Physical Attraction is not Love

What is love? Here is what God says it is:

1 Corinthians 13:4
"Love is patient, love is kind, love is not envious, it is not boastful, it is not puffed up."

...
Don't see anything physical or fleshly here, the attitude comes first and takes priority over physical attraction. Physical attraction is not a measure of love, someone can be deeply affected by physical beauty without any love at all associated with it.

True love, God's way, is associated with the overall well being of the person who is loved.

1 Corinthians 13:1
"If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal."
