Is there a difference between physical and sèxual attraction?
Personally, I think there is. Physical means you are drawn to their looks. Séxual means you want to sleep with them. I believe they can be mutually exclusive but that's just me.

I agree that they're different. For me, physical attraction is almost always based on surface qualities, like looks or voice. Sexual attraction has more to do with personality, chemistry. I'm physically attracted to lots and lots of people that I have absolutely no desire to sleep with."
Oh god do I ever know that feeling. I have this old friend of mine who if you used the words "Fuckable" to describe she was banging hot I mean nothing missing there but I had absolutely no desire to actually do it.
She was boring. Her personality was just like.... Always High, Not particularly interesting in her activities and wasn't learning a whole lot around her. Not a lot of mystery to it. Worked at the Dollar store? wasn't doing a whole lot to really keep the conversation going unfortunately.
I discovered before long I was bored to tears even though I would have placed her HIGH on the list of outward physical attractiveness. I very well think I am demisexual sometimes.
I mean sure I'm sure sleeping with her would have felt good as an abstract concept but it's like... Why? Why form a relationship here? SHes boring.
