So there is this girl that I've been talking to for a couple months now, and we just had a big serious talk today that has left me very very sad.
We where in this "relationship" type thing for about 3 weeks, where we where not official but we kissed, cuddled, all that, but no sex and it wasn't an official relationship. She said for her, it was her seeing if I was right for her or not.
She basically told me that im an amazing guy, and literally the only problem and the only reason she doesn't want a relationship with me is because she doesn't feel sexually connected with me. she said that she didnt feel anything from the first kiss, but thought maybe the more we did it, that her feelings would change, but they didn't at all change. she didnt feel anything.
This upsets me to no end, knowing that she views me as perfect in every sense other than her not being sexually connected to me. I feel so helpless. What can I do, if anything?
note: I was very very nervous with her alot and felt slightly uncomfortable around her, maybe that showed through with my emotions and when i was kissing her?
I just don't know what to do, i've said all of this to her and she said she doesn't want to try it again and put me through all the emotion only for her to find out the same thing. I dont know what to do but all I want is her.
What can I do, if anything?

There is nothing you can do. Either you are sexually attracted to someone and feel chemistry with them or you don't. She just does not feel that with you. I know it sucks, but it's not something you are doing "wrong." She thinks you're a great guy; she just doesn't feel any sexual chemistry with you. I've been in her situation before. I've gone on dates with people who are great, but the chemistry just isn't there. There is nothing the other person can do. Chemistry is just somethig that happens... or it doesn't. Unfortunately, you just have to move on and find someone you DO have sexual chemistry with.
Thanks for this!

Yeah, Im realizing that.. I was just hoping maybe there was something I could do, like impress her with something, you know, something of that nature, something to make her find me sexy, something. its hard to just give up this huge thing ive had with her for so long, over literally her one and only problem... of not having sexual chemistry with me

It's either there or it's not. I am sorry it happened but at least you found out soon and now can look for the right person.

scorpiosis is right.....sexual attraction either is or it isn't there & if she's looking for someone that she wants that connection with & not just someone to enjoy going out with.....then she is just telling you what her feelings are......I've also been in her place....& I also ended up married in that situation & it was miserable because I didn't listen to my gut feeling....though that came from some things he did that caused me to loose respect for him & thus turned me off on how I felt toward him but at that young age, I wasn't aware of what really was going on though I knew something because I talked to my mom about calling off the wedding but got talked back into it.....HUGE MISTAKE.

It's better to be honest up front like she is being. All you can really do is move on....& look for someone who you both have the connection with together. I'm sure there are girls that you have no attraction to & you wouldn't want to date them even though they might flirt with you.....it's a chemistry thing & there is nothing that you can do to change it......be thankful that she didn't lead you on longer before letting you know that she didn't feel an attraction to you. There were some guys I knew up front & didn't even have to give it a try first

It sucks, yeah. But sexual attraction is often separate from emotional/personality bonds. It's what helps define the difference between friendship and not.

It really does suck that she isn't feeling any connection with you sexually. I can only imagine the feeling of pain that must be causing.

Some relationships can work without the level of sexual chemistry that she may be wanting - everyone is different in what they will/won't/can/can't handle/accept.

There's not much at all you can do about it - and thankfully she's telling you before getting into a full relationship with you. Look at how much pain you are already in? You'll be in a lot more pain if she was to continue the relationship knowing that she doesn't feel that connection to you.

Sounds like she doesn't deserve you. Maybe she has something else on her plate that she is failing to mention. Maybe it's not you at all. She could be trying you out and 2o others. There are other fish in the sea snd maybe she isn't the one for you. You deserve better! She said she isn't Sexually Connected with me?

You could try distancing yourself from her and work on having a good life. she may miss you. But there is no guarantee at all

Whatever you do don't be clingy desperate....

Thank you everyone
I think im just going to try and play it off as im completely done with her, in a relationship wanting sorta sense, and see if maybe its because of how forwards im acting towards her, maybe that's throwing her off. maybe she likes the more, hard to get guys.
But you guys are right. Im glad it didnt go into a full relationship, i would have just been alot more sad to find this out later rather than sooner.
Thanks everyone
