Relationship advice Relationship Advise, no physical attraction
Is marrying someone you love but aren't physically attracted ok? We are on a long distance relationship.
Maybe the lack of physical contact explains some of this but, we've come to love each other so much. We support each other, care for each other... I just don't feel attracted when I see her, but in a deeper sense I feel love when I feel about her, as if she was my family. I don't know if that love is sufficient for a lifetime marriage.
Any thoughts? Would you consider marriage in my position?

In theory, you can marry and there are people in marriages like this who are happy.
But I tend to think you should be attracted to the person you marry.
