Or, do you ever find yourself amazed by the way you feel soulfully connected to your partner?
Interestingly, these five types of attraction can co-occurorarise on an individual basis.
Romantic attraction can be long term or short term in nature and can also be exclusive or nonexclusive.
When a platonic relationship exists, romantic attraction can sometimes build up in one or both partners.
Physical attraction is a natural, instinctive drive in humans.
Without a desire to be touched and cared for, our species would not survive.
Others, however, have a much lower need and tolerance for physical connection.
Emotional attraction is the essence of healthy long-term relationships.
When we feelemotionally connectedto another person, we are able to bond in intimate, highly connective ways.
Emotional attraction can occur in platonic, romantic, and sexual relationships.
In my opinion, emotional attraction is the foundation for healthy platonic relationshipsandromantic partnerships.
As well, platonic relationships are often far less based on aesthetic attraction than either sexual or romantic relationships.
