I don’t think it’s something “objective” - it doesn’t happen with all attractive people or even most of them. And I don’t think others find them as attractive either. But sometimes, some very few times, I see someone either irl or online and I literally can’t stop staring at them. I think about them for hours afterwards. It’s only happened a handful of times but by god it is so freaking weird.
If there is an “objective” rating system, even if it’s subjective to the observer, then these people are not 8 or 9 or 10. They are outside the freaking scale. And I don’t mean they’re 11/10 or something. No, the scale just doesn’t even apply to them.
Like, am I weird? Does this only happen to me? Should I get my brain checked? It this what people mean when they say “type”?
Brain wiring probably determines the exact shapes and structures we decide are "attractive" and different brain wiring results in wide variety of results, especially when that wiring is trained by society, conditions, existing standards, a lifetime of experiences, etc etc. Occasionally some people just hit how your brain in-particular is wired up perfectly.
That was my thought too. It's crazy how that works!
And I love it when it happens, even though I feel like I'll never be able to get with someone who does that for my brain 😍
