    It’s funny because any man stating “this is true” etc is just telling on themselves. If the physical attraction was there before marriage the only reason it would disappear after marriage is that one person is suddenly not “putting in the effort” any more.

    That effort doesn’t start with a bj.

        Look at the demographics of those who create, share and upvote memes from the man’s (this thread) and the woman’s point of view.

        Entirely possible - yes. Statistically likely - no.

      I’ve had GFs in the past lose their attraction to me because I cried in front of them one time. All kinds of shit can affect that. Not just laziness. It may not even be anyone’s fault at all.

          Maybe but overall I think I’d have been better off keeping it to myself and continuing to have sex regularly. I don’t need to cry that often and having someone else around when I do it has never really helped with whatever was going on.

        Not fully convinced you’re discussing marriage like the rest of us here tbh

          I’m discussing reasons people can lose attraction to each other. You don’t have to be married for that to happen.

            The thread talks about what happens after marriage. I suggest not marrying people you haven’t been vulnerable in front of.

              That was just an example I had personally experienced. As I said there could be any number of reasons. Mental health, work stress, illness, hormone changes, etc. Marriage status has nothing to do with it.
