Increasing Attraction...
Sometimes when I am talking with my bf and we're not being even remotely erotic... I'll still somehow be turned on by him. Even if I think about him in non-erotic ways, just thinking about him in general is arousing. As time goes by, I have noticed my attraction for him has increased. He says he feels the same way towards me too.
I've never encountered this before... in past relationships the attraction was intense initially, then leveled off (and stayed that way for a while) and eventually tapered... steadily reducing in intensity. I have discussed this with him and he says his past relationships were similar... and though he has theories, he admits he's really not sure why this is.
I fear the answer to this will probably be simple and I'll be wondering why I haven't thought of it... but I'll ask anyway. Why do I feel my attraction for him growing stronger as time progresses... whereas in past relationships all the attraction was immediate and slowly dwindled over time?
"The weakest soul, knowing its own weakness, and believing this truth that strength can only be developed by effort and practice, will, thus believing, at once begin to exert itself, and, adding effort to effort, patience to patience, and strength to strength, will never cease to develop, and will at last grow divinely strong."
