Combined with what we find to be physically attractive, we can look at this as “holistic attraction”. You may meet someone who you’re not too excited about at first glance. Who knows, the visual level may totally break the deal without further investigation. Only when we take the time to engage someone, to “feel” the dynamics of how we connect with each other will we truly know we are attracted. I’ve met “model type” women, only to be permanently repelled by their personalities.
