Attraction plays an important role in everyone's life and no one can get around it. It's not just about thinking someone is attractive or beautiful; contains much more scientific and psychological reasoning (Proximity and Attraction). When people make friends, it's because they are somehow attracted to the friend and if someone wants to be your friend, they find you quite attractive. Your friends influence your attraction and what you like in a significant other by how well and badly they speak about people (Proximity and Attraction). The way someone looks, behaves, smells, and many other things make people attracted to them or make them seem more attractive to others. Studies show that there are five different types of attraction; proximity, association, similarity, mutual liking and physical attractiveness. However, there are other things that make you attracted to someone besides the five main types of attraction (proximity and attraction). Proximity means that you want someone to always be with you or close to you. People tend to be attracted to other people who live near them or to people they see often. Closeness has to do with attraction because if you see someone often or talk to someone often, you are more likely to get to know each other, become friends, and then start dating. To really have feelings for someone and be attracted to them, you have to be very close to them and see them quite often. Leon Festinger and two of his colleagues, Stanley Schachter and Kurt Back, studied proximity in 1950. Their study later became one of the most famous studies on proximity. They investigated a small community that was part of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology campus (Proximity and Attraction). They... middle of paper... what you want will come one day and that good things take time. Furthermore, they may not be grateful for the things they get. If they are grateful, they will not take less than the best and will be positive about getting it. Last, don't act. The laws of attraction won't just happen before your eyes. You have to wait for the right person to come along (The Universal Law of Attraction). Attraction is a very confusing and difficult thing to conceive of. It's more than just who you like or find attractive, it's more of a science. Whether it's someone's smell, look, or personality, the reason a person likes them is attraction. Studies show that there are five different types of attraction, not including types of attraction that branch out from the five main types of attraction. People can't help who they are attracted to, they simply like the people they were meant to be with.
