Within popular culture, we use the word "chemistry" to refer to any kind of compatibility. It's an idea of people "clicking", they may not be perfect for everybody, but they're perfect for each other.
I have some trivial insight on this.
It concerns the clinical psychology / professor that I went out with 2 weeks ago. She's attractive (to me), but I would not consider her the hottest person that I've been out with or kissed. Our ~90 minute date was ok, the conversation was ok, it might have only been 60 minutes which is a bad sign. We did talk, there were no awkward silences, she was engaged but ... but it felt like she was a mile away rather than 1 foot away. There was no conversational chemistry, perhaps there would be with time but it didn't seem like it. That's fine, whatever. I didn't have any antagonism to her, just indifference, unfortunately. If I had seen her again at that point, it would have been out of curiosity, just in case I had been wrong which of course can happen.
I kissed her at the end of the date and ... wow. Holy f***. Simply electric. I had never felt such tingle from lips in my life, I don't think, maybe from my ex-girlfriend ten years ago, but I was in love with her. I had a hard boner in like five seconds, literally. She was engaged as well. I opened my eyes a little bit, and she had a deep and profound smile, a naughty smile, her kisses were kind of like pulses, she'd lay back, then get on her toes and kiss again with enthusiasm.
tldr; physical and romantic chemistry are separate things and should be described by separate words.
I had this with a girl I met off match. She was pretty. Definitely not the hottest girl ever but, she was sweet, nice accent, worked out but was feminine. Touch of baby fat in the right place. Mitten full of noobs, phat ***, and was a delight.
We talked over coffee (I wouldn't have minded dinner). We were together for hours. I remember she was 'nervous about meeting' in case I didn't like her. She was young but not too young. I remember she tried to dismiss my teasing that I must of been nervous too. Of course I was not.
It was electric. For reasons I cannot fathom, it fizzled out. I wouldn't mind running into her again. Knowing my luck, she would be likely in a LTR, married or worse, a single mom which I avoid like a plague.
Keep it going bro. You are a wizard.
