    Absolutely however I have to say that my longest lasting relationship was with someone I wasnt initially attacted too but grew to love them as a best friend first and so on... Some people are exactly what you are looking for and then they open their mouth and that attraction goes buh bye

    Yeah, sure. I'm also attracted to a lot of people I have no interest in pursuing.

    Have you seen the crush threads? Forums run on initial attraction, you trade pics, vids, maybe cam and (lord forbid) talk, then the happy feeling wears off and you find the next victi....ermmmm, crush.

    Defiantly! The first time I saw my boyfriend I was instantly attracted! Never thought I'd stand a chance with him! We were both in other relationships and within 2 months of getting to know each other at work we both fell for each other. It's been over a year now and we are both as loved up as we have been since day 1!

    yup but just because there is initial attraction doesn't mean i will actually have interest in that person

    I believe in a thing called love
    I believe that children are our future
    I believe I can fly
    I believe I can touch the sky
    I believe for every drop of rain that falls a flower grows
    And I believe in the song, "I Believe in You" by Don Williams, but I'm not going to bother quoting it now because I believe no one will recognize it...

    As long as there is substance in the relationship. I can not go by nearly infatuation.

    Thats my point. Through correspondence is the only way to develop an interest for that person. Since attraction comes in all forms not just the physical.

    Is all this still about someone telling you they weren't into you?

    This is about most women claiming they are open minded, not picky. So i wanted to know what women had to say about this.

    Being "open-minded" is not the same as not having standards or preferences.

    Don't believe in it, or don't experience it?

    That's interesting. I was dating someone when I saw my future husband and the chemistry we had was like explosive. It was like nothing I ever experienced!

    I suppose everyone's life experience is different.

    You are lucky. :smile:

    of course. but it usually doesn't evolve into anything of substance.

    Not experiencing it sounds like some degree of asexuality. Not believing seems off to me. Some people clearly feel attraction.
