Majority of you can get by for years (while you can still get it up) on sexual attraction whereas we women need all 3?
Emotional attraction apparently has to do with self esteem. Women tend to have less self esteem than men and therefore I’m thinking we women need this too.
I understand what you're saying eco, but I think it's a bit too bangled up and the meaning with the message got lost in your post somwhere.
First up, emotional attraction is not apparently to do with self esteem. Emotional attraction (how I see it) is based on emotional triggers. How does the other person "activate" you emotionally. You know how next to some people you feel like hitting them with a shovel. You don't know why you feel that way, but they just repulse you unexplainably. That's emotional repulsion. You know how next to some people you don't even need words, you see them and you just come alive. You feel on top of the world because they are there giving you energy. That's emotional attraction. So you're asking who gives of more or less of emotional attraction and energy men or women? I think that's entirely up to the individual.
Make whatever conclusion that you like out of this, just remember one fact you'll find a lot of guys will not pursue a sexual relationship with someone who emotionally repulses them.
Don't cry, don't regret and don't blame
Weak find the whip, willing find freedom
Towards the sun, carry your name
In warm hands you are given
Ask the wind for the way
Uncertainty's gone, your path will unravel
Accept all as it is and do not blame
God or the Devil
