It seems to make sense to say that a relationship based solely on physical attraction can't last the course. Because when the sex becomes routine, what will you say to each other? Inversely, it makes sense to say that a relationship that starts out with no physical attraction can develop and eventually a physical attraction will come. Though that is not always the case...sometimes you just love talking to someone but you don't want to be in bed with them. Why that happens is anybody's guess.
Simply put, if I was loving a guy's conversation and felt really strongly connected to him emotionally and intellectually, I'd definitely want to lie next to him naked, even if initially I didn't feel a strong physical bond.
I think that many relationships start out that way, though I'll say that it's nice when you feel a bit of both. You like the walk and you like the talk. I'm speaking in clichés today :P
The more time you spend with someone whose company you love, the more you want to be as close to them as possible, both mentally, and physically. It can't get any closer right?

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
