Shallow
This might simply be my own paranoia or what have you, but every so often I think I'm actually a shallow person. The reason I bring this up is because I've started dating someone whom is stimulating to me in every way except physically. That is, I think she has an excellent personality, a great career, a well-developed set of morals, funny, and above all, genuinely interested in me as a person. BUT, I don't find her attractive and I believe that I need to _also_ be physically attracted to her to make the relationship really work. This isn't the first woman that I've thought this about, either. Sometimes I think I should simply stow those feelings away and let the relationship go where it may, however I also think I should just let her know about it as I don't want either of us to get too involved and have this get in the way.
I mean, how do you tell someone, "Sorry, I just don't find you attractive. Let's just stay friends"?
I'd appreciate any and all comments.
