Attraction





(Click on the image for a larger view)

There seem to be two types of attraction, Physical and Emotional.  The physical ripens into emotional involvement with time and continued satisfaction. 

The line on the chart is an arbitrary representation of Time Together and it moves more or less upward and to the right as attraction deepens.

When Physical attraction is Lo and Emotional likewise; the situation is new,.  In terms of people one could say they just met.

When Physical attraction is Hi and Emotional is Lo, the result could be erotic love; the classic “one night stand.”

When Physical is Lo and Emotional Hi; we have the idealized love from afar, similar to the pining suitor whose never met his intended face to face.

When Physical and Emotional are both Hi; the result is Romantic Love that is more or less permanent.
