Sexual attraction: What's the difference between romantic attraction and sexual attraction?

Romantic attraction is like "I want to hold hands with and go on dates with" and sexual attraction is more like "I want to sleep with"

If you are sexualy attracted to someone you want / can imagine to perfom the act of sex with this person. This feeling is often mistaken to be just based on the physical appearence.. but also a personality can make you feel like having sex with a person. Romantic attraction is basically all whats left.. like feeling the urge to kiss someone ... wanting to be near someone.. an so on... its about performing all aspects of a romantic-relationship only the sexual interaction is distinguished ... these attraction can be absolutely seperate from each other... you can be sexualy atracted to someone without wanting to be in a relationship with this person and the other way round

sexual is when you want to have sex with someone and romantic is when you want to be with someone but not for sex

If you're romantically attracted to someone, you just want to be with them all the time. If you're sexually attracted to someone (often connected to being romantically attracted), you simply want to have sex with them.

romantic you actually love the person and care about them, sexual you just want to do things with them such as having sex you really dont care or love the person as much as you would if you was romatically attracted

If you feel romanticly attracted to someone, you actually like them for their whole package. how they look, their personality etc. you would actually want to start a serious relationship with them. sexual attraction is more like being attracted to the outside, and has to do with lust.

Romantic attraction is focused around intimacy and companionship: think evenings on the couch curled up watching movies, coffee dates or even marriage. Sexual attraction is attraction to and arousal for a person physically: wanting to jump their bones, or similar. They can overlap sometimes, but they can also be independent of each other. Everyone is different.

Romantic attraction is the desire to have a romantic relationship with another but sexual attraction is the desire to have a physical or sexual relationship with another, for example if I only had a sexual attraction to the opposite sex but a romantic attraction to the same sex I would be heterosexual and homoromantic

The most simplistic way to explain it is that sexual attraction is just that: a natural desire to have sex with a specific person, it can be an immediate desire upon seeing them or a more gradual one that develops over time, but in the end the base desire is for sex with that person. Romantic attraction is a desire for whatever you perceive is a romantic relationship with a specific person, can also be immediate or more gradual.

Sexual attraction is when you're sexually attracted to someone or a gender/s while romantic attraction is when you're romantically attracted to someone or a gender/s
