Attractions - Sometimes Opposites do Attract sometimes they don’t

What attracted you to the relationship that you are currently in? There are many things that attract people. Physical attraction is the most popular form of attraction, but there are several other factors that bring people together in romantic ways. A beautiful body can come and go, but a beautiful heart and mind can make a lasting impression beyond the physical things.

Speaking of mind, intellectual attraction is very important for a relationship to work. Couples need to be attracted to each other’s minds. How a person thinks can be very sexy and attractive to another person. What a person says and how they say it, is so critical to there being attraction or not. A person could look like a model but if they are not intellectually stimulating or attractive to the other person, there is not much chance of a lasting relationship. Smart people with intellectual depth are sexy!

Emotional attraction is another form of attraction that is very important for a relationship to thrive. It is essential that a couple can relate and be attracted to each other’s feelings and emotions. Throughout life, there are so many emotional situations. It just makes everything easier if two people are emotionally on the same wavelength and can relate to each other’s feelings about things. Of course, no two people feel exactly the same way about the same things but emotional compatibility is so important.

Social compatibility is another way people can feel attracted. For instance do you and your partner socialize in much the same ways? When you go to a party, do you mingle as a couple or individually or not at all? Do you both have individual and mutual friends that you visit or spend time with on occasion? Do you both keep in touch with friends by email or phone? To be on common grounds in the socializing department makes relationships go much smoother. You or your partner may be either extraverted or introverted personalities in social situations. It would be helpful to know who is who so that your relationship can grow better.

Spiritual compatibility is another way in which people become attracted to each other. For instance two spiritual people could meet and fall totally in love if they share similar spiritual beliefs. With the spiritual bond, couples have a greater chance of their relationship working, as spirituality is such a powerful thing.

Finally, whatever it is that has attracted you to who you are with, acknowledge that thing or assortment of things. You can appreciate what you have more if you know what goes into it. The more understanding that a couple has of the nature of their attraction to each other, the better. Be sure you are going in the right direction for you heart and your mind, in addition to your body. Be true to all those things that matter most to you as you pursue your attraction to a person.

In other words “opposites do attract” and “sometimes opposites don’t”.
