Attraction

Dec 02, 2007 13:02

It really boggles me sometimes when I see instances of people following utterly blind on the sole basis of attraction. I can't say that I've never been a culprit of this - only that I've learned and try to open my eyes as wide when I'm head to head. In some cases I even feel like attraction is this evil thing that people can use to abuse their power over other people. Which happens. But in its simplest form, without looking at underlying intentions, it's really just a form of positive connection between 2 or more people. However, it's crazy what some people would do because of attraction. Things they would not even THINK they would do on a normal basis. Sometimes when I really think about it, it just disgusts me.

Everyone thinks they're their own complex, special being, but in fact everyone is essentially the same. People are actually really simple beings that have buttons that can be pressed in anyone's favor. It all depends on how well you've got your buttons guarded and how street smart you are to gain the upper hand. They say (and I know) that it's not manipulative because it's biological, but in the large scheme of things it's manipulation at its best.
