I married a guy I was super attracted to. Turns out, he was attracted to me as a person, but not sexually.

I can attest it DOES torpedo your self esteem, your health, and everything else eventually.

Fucking right? Like she’s sexually and physically attracted to her husband. The way she talked about him I thought he was going to look like the model she described him as because she’s is quite smitten. She deserves someone who sees her that way too.
