Is this a thing? Do you love your significant other so much that other people aren't as attractive to you?

[Kayayy]

Not just from a guys but a girls POV as well

[btbc92]

Yes, it is a thing. You can be attracted to somebody physically because there's tons of people who are attractive. But your eyes are on who your with. You have no desire to be with other people. Look at people who talk about soulmates and stuff. You think it's always about physical attraction? Nope. It's the soul their attracted to. Because in terms of the "reincarnation" belief, the soul is the same but you can be in a different body and they reconnect right? Whether one really believe in that or not the premise still holds true. The soul is what we should love. Not the flesh. If I say I love somebody, and is truly committed to them, why am I going to worry about other men? They can be attractive all they want, doesn't mean I want to be with them. People who tend to look elsewhere regardless if the person is attractive or not, none of the 10 times either lack self-discipline, or they already wanted to seek elsewhere because it's due to temptation.

Usually when people go broadcasting lovey dovey stuff all over the place its a often a smoke screen to a problem. Usually the opposite.

[btbc92]

It depends. Some really do love their partners, others do exactly what you say.

[Darknut]

The hardest part of it all is weeding out the perfect person. It's so difficult.

[MissKittyz]

My partner kept telling me that's how it is with him. Everyone around him isn't attractive anymore to him except me. He only has eyes for me.

I'm the same way as well tbh. I don't even look at guys like I used to back when I was single. I'm just not interested anymore lol

[R4vedave]

Lol no, this notion isn't just unrealistic, it's unhealthy.

I love my partner for than anyone or anything in the world. It's been over 4 & a half years, and it still feels like the honeymoon phase. I plan on spending the rest of my life with her.

All that being said, of course I still find other people attractive. The majority of people would to.

[SirRexington]

I've found that to be the case for me. Whenever I'm in a relationship and I'm happy in it, I dont really find other women attractive in that same way I once did. I can acknowledge they look pretty but the same lustful thoughts or instinctual desire to imagine them naked is no longer present.

[MrMilti]

No, thats bullshit.

I love my girlfriend beyond all recognition, but that doesn't make me incapable of acknowledging that Scarlet Johanson is a beautiful woman.

So what?
That does not change my love for my girlfriend in any way or form.
Even if Scarlet herself would come to me and confessed her love for me, I still love my girlfriend for the person that she is, while Scarlet is just a pretty wrapping of something, I do not know at all.

[Shamiexo95]

no, its human nature to find others attractive. i never had that problem, neither did my man. we did come to terms that no matter what, there's always going to be someone much more better looking than us. who cares, its human nature. it all boils down to commitment and loyalty.

[CubsterShura]

I think it's true for some guys and untrue for others.

For me, it doesn't really change. I can still notice attractive different around. But hey, I also notice men who are smart, well-spoken, wealthy, etc. Doesn't make a difference, still wouldn't trade my man for anyone else.

[DiscomfortZone]

The question is what is "attractive" and can you recognize the line between theory and practice. In theory, I could absolutely find other women physically attractive and sexually appealing, even if they can't even hold a candle to my wife; in practice, the embodiment of western female sex appeal could strip and offer herself to me, and I would laugh in her face for even trying. So yeah, I get what that post was getting at.

[Rangers]

Well, I haven't had any desire to flirt with anyone after me and my girlfriend made it official. Wonder why? Well, have a look at her and know that she's the most loving and wonderful woman I could ever even dream of talking to, let alone being in a relationship with😍

[Boppy]

In my experience, it's at least possible.

In the deep throes of love I don't feel attracted to anyone else.

Not sure if it always happens for me, or if it's different long-term, though.

[Trooper205]

Yes!! This is absolutely true!! I LOVE my Girlfriend, and it's to the point where everyone else does'nt have any attractiveness!

[slatyb]

I don’t think it’s a thing. I find many women attractive but I’m mature enough to value the relationship I have instead of chasing some fantasy.

[HOAAH]

I love my husband so much that i am not actively trying to attract the opposite sex or even check them out.

[Darknut]

Until the guy in a restaurant drive through pays your meal ahead of you in attempt to get to know you with a nice gesture huh?

[HOAAH]

@Darknut I have had guys hit on me, which i find creepy since i dont know them.

[Darknut]

Well going by that, at one time even your husband was creepy because you didn't know him.

[HOAAH]

@Darknut I met my husband at age 10... kids are not creeps. They are cute.

[Darknut]

Still... you see what im getting at though? There was a time you didn't know each other. Same applies at a later age too.

[Anonymous]

My boyfriend says this. He says I’m the only girl who can really turn him on now. And I feel the same way about him. Not that we don’t appreciate the attractiveness of others, but we only get turned on by each other.

[ariadneR]

I think so.
For me it is. There is only him in my eyes now. I tell him all the time. To me he is everything. The be all and end all. He is it. The only one.

[Lightning8]

Well yes, but people are afraid of allowing themselves to feel that way because most people aren't competent enough in the art of loving to recognize it. When they see it, they tend to think of it as something creepy or of lesser value.

[arabgoddess]

Yes that's what I want..
P. S. Who is this asfand guy 😍 😍

[bellapizza]

I can do that with a man i love like yes other guys can be attractive but to me is the most because i love him with my heart

[WhistleForTheChoir]

If you're a man, who loves a woman like that, she WILL leave you, and call you a clingy creep. No doubt about it.

[whipitout]

I respectfully disagree

[WhistleForTheChoir]

@whipitout women want men who are incapable of loving them like that to start loving them like that, that's true. But if those men ever did, the woman would start to say he's just boring now for some vague, unknown reason. When it comes to women's taste in men, they always want to be chasing the sunset. Y'all wouldn't know what to do if the sun waited up for you and you actually caught it.

I can find a hundred articles that paint actual devotion in a bad light. The justification seems to be that if a man is ACTUALLY devoted to a woman, then that's just because he doesn't have any other options and has no value. He's just boring.

[whipitout]

I see your point. I get that it may be the case a lot of the time, but honestly, I just cannot say it's applicable to all women. The majority of women will find it attractive if a guy is wanted by many women, but it actually turns me off a bit if I feel like I'm competing or that all of the other women want him. I want a weirdo who can be equally devoted to me as I am to them. I am interested in those articles you mention though, and if you'd be willing, I'd love for you to link them or pm them to me.

[producer]

Yeah kinda. Thing is. When I'm desperate like really desperate, lots of girls start looking good to me.

[Laozi]

Yup. When you're in love you don't even know there are other girls in the world.

[Anonymous]

Happened to me when my girlfriend died. I couldn't find any other girls attractive for years. I used to just masturbate to the memories of her. It sounds a lot weirder now that I write it out.

[whipitout]

I hope this is something you've managed to overcome 😢It might sound weird to write, but it's a totally valid way to feel and totally okay.

[Anonymous]

Yes, It was like striking gold when I met my boyfriend. 😃

[Jamie05rhs]

Yes, this is a thing. When you're in love, you can see a girl who is a 10.5 and you just completely ignore her.
