Real Housewives of Atlanta star, Cynthia Bailey, has been very honest about the struggles within her marriage to husband Peter Thomas. During Sunday’s season premiere, Cynthia was questioned by her sister Malorie about her marriage.
“Are you still in love with him,” Malorie asks. “Yes, I am in love with him still,” Bailey responds.
“But are you attracted to Peter,” Malorie continues. “Yeah, I am attracted to him,” Bailey says.
But when Malorie asks, “Even with his clothes off?” Baily simply responds with “No.”
Cynthia also admits, the couple have a lot of issues that they are dealing with, especially their communication. Distance is also becoming a factor now that Peter is in Charlotte more. Since the premiere Bravo caught up with Cynthia to confirm if she still is not attracted her husband intimately.
When my sister Malorie asked me if I was still attracted to Peter with his clothes off, she was referring to him physically, not sexually. My honest answer was no. For me, physical attraction and sexual attraction are two different subjects, and one has nothing to do with the other.
At the time of Malorie’s visit, the video had just come out, we were dealing with the stress of other martial issues, and Peter had packed on some unwanted pounds. Is it possible to be sexually attracted to someone and not be physically attracted to them?
Physical attraction is important in any marriage or relationship, but it is only one of many factors that will keep a healthy relationship together. I think men hold women to a much higher standard when it comes to physical attraction. Most women love from more of an emotional and spiritual connection that usually goes beyond the physical. This is an issue that a lot of women can relate to but are not comfortable talking about out loud.
Was this the right thing to admit out loud? Some things just shouldn’t be shared with the public.
