As an older person I would say good for you!
What is most important is that you like and respect the other person. Also, that you enjoy being together.
It's often the case that intense physical attraction fades when you aren't really into the personality of the one you are with.
Having said all this I can recall twice in my past where I was with people I wasn't too physically attracted to...and over time I became bored. One person just had a boring personality. The other person...although I loved him and found him wildly talented and a truly inwardly beautiful person...I thought he deserved someone who was also very attracted to him physically. He later found someone like that so it was a good ending. Truth be told I was sad it didn't work out between us...he was quite a catch...but in the end you can't push the river, so to speak.
