If a guy likes you, is he automatically sexually attracted to you?

[Anonymous]

If a guy likes you are they sexually attracted to you? Like is it hand-in-hand? Do you have to be sexually attracted to someone in order to like them?

[Mystique01]

My answer is YES. I have never known a guy to "like" a girl (yes...in THAT way) and not also be attracted to her in a sexual way. It just doesn't compute!

In fact, ask yourself this...as a girl, if you like a guy, don't you also find him sexually attractive too?

I don't know about other young women on this board, but when I REALLY like a guy, the physical/sexual attraction is also there. It may not be there right from the get-go, but when I like a guy, there's a pretty HIGH chance that I'm also sexually attracted to him as well. I figure guys are the same way.

[I figure guys are the same way.] Some are, lots are not.

So, are you saying that most guys can like a girl, but NOT be sexually attracted to her? Are we talking about the same thing??

[Anonymous]

Yes. I've never heard of a guy liking a girl that he thought was ugly. If you like someone it's personality and sex appeal. They might not be the sexiest thing alive but it's something attractive about that person.

if a guy likes you. I am sure he likes everything in you. and usually guys of our age. Most importantly go for LOOKS... so more physical attraction.

Looks and physical attraction can hold a number of serious guys at distance. A girl investing everything in looks seems superficial: good for a few f*cks but trouble afterwards.

A normal guy is usually easily sexually attracted, so if he likes you it can happen easily

[Do you have to be sexually attracted to someone in order to like them?]

I remember quite a few ladies I like without being sexually attracted and quite a few I was sexually attracted to without knowing more than their looks, thus without really knowing them.

Men easily dissociate lust from love and/or sympathy.

I'm not gonna lie--looks are important to me. I wouldn't like someone that I wasn't physically attracted to. However, I wouldn't like someone only because of that, nor would that necessitate a lustful attraction.

Looks definitely matter, but to me at least there's a difference in visual appeal. Girls you just think look good you'd rather look them up and down, but girls that you like you just wanna stare into their eyes and see their smile. It's always possible that sexual attraction occurs, but for me at least when I like someone I'd just rather spend time with them, exploring every aspect of who they are, not just their appearance.

no.. but generally the only time that I haven't been sexually attracted to a girl I Like, is if theyre an uggo...that sounds horrible. but its the truth 95%

I've liked girls that were not by any means beautiful, I liked them for their personality, and haven't been eye humping them. I think it's possible to like someone and not be sexually attracted to them.
