Many people mislabel attraction as purely romantic. But many feelings qualify as attraction, from taking an interest in someone to admiring someone’s appearance to experiencing sexual feelings. Attraction is a key part of how you connect to other people and build your support network, whatever form it takes. Why does it matter? Attraction can take many forms and it’s possible to experience more than one type simultaneously. Learning about the nuanced and multifaceted nature of attraction helps us gain insight into our own feelings, as well as the boundaries we need to set to ensure those feelings are respected and understood. Check out the following breakdown of the different types of attraction. We also explain different terms that show the subtle differences between varying types of attraction.

Read More »Sexual attraction Share on Pinterest Illustration by Yaja’ Mulcare This attraction takes the form of the desire for intimately physical or sexual contact with someone. Lust This describes intense feelings of passion, desire, affection, or attraction toward someone. Objective sexual This type of attraction occurs when the majority of people consider someone sexually attractive, even if you personally don’t experience sexual attraction toward them. Subjective sexual This describes sexual feelings or the desire for sexual contact based on personal feelings and individual experiences that aren’t necessarily shared by the majority. Subjective sexual attraction is often viewed as sexual chemistry that exists in a given relationship, connection, or interaction. Physical attraction Share on Pinterest Illustration by Yaja’ Mulcare This describes the desire for touch or to receive touch — not necessarily in a romantic or sexual way. For example, this can include hugging or kissing a family member or petting a dog. Intimacy This term describes physical, sexual, romantic, or emotional closeness between people in personal relationships of any kind. Objective physical This type of attraction occurs when the majority of people consider someone physically attractive, even if you personally don’t feel attraction around their physical appearance. Subjective physical This type of physical desire or admiration involves personal feelings and individual experiences that aren’t the most people don’t necessarily share. Subjective physical attraction is often observable as physical chemistry that exists in a given relationship, connection, or interaction. Sensual Very similar to physical attraction, sensual attraction describes a desire to touch or receive touch that isn’t necessarily sexual in nature.

You might find that elements of aesthetic attraction cross over into other types.
