Read More »Oh, if only dating were easier. If only we knew, before choosing a location to meet, picking out an outfit, and pumping ourselves up for the occasion, whether it would all be worth it. Would she find my joke funny? Maybe. Is there a chance he'll be interested in my favorite hobby? Only time will tell. The unknowns abound in meeting someone new, so understanding the psychology of attraction can help up your dating game. Researchers have long worked to understand the scientific aspects behind the elusive spark and discovered that there is more than one typology. What Is the Attraction? Attraction is the power of eliciting feelings of desire, interest, or liking. The psychology of attraction refers to the study of the reasons why we're attracted to certain people over others. Attraction, as it turns out, is not a singular model. While there are countless variations and potencies, seven stand out as the major types of attraction "I tend to define attraction as forces which pull people together," explains social psychology expert Madeleine A. Fugère, Ph.D. "These forces can be things like liking, sexual desire, similarity, or even just physical proximity." Sexual attraction, for example, is dictated by the desire to engage in intimate acts with a person and can be influenced by physical cues alone. Romantic attraction is deeper, spurred by feelings of wanting a relationship with someone. The two appear together in what is commonly considered "attraction." Friendship attraction is platonically just that, a desire to engage in a nonromantic companionate relationship. "We can be attracted to individuals because they are good listeners or interesting to talk to or funny but not be sexually attracted to those people," adds Fugère. Physical or sensual attraction : guided by the desire for physical proximity and emotional (nonsexual) touch like a hug or affectionate cuddle. : guided by the desire for physical proximity and emotional (nonsexual) touch like a hug or affectionate cuddle.

Emotional attraction: stems from feelings of connection, attachment, and vulnerability with someone. All of these forms of attraction can be quite fluid and aren't always exclusive of one another but can also exist separately within their own silos. With so many variations, the psychology of attraction is quite an, well, attractive discipline. And while it's often not conclusive work, you want all the clues you can get when you're going out on a limb to meet a stranger.
