In general, an attraction draws one object towards another one. In physics, attraction may refer to gravity or to the electromagnetic force.

Physical attractiveness is the perception of the physical traits of an individual human person as pleasing or beautiful. It can include various implications, such as sexual attractiveness, cuteness, and physique. Judgment of attractiveness of physical traits is partly universal to all human cultures, partly dependent on culture or society or time period, partly biological, and partly a matter of individual subjective preference.

The rules of attraction might drive our initial decisions, for better or worse. But lasting relationships are about much more than what we see and smell.

Behavior plays a key role, with biology an intriguing contributing factor.

When it comes to sticking together for the long haul, researchers have shown that likeness of personality, which can take more time to realize, means more.

Comedy can also help a relationship. But the importance of humor is different for men and women. A woman is attracted to a man who makes her laugh. A man likes a woman who laughs at his jokes.

Somewhere amid attraction and sex, we all hope, are strong feelings of love. But which of all the motivations really drives us?

The rules of attraction make up a pretty long list. No scientist knows the order of the list. But near the top is perhaps one of the toughest characteristics to gauge in advance in the search for the perfect partner.

So, sometimes we may fall for a person just because we are attracted to them especially towards their physical appearances. Thus, it’s sometimes unlikely to know if we really are in love with the person or do we just love the idea of being with that person.
