You place a higher value on emotional intimacy

For you, one of the most important things for you when dating is creating emotional intimacy. It doesn’t really matter how “hot” or sexy the person is, that doesn’t stimulate you. There is no telling how long it will take to establish that emotional bond you seek. Don’t be surprised. It can sometimes take many years!

Even after the deep connection is created, you don’t stop there. You make it a priority to continue strengthening the bond. If you lose the connection, you may stop feeling sexually attracted to your partner.

This approach to sexuality makes others think your standard for finding a romantic partner is quite high. It also makes it difficult for you to find the right partner since they can easily have casual sex with other people instead of having to wait for emotions to develop first.
