About This Quote

Have you ever known someone who wanted to be with you because they thought you were attractive? Then, you probably know what it’s like to only want someone when you are attracted to them. You want to be with them because you can do many things with them that you cannot do by yourself. A relationship is a two-way street. If a man wants a woman solely because she is beautiful and will sleep with him, he misses out on the benefits of a healthy relationship.
