Is emotional connections just a myth?

No, anon... Human beings are complicated critters... We all have feelings, thoughts, desires and sensory impulses/reflexes. All of those need to feel satisfied for us to be considered truly happy beings.

No, it's very real..

Diving straight into the heart of it, let's debunk a myth with a truth bomb! Emotional connections aren't just myths; they're the very fabric of true, meaningful partnerships. Imagine your favorite love song or movie. What makes it resonate? That deep, unspoken vibe that makes your heart dance, right? That's the stuff of emotional connections. It's about understanding and feeling understood, sharing laughter and tears, and having someone who knows what you're going to say before the words leave your mouth. Far from being mythical, emotional connections are real, powerful, and oh-so-crucial in the dance of love. 🎉💖 Keep the faith; it’s out there waiting for you to discover and cherish it!

Imagine if you found someone who strongly believes that it is the job of the lioness or female jaguar to bring him food. He goes out into the wild (or even a zoo) and finds that lioness and he's looking at it like, "I give you food so you should give me food." He's very likely to be disappointed even if there's 1 in 100k lioness who would happily toss him a leg of lamb or steak. Most likely that lioness rips his throat open when he tries to eat her food tho. This is like the guy who believes men and women exchange things equally.

Then the answer to your question doesn't really matter.

Yes, you can find a woman who you have mutual attraction to. But it'd be wrong to think that you are attracted to the same things. Regardless of what thing you want to identify in my opinion.

yes it's absolutely a complete myth and bullshit propaganda pushed by society

there's no such thing as "emotional connection"

it's either you find the person attractive or you don't find them attractive

when you find them attractive, you make excuses for their bad behavior. when you don't find them attractive, you find reasons to demonize them for the simplest things. it's called the Halo Effect

heck you can find an "emotional connection" with your friends of the opposite sex but the reason you don't fuck them is because you don't find them attractive

I have an emotional connection with my girlfriend. Also a sexual connection, intellectual connection and other things.

Are you saying you have never had an emotional connection with anybody, male or female, in your entire life?

[ProbablyClueless]

No? Lol emotional connections are extremely real.

[IslaTheWitch]

No. They're seldom reciprocal.
