Yes. It can be normal.
And it can also be a pattern that keeps you hungry but never fed.
Some people lose attraction when someone is too available because availability feels like pressure. It feels like expectation. It feels like you are being watched. It feels like you will have to perform.
Some lose attraction because they confuse uncertainty with chemistry. They learned to want what is just out of reach. Distance kept the fantasy alive. The chase felt electric. When the person becomes steady and present, the nervous system reads it as unfamiliar, and unfamiliar can feel like boredom.
Some lose attraction because they do not trust ease. If love came with conditions growing up, steady affection can feel suspicious. You start waiting for the switch. You start scanning for the catch. Attraction becomes tied to tension.
And sometimes the truth is simpler.
Sometimes you lose attraction because the person is not actually your type, and their availability just makes it obvious. You cannot hide behind mystery anymore.
So yes, it can be normal.
But it is worth asking one brutal question:
Do I lose attraction because they are available, or because they are needy.
Availability is healthy.
Neediness is pressure.
A steady person can be present without trying to consume you. A needy person makes you responsible for their emotional stability. That can kill attraction fast.
If you only feel desire when you are chasing, you are not broken. You may just be trained.
The good news is that patterns can change when you start wanting something that holds up more than it spikes.
Because the attraction that lasts is usually not built on scarcity.
It is built on respect, tension you can trust, and someone whose presence does not cost you yourself.
