I would, and have before. They were great while they lasted. Being in that kind of relationship can be really frustrating for the other person though, but if you find that you love them then you really love them and not just the sex.

Well, to me it take a while for me to attracted to a guy. I mean personality count big time for me to change my view of someone. I had seen good looking guys, but after a while when I figure out the type of person they lose my attention quick.

This thread reminded me of Sterberg's Triangular Theory of love:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_theory_of_love
I think it's an interesting concept, although it may not explain all the aspects of what love is.
Nonlove is the absence of all three of Sternberg's components of love.
...No shit? D: *thinks*

You should try and work thing out hell and if that doesnt work try thinking your having sex with someone else haha sorry it just seems you need a laugh to loosen you up.

I think this is one of my worst fears...I have had a boyfriend I wasn't sexually attacted to, that ended REALLY bad..I mean, love is all well and good, but I really love the feeling of wanting to jump each other in the middle of public (but obviously not being able to) It' makes things more fun.

meh it seems really shallow a girl would reject a guy if he isn't the best looking .... at the same time I would never want to even remotely get close to someone overweight. I don't have some rediculos standards but I feel if I'm not fat than you shouldn't be either. something like the OP said I could work with fine but I'd never be attracted to anyone overweight.

Sounds like a waste of time in my opinion.
It just sounds like dating a friend who you're not all that close to.
Sure you'll hang with them, but you won't be all over them like they may want you to be.
Just doesn't seem fair.

If a friend asked me to for a double date or something, but I could probably find some redeeming qualities as long as they are at least average in looks.

Would you consider dating someone you weren't sexual attracted towards?
Nope. Sex isn't everything, but it is a part of the relationship.
And I know that we say when one is in love, lust comes on the package but do you consider that to really be true?
Personally, it's not likely for me to fall in love with someone I am not sexually attracted to as well. A lot of people would think that being sexually attractive is just about the looks, but I don't agree with that. I think it has more to do with confidence and charm. Also, constantly being depressed is a big turn off.
Would you try to create passion in the relationship or simply accept what is?
If I loved the guy, of course I'd try to create passion. It's all very nice and sweet to think that everything comes naturally with love, but it just isn't like that. Relationships need to be worked on by both parties.

In my opinion, you have be to attracted to your partner, at least for the first 10-20 years. When you start getting into your 40s, shits gonna get saggy and less attractive.
I've been there and it's not fun. You want so badly to be attracted to them because everything would be easy. I found out, at least for myself, that if I love them, but am not physically attracted to them, then they are my friend. I have to have both and I believe it's healthier that way.

Sadly (and I say this only because I *wish* I could be better than I am), I don't think there is any way I could do this.. I am simply too superficial. But to be fair, I tend to blame it on the artist within me, I appreciate beauty! In all things really... lol

it all depends.. the situation i'm in now i would have to say no.. the girl is basically in love with me and i really like her as a friend and stuff but she's a little overweight and i'm just not completly PHYSICALLY attracted to her.. now the big problem is that she's a virgin so i would feel bad about taking her virginity if i know that another more attractive girl wants me.. and sex is an important part of a relationship thats not being shallow thats just a fact

I wouldn't give it a thought.
When I get into a relationship, I want it to last. And if I'm not attracted to the girl, then the relationship won't last. Additionally, I probably wouldn't see her as a potential mate in the first place, which would instantly put her in the "possible friend" category.
