Abstract

Humans are keenly aware of attraction and its emotional, cognitive, and visceral effects-and for good reason. The formation of personal relationships is often dependent on the existence of some form of attraction. Without attraction to motivate initial interaction, many potentially fulfilling relationships might simply be foregone. It was a strong sense of attraction that led David and Tina to want to meet; without that motivating force, they may never have made the effort to connect. An understanding of what attraction is, why it is so powerful, and what leads to it, therefore, is essential in understanding how humans relate to one another.
