've gone out with has been an absolute crackhead.

The majority of them, however, are nice guys who truly have their act together. The issue is that, despite how wonderful they seem on paper, we might not actually find them physically attractive.

It's not that they're unattractive or anything; the chemistry and butterflies just aren't there some of the time.

We go out on a few more dates in the hopes that our attraction will grow over time. We're guilty of prolonging relationships even when they don't work out, hoping they will, simply because we want to find a decent guy.

In all honesty, we wouldn't advise it. There have been times when people enter relationships where they are physically attracted to their partners, and it doesn’t last.

You know, it’s often said that the eyes eat first, but there are times when we can be blinded by other factors. When the scales finally fall from our eyes, we are left with nothing but regrets, and that’s not pleasant.

When Twitter user skyaddict6 tweeted about how she could never date someone she is not physically attracted to, a full discussion ensued. To learn more about this entire topic, keep scrolling down.

1. No matter the type of bond, physical attraction makes it fully satisfying

2. You'll never enjoy sexual activities without being physically attracted

If you are not attracted to them, it won't work

@emokardashianx

You're probably going to feel a lot less pressure to "perform" when you date someone you're not physically attracted to, which will free you up to just be yourself and have fun. This is essential to any happy, long-lasting relationship, as it ensures that any chemistry you have with each other is real and not fabricated.

3. When you start wondering why you chose them in the first place...

4. If this commenter doesn't like you, you will definitely know

@decent_itohan

5. Let them be with someone who genuinely loves them

@ElviraEleli

6. Whether or not people find them attractive, what matters is that you're attracted to them

@BlaqHoeSun

Physical attraction might be immediate or develop over time; intellectual attraction happens quickly, while emotional attraction requires time to fully understand. In the end, it's best to wait to commit to a relationship with someone until you feel entirely attracted to them.

So, going on dates to test out physical chemistry and connection is absolutely okay.

7. Leave them alone so someone who finds them attractive can get a chance

@itskierrad

8. If you were mature, you would not lead someone on

@PatrickHugues1

9. This commenter can't seem to figure out why

@YogSothothsDad

10. This commenter will date as long as they are treated right

@shuthefuckupzyx

11. I'm not fully happy, so I feel like I'm fooling him

@meawsten

12. Why would you? Why?

@rain03388819

Believe it or not, there are certain people who date others they are not physically attracted to merely because they wish they were attracted to them. In most cases, it doesn’t end well, as you might not be able to maintain that "attraction" for long.
