Not demeaning at all. Why would it be demeaning to be attracted to someone?
It can be frustrating and sad when they don't return the attraction, and that's when you really wish you weren't attracted to them. But, there's just not turning it "off". There is only diverting your attention elsewhere. Heartbreak is a painful thing, but I don't think there's any "medication" or "treatment" for it. You can't just turn your feelings off.
Somehow I doubt that medication could make me NOT attracted to my BF anymore. Or could have made me attracted to other people that I DONT find attractive at all. Unless it's a hallucinogen or something. Or I was brainwashed.
I don't think there's any amount of medication in the world that could make me NOT find Angelina Jolie or Colin Farrel attractive.
Likewise, I don't think there's any medication in the world that could make me find say... George Bush attractive. Or, Roseanne Barr.
