Share on Pinterest Westend61/Getty Images Pop culture teems with so-called “love songs” that more likely express attachment than love. You can throw a dart and hit questionable lyrics. Are the fervent feelings an outpouring of loving sentiment or a cry of codependency? Hard to tell. If you’re feeling chronically anxious in your relationship, understanding the difference between mutual love, healthy attachments, and unhelpful attachments might be the first step in growing toward something lasting, together. Difference between love and attachment How you feel and act in the relationship is probably the best indicator of whether the strong emotions you feel are love or attachment. Love evokes fond feelings and actions toward the other person, particularly. Attachment is driven by how you feel about yourself with the degree of permanence and safety someone gives you, based on your past relationships. In other words, with love, your person is “the one” you have feelings for. With attachment, your significant other could be replaceable, it’s how they satisfy your needs that gives them your attention.

If you want to start enjoying a wider circle of admirers, there are three key personality traits to work on, say experts. A positive attitude, a balanced extroversion and confidence have been revealed as the most attractive qualities, in both sexes. Psychologists say these three personality qualities not only make someone more attractive to the opposite sex but also prove they can get on with anyone. Possessing these traits will help you win people over professionally, romantically and platonically. The good news is that, to a large degree, these qualities can be self-taught too. Learn to be more positive and you’re well on your way to a happier and longer life, say studies. Optimistic people are also more professionally successful, mentally and physically healthy, and socially attractive. Similarly, people who are always kind are also perceived as being more attractive. Striking a good balance of extroversion will also help you to appear better socially, happier and more willing to explore opportunities. Psychologist Adrian Furnham, Ph.D., for Psychology Today, found that extroverts are more likely to have better “mating success”. Being confident was voted as the most attractive personality trait because, say psychologists, it puts others at ease in your company and also helps elevate your social status. In fact, both men and women rate confidence as a very attractive personality trait in a potential partner, according to a study out of Arizona State University.
