I just need some advice. I went out with this guy- I feel sorta confused at this point. He is a very touchy feely kinda person... so he held my hand, hugged me, put his arms around me... I was very turned on by his moves throughtout the day.. I mean he is what I would consider a good looking guy and he is well built and works out and everything. BUT the problem is that now I am a bit confused. I am not mentally turned on by him.. he has a very thick accent and at this point I think he is sort of weird I guess you could say. I think what I am trying to ask is can you be phsically turned on by a guy and not be mentally turned on, infact I am in a way mentally turned off.. The quys that I were physically attracted to, I was never turned off by their personality. I always thought that the two were suppose to go hand in hand..thats how it always happened to be in the past. Maybe I am not giving this guy enough of a chance.. I don't know. Has this happened to anyone else? thanks- Which is more important if you could only have one???

I think mental stimulation every time. I find if a man can make me laughand generally enjoy myself then he becomes more attractive physically to me. I really think yr starting at a disadvantage as IMO you will only start getting more turned off by him, ie his physical self will not be enough for you, and that leaves you no where to go.
Just to contradict myself somewhat, are you sure he wasn't just acting a bit weird because he might have bee nnervous for example? it would be a shame to not give him a chance if his personality hasn't really been giving enough opportunity to shine.

A guy definitely needs to stimulate me mentally, to REALLY stimulate me sexually. The best sex I've ever had was with a guy that made me laugh and talked to me before, during, and after sex. If the guy can't do that, in my opinion, it's not even worth it.

Hi, Thanks for your guys advice. Well actually we talked on the phone for about 2 months before we met. I did not find him interesting on the phone, but thought I would give it a chance to see if things were different in person.. He is a really nice guy and turns me on physically, but not mentally... is that possible? ANy experiences out there?

Yes, I dated a guy for a while who I was attracted to physically, but not mentally. We were totally different, and, like you, I thought he was a little weird. There were some things about him that I didn't like. Not bad things, but things that were just different from me. Physically, though, it was great. We had a great time sexually, but other than that, he sort of annoyed me. Finally, he broke it off, and it was because although we had it going on in the sack, there wasn't really much else between us. At the time I would have been content to let it go on, because the sex was great. I don't think he was comfortable with that. He was a romantic type who would have preferred something more meaningful. He told me he thought he was falling in love with me, and for the wrong reasons. He was right. If we had let the physical attraction and great sex fool us into thinking we were in love, eventually down the road we would have been miserable.

of course its possible. Its happening to you isn't it? I'm a guy, but I have that experience all the time. I'll see a woman is very attractive physically but after talking to her find that I'm not attracted to her personality at all. I'm not sure why you think that is so strange. It is normal and happens all the time.
for me at least, emotional and mental attration is more important than physical. Don't get me wrong, I prefer a woman that is physically attractive, but if its going to be a serious relationship, the emotional and mental part has to be there.

I think you've got some good advice here. In the long run you'll get much more from the mental stimulation than you'll get from that hour in the sack. good luck.

I was kinda wondering what your girls thought was weird about the guys you said that had the different peronality. Because for me...it takes a while to get comfortable with a girl before my personality comes out. Around my freinds I have a really good personality and they all love me. But when I meet a new girl...one that is outside my group of freinds..it takes a while before I get to be myself. I think this is one of my weaknesses in dating, because girls might think I am kinda dull at first. I am just kinda shy and quiet to them at first. After a while I act like myself and everything is fine. Anyone else understand what I am talking aobut?

For a longterm relationship- without the connectiveness, emotionally, mentally, and physiologically, things are not in your favor. But if the two of you were not looking for that in each other than maybe a different kind of relationship will suite you both. But be careful to be considerate of each other. if he is seeking a long term relationship do not let him misbelieve that he is going to get that from you. The reverse goes for him to.
