Priorities - connection or sex?

Met someone on a normal dating site. She’s close to an ideal partner. Intelligent, thoughtful, kind, generous, a lovely person, has a great body (I mean very close to my idea of perfect) and the sex is amazing. I’m pretty sure I’d never find a woman with such an awesome body.

But there isn’t really much of a connection. And while she’s talking about settling down, I’m happy just seeing her at weekends.

I’m really torn about what to do.

Lose the best sex ever in the hope of finding someone who is less of a physical match but who we have a proper telepathically close connection? Or plod on not having a laugh?

No brainer - connection .

It’s all fickle without it. If it’s a relationship there’s no point unless you laugh. The best sex comes from connection too so it’s not the best sex you’ll ever have.

Connection all the way. Sex is meaningless and with out purpose without the connection. Mentally and intellectually. Heightens the senses in my view. A concept lost on most off here.

It’s only the best sex you’ve had so far, not that you will ever have.

If you’re after some short term fun she sounds ideal (as long as that’s what she wants and it sounds lime maybe not).

If you want a long term relationship, look elsewhere or see if this can develop

Do the decent thing and end it now. You're only contemplating this because she's physically attractive. If she has feelings for you, she will be more hurt when it eventually does end.

Deffo. Its early enough to avoid hurting each other and those around you. Family and friends as it's harder the longer you leave it. Plus im sure shes adult enough to know the situation. Its about communication. Talk to her. Tell her how you feel. Sex isnt the only thing you're going to find cementing a relationship. It's so much more. If something is missing then it's not right for you or her.

If you're actually looking for a relationship, then there needs to be a connection.

Great sex, is great. But what happens when you're not in bed?

Talk to her

She might be thinking that you're not her perfect match either but you tick 7 out of 10 boxes and she's happy to work with that.

Thanks for the replies. I kind of guessed that the bulk of the advice would be to move on.

Has been a strange experience. She was so conservative in her profile but she loves sex, and when I first undressed her, I couldn’t believe my luck.

I’m going to talk to her I think. See where it goes.

There has to be connection / chemistry. Surely?

You can't make a life with someone you have no connection with no matter how great the sex. You would quickly get bored. Time to move on.

Has to be a connection. There are likely to be some compromises in any relationship, but I see the connection as being the foundations.

It has to be a connection everytime. Without that sex is dull. Sex can come and go but that spark/connection can last a lifetime.

I’m in a similar position OP. Been dating a girl from POF for seven months and now on the verge of moving in together. Great sex and a real connection, we get on well. But, a nagging doubt, am I doing the right thing? I guess it’s the usual nerves around such a change.

You should be thinking about her. Would she want to be in a long-term relationship with somebody who doesn't really love her and is only with her because she's a good lay? This isn't all about you.

Long term you need a connection because there will be times when one or the other of you doesn't want or isn't able to have sex.

But as a short term fwb thing I can't see a problem as long as you both know where you stand with it.

The right place

I need a level of connection or I’m not interested in sex. But ultimately I’m here to have sex with a few people I connect with.

I have had the compleate opposite great connection got on incredibly and a hot body but the sex was crap she just wasn't interested once a fortnight was too much and it was Boring sex as well. I think you need a balance somewhere in the middle.

great sex comes with a great connection, becoming emotionally involved makes the sex even better, it all sounds very one sided to me, like others have said let her go, you have to be fair!

Connection. Whether you want passionate sex or a good hard fuck there should be a match of the minds first.

Connection every time. You could have sex with anyone as a physical act but a good connection doesn’t come along every day.
