infatuation. Eventually this will become burdensome for them, and they’ll
crumble. The lack of desire and attraction will lead to a lack of effort.
If you need further proof, look at those who are married.
Attraction has become this taboo topic that doesn’t get discussed. It’s not
talked about the way it should and we love to mask its necessity. We believe,
if we love the person, then it shouldn’t matter. However, when you pay
attention to married couples and notice the “flame” fizzing out, or the lack of
effort and desire, I guarantee in many cases, you’ll find the attraction has
dwindled. The drop in attraction could be due to many reasons such as
physical changes, lack of trust, or betrayal; however, something occurred
which impacted the ability for that person to remain attracted to their partner.
One way or another, it’s not the same. There’s a direct correlation between a
lack of attraction and lack of effort.
Plain and simple.
#2 – Lack of Affection
I’ve witnessed couples where the woman barely wants to be touched by
the man. She’ll try to mask it with phrases such as: I’m just not an
affectionate person or I’m not in the mood when the real truth is that the
attraction to her partner isn’t strong enough, and she doesn’t want him
touching her like that. Bring the right man along and it’s a completely
different story. Their affection towards their children, friends, and other
people is evident, but not with their own man. Sure, there are other issues that
lead to lack of affection, but what I’m telling you here, in this chapter, is that
a lack of attraction will impact and create a lack of affection.
Don’t even think about fighting me on this one and NO, you CANNOT
get passed it!
If you aren’t giving your partner affection, they will not feel desired in the
relationship; and if they feel undesired it’s going to cause problems. It will
affect their ability to compromise. It will affect how they feel, as well as
create negative energy. I know you don’t want to hear (or believe) this, but
yes, it can also open the door to infidelity. When a person isn’t feeling desired
at home, I guarantee, someone’s going to come along and give them what
they need outside the house. It’s a natural gravitation because as people, we
like to feel desired. Affection is simply an extension and expression of that
desire; so when it’s removed, it leaves a void to be filled.
#3 – Lack of Respect
This goes back to what I mentioned prior about a man not being “cute
enough” for you to work this hard. When there’s not enough attraction, it is
very easy for a lack of respect to show up; and if you pay attention to most
couples, you’ll see it more often than not. The obvious is that a lack of respect
will destroy a relationship.
