★★PRINCE CHARMING™★★ said...

I agree only to a certain degree, there is a strong connection with some certain people just at first sight, but a lot other times you get to get more attracted to someone as time passes, you can hear a lot of gals tell you that they didn't really feel too attracted to their partner when they met but as time passes they get to be more enamoured of them.

vicky sylva said...

Yes!!! Even @ a sight,one should tell if he or she is attracted 2 some1...attraction comes wiv admiration... Trust me wen its comes 2 topic like diz, am a love doctor *big smile*

Anonymous said...

Physical attraction, yes. However my attraction to some people increases on closer acquaintance because of their personality. Having said that I'm female, don't know if it works the same way for guys.

in a way, I agree that sometimes attraction is immediate But there has been some situation where I have developed attraction towards a guy over time, through talking and seeing each other regularly. However the 3 seconds rule applies sometimes but not all the time

I totally agree. The 1st time I see you is when I decide whether I can date you or not. If I'm not attracted to you the 1st time, nothing can change that. I'm shallow like that ;;)

pweetieangie said...

Its very possible,,hs happened to me b4 sef!

Yemmie Oscar said...

Linda, well....psychologists have found that people respond
intuitively to faces so rapidly that our reasoning
minds may not have time to influence the reaction.
It’s almost like an involuntary shiver.
We just can’t rationalize our decision, and so we
pretend to be very intellectual and blame it our
sharp instincts. These ‘instincts’ help us choose the
friends we would be most comfortable with, and
also helps us in choosing the right mate.
You’ve obviously known there was always
something more than just good looks that attracted
you to your sweetheart, didn’t you?

It is true, but attraction here isn't the 'want to be with you forever' kind oh! Like in 3 seconds you can decide you are attracted to a person and get to know them better. That's when dating begins, that you are attracted to a person don't mean y'all are gonna make a great couple. You could be attracted to a person and the instant they open their mouth, the attraction dies

I totally agree that one can be attracted to another within few minutes of meeting the person,however interaction will determine how long that attraction will last.

I do not agree. The attraction is called lust.

Sometimes. Other times, it takes a while to really notice someone. And even other times, the more you get to know someone, the more or less attractive they become.

Chiisunshine(carolips) said...

Yes I agree. And If indeed I don't feel him, that date will b the first n last. And later if he insist on seeing me again. Then I ve to tell him the truth. 'I don't like u' simple.

Sean Manuel said...

Absolutely not, I used to think attraction is not a concious choice. Its either she likes you or not. Foolish me. You can create attraction yourself.

Lasting attraction can be manufactured in this part of the world. Yep! Lets examine the 5 main traits of an alpha male – looks, wealth, status, fame, and game – and how each one is a choice you make:

Looks – ideas starts forming in her head, once she sees your arms, feels your strength, and touches your 6 pack. Manufactured by you. E.g "Linda always asking who among this guys would you hit?"

Wealth – sure you can call them gold diggers, but ultimately, She may ‘love’ you for your money, but does it really make a difference? Manufactured by you.

Status/Fame – (status is a subset of fame) no further explanation is required. Manufactured by you, either faked or bona fide.

Game – the attitude girls love. This is what they mean by ‘he gets me, he’s not a pushover, I like his style, he’s sweet, he’s exciting, etc’. Guess what – manufactured by you.

Although a lot of guys intuitively know this, there are still way too many who think ‘she should just like me for me in 3 sec’ and as a result take the easy path of inaction, later wondering why they can’t get any.

'Decide'? Nahhh Linda Attraction is not something you decide,its something we barely even have control over so maybe you should rephrase your question before i can answer it ;)

Furli said...

attraction is not a choice at all. it totally depends on the way the guy presents himself to the lady. if he does not act like a needy and approving wussbag,if his body language and tone speaks "in control and in charge", and he teases and dialogues properly, and interestingly, then its only a matter of minutes before she cannot explain why she is helplessly attracted to the dude...
