Well said! I think physical attraction may not matter as long as you feel comfortable talking to someone and there are mutual interests that keep you both going in terms of conversation. However, if conversations are awkward and you get that ick – no matter how nice the person is, it can be hard to sustain the interest in growing a relationship.

Same here! I’ve also been struggling with thinking of breaking up with my boyfriend. We do have the chemistry, but he isn’t the “ideal” man that I always pictured myself ending up with. Reading this was so validating for me!

I appreciate it’s well written but is it not deceitful?

I live in a similar marriage where I’ve discovered latterly that my wife of 11 years has never been physically attracted to me. Intimacy which is the bedrock of any marriage is restricted to a peck on the cheek or lips, a hug now and then and handholding in public. In 11 years of marriage we’ve made love less than a dozen times and every time it feels as if she’s disconnected and in a rush to get somewhere else.

I’ve discovered at least one dalliance she’s undertaken in that time and I expect where’s there’s one there’s likely two or three more and who can blame her after all she misses the chemical sparks that comes from physical attraction.

Marry your best friend if you wish however make sure you’re both on the right page of the consequences of a relationship with those foundations before you say “I do”.

Yes. They blacklist people gor their own reasons. It’s not a consumer friendly store. Weird corporate atmosphere and treat employees like rags.

Same thing happened to me! Contacted customer services, no solution! Awful!!! They say they are using some third party software to detect risk, now they are just losing valuable customers due to the stupid software.

Comment on My Journey with Chronic Foot Pain by Daniel Riley

Hello there, I came across your article deep-diving trying to go down the rabbit hole to find answers for a case similar to yours. I too suffer from chronic pain and both my feet. The pain started four years ago when I was doing a thru-hike of the Appalachian trail. I woke up one morning and I could not bear any more weight on my feet contributed to an overuse injury from doing so many miles so quick hiking. Google, foot problems came up with plantar fasciitis came off the trail and went home. Went to a few different doctors all told me the same thing all the non invasive therapies for plantar fasciitis custom orthotics icing massage stretching night splints anti-inflammatories. None of these work. My pain level would fluctuate day today. More activity higher the pain. over the years I kind of got used to it but I think my symptoms started to evolve into something else different types of pain of pain. after seeing countless doctors and countless failed non-invasive therapies like yourself. I finally had a surgical procedure done called a gastroc recession. First I had it done on my left calf then I had it done on my right calf about three and a half months apart. They also did a heel fasciotomy with injections of amniotic fluid to help promote healing. the reason I had the second one done so soon when I wasn’t totally healed from the first one was I had a timeline to be back to work I only had six months off. so my doctor agrees he would do the second surgery if I was to be in a wheelchair post-op. Well that was in July and it is now December 2nd and I am still in the wheelchair. Since the surgery my pain threshold is now to the point where I cannot bear any weight. I’ve been back to doctors for more tests did physical therapy (made things worse) and now pain management Doctors. all who have their own opinion but none who have a confirm diagnosis on why the surgeries did what they did to me or why I am worse. One doctor the pain specialist said it was due to having tibial neuropathy. when she said he does not know if it was there prior to the surgery or the surgery made it worse. my podiatrist who did the surgery still doesn’t know why he says I’m the only case he’s ever had that ever got worse from the surgery. My insurance is now denying certain tests to be done because of medical necessity so that’s frustrating trying to get to the bottom of answers when I can’t get insurance to cover things. So as of right now I do not have an answer and I am in chronic pain everyday. I am now disabled where I’m in this wheelchair everyday my life is turned upside down 28 year old guy was a firefighter paramedic, now the sits in his room all day. Thank you for sharing your story I am trying to hold onto hope. I’m out here fighting for it. I’m sorry for any Grammer errors I use voice chat to type this.

I got banned from there also for something that was their fault. It is super frustrating.

That’s kinda how I feel now that I’m 39. My best friend was 13 years older and wanted to get married, but I didn’t even want to kiss him. It just sucks because now I don’t know if I will ever find anyone I get along with as well who I actually am attracted to. It seems like I am only attracted to those guys who are so good looking that their choices are endless…and of course I’m not one of them. I have yet to find anyone attractive who has been interested in me. I just want my best friend back, but he has needs I have no desire to fill outside of maybe trying for one kid. Sad…I know.
