Can you love someone and not be physically attracted to them?

And im not talking about platonic love or the love between family members.

Yes, someone who’s asexual for example.

Never thought of that. That’s a good example 😊@Reject

@SW-User Happy to help! They’re some proof of how romantic love and sexual feelings are not necessarily the same thing despite how closely associated these two are.

SW-User

Well the thing is she’s very insecure because he’s always complimenting other women. Then he’ll say „I love you that’s ridiculous for you to be jealous“ yet he won’t compliment her. It’s confusing to me that’s why I posted this question. @Reject

@SW-User Oh. Well he doesn’t sound asexual if he’s always complimenting other women. 😟 That doesn’t sound good. I’d try talking to him about it. Ask why he doesn’t compliment her.

SW-User

Nope in his case he’s not asexual just being a jerk i think. Poor thing, i feel bad for her @Reject

@SW-User Yeah... it looks that way for sure. I hope he’s not just using her somehow. He should be confronted about it before we assume anything, but be prepared for the worst. That’s my advice for that situation. Try to be there for her. These things are never easy.
