Does physical attraction really matter in a relationship?
Someone once sang that if you want to be happy for the rest of your life, you should never make a pretty woman your wife. But not everyone agrees. While âprettyâ means different things to different people, many experts say that for a relationship to flourish, there should be some level of attraction.
WebMD defines attraction as a sense of interest, desire, or closeness you feel toward another person, and there are many different types. For example, physical, social, emotional, romantic and task attraction.
âPhysical attraction is often the first thing to grab our interest when we are looking for potential partners,â notes verywellmind.com. This initial attraction pushes us to want to get to know the person better.
A 2015 study found that being physically attracted to your partner is linked to greater marriage satisfaction and longevity. But physical attraction alone isnât enough to keep a couple together long-term. Itâs also important that you share similar values, goals, and priorities.
âIf partners are not connected in these other realms, their physical attraction might not be able to sustain a more serious relationship,â says clinical psychologist and professor at Yeshiva University, Sabrina Romanoff.
Megan Wildhood writes that she never believed that physical attraction was important, and felt that emotional attraction mattered more. It was only when her marriage fell apart that she realized it might have lasted had there been mutual physical attraction.
âI didnât realize how important physical attraction is until I realized that there wasnât any between my ex and me. That was not the only reason for our divorce, but the lack of mutual attraction didnât help,â explains Wildhood. She goes on to say that physical attraction can be likened to a glue holding a couple together.
âItâs the foundation, itâs that invisible force continuing to propel you and your partner toward each other, the power that keeps you fighting for one another so you donât walk away after 13 years together as total strangers,â concludes Wildhood.
Many netizens rallied around the woman and expressed shock at the behavior of her now ex
