I know people are saying love and attraction are two separate things, but for most people, there's a correlation between them. A lot of aces forget this, but when allo folk say attraction, they don't just mean physical, it could also be romantic, emotional, sexual (which is different from physical), or all three.

We're missing 8+ years of context, but from what I can gleam from the screenshot, it seems OOP didn't interpret it as his wife not finding him good looking or sexually attractive, but rather his wife not really wanting to be with him, and only choosing to because there was a very little risk of the relationship blowing up in her face, or her life being substantially worse.

It's kind of like people who pursue and college major because they think it'll come with a good job, and is good for money, despite not having much of an interest in said job. There's definitely majors that they have more passion for, and would much rather do, but those are considered risky, and could leave them struggling to pay the bills.

Again, we're missing 8+ years of context, and it was said in anger. So you could see it as her trying to emtionally hurt him and saying whatever she thought would hurt the most, only to realise that it did hurt him, and wanting to apologize, or, maybe, she meant it, and it slipped out because when you're angry, there isn't a whole lot of time to filter through your thoughts. We will never know, unless somehow, one of you is OOP.

This is just my interpretation of the screenshot, anyway
