Have you ever had strong sexual chemistry with someone and no physical attraction?

Yes, it has happened with me!

I have experienced it. I chalked it up to pheremones

No. I’m more the strong physical attraction but no mental attraction. You know, like a Hamster, really cute on the outside but has the IQ of a Walnut. lol

Sounds like Einstein and his first wife. He was interested in her mind. Not her body. Never stopped him from getting her pregnant 3 times. Mileva Marić is her name. I learned it from Genius on NatGeo.

@RedDeerGuy1 So it was just a mind fuck? lol

@Coloma Lol. Yes.

No. Those have always seemed to go together for me.

I don’t know what sexual chemistry would look like if it didn’t include physical attraction.

I’m confused by the question. I’m going to assume you’re asking if someone to whom I was not attracted sexually turned out to be great in bed. And the answer is yes.

Do you mean a person turns you on, but you can’t understand why because you don’t think they are very good looking?

I think that’s entirely possible. Some men (and I’m sure women too) are highly charismatic. If you look at them in the cold, hard, light, they aren’t handsome or pretty, but there is something about them that just gets you hot and bothered. Equally, there are gorgeous looking people that leave you totally cold.

I used to know this guy. He was without doubt, an ugly looking guy (think Lyle Lovett) and yet, he always had a gorgeous, and I do mean stunningly beautiful, woman on his arm. When you met him and he talked to you he was so confident, so sure of himself (without appearing cocky) and he made you feel beautiful and seen. I can quite see why women fell for him. He was my brother’s friend and I think that gave me a natural defense against his charms and no doubt he kept himself in check around me, but I certainly remember him making me feel very special and beautiful when he talked to me. He just had a way.

I’m confused by your wording. Seems like “physical attraction” would means desire to be physical with them. So when you write “physical attraction” do you mean finding them visually attractive?

If so, then yes, definitely. In fact, I’ve noticed that when I’m attracted to an actual person, even someone I’ve only barely met, my awareness of their visual appearance, especially in the way I might assess the attractiveness of a picture, practically disappears. Often when I’m very into someone, I don’t relate to the details of their physical aspect objectively at all, and have sometimes been surprised to notice it later.

I’ve been thinking about this because my immediate reaction was no, of course not.
Here’s an alternative view however, one of my mates is gay, highly camp & loads of fun.
I’m straight & in no way attracted to him or any man but we “flirt” like crazy, i’ve always had this campy side to my nature, part of my out there sense of humour I guess & it’s something we both entirely understand is purely friendly banter, both totally comfortable with that.
So yeah, maybe that qualifies, I guess it does when you think about it.

No. I’ve been sexually attracted on sight, but if I start talking to him and find no brains that fizzles along with any physical attractiveness I thought he had.
