As I get older, my attraction has shifted from prioritizing physical looks to prioritizing mental stimulation
yes and the experience the other partner can bring to the table
Are you a guy or girl? Men usually never shift from physical!

How cliche can you get

Chemistry is most important for a long term relationship. Don’t force it, let it happen naturally because if it doesn’t, it’s not meant to be and won’t last.
And your chemistry can change over time because people get new friends, jobs, or hobbies that will pull at their personality
It's not important to YOU. It IS important to others.

There is no such thing as chemistry. How come some people say we have chemistry and the other person dont? It is not real. It is an illusions you oeep reading online.
Beauty lies in the eye of beholder which is absolutely true I think. What's attractive to someone is not to someone else!!
It's funny how they're still pushing multiculturalism, multiculturalism has basically destroyed America. it's an illusion that for the most part does not work. Just like the Civil Rights Movement. It was also it was also an illusion which has destroyed the African American family for the most part...
But there is a general baseline of what people think is beautiful.. You take 100,000 men of all races, and ages. And you ask them is Lizzo better looking than Beyonce.. 99,998 will pick Beyonce..
@@NeverGoFullRetard415 true lol of all the language u decided to speak facts
I like thus
Good advise

I don't think I ever had to build chemistry. My experience so far has been that the chemistry was just automatically there with some people.
Yep. The chemistry was automatically there for me with some guy in my class. In spite of that attraction, he still screwed any chick who would give him the time of day. He was cute, too.
@@Nirual that isn't chemistry, that's just flat out attraction. You literally said that in your post. Child.
With my actual boyfriend, I have a great chemistry, even if at the beginning we hadn't that. We've just built our chemistry putting effort into knowing each other
Ya it' s there or it' s not.
For sure, I think some people are aware or can pick up on chemistry before interacting with them and lots of people can’t feel it. I would say it’s like intuition
#7 Bold Communication. He got me. He said what he meant and meant what he said. I'll never forget our first encounter. There's no one like him. Rest in Paradise.
Yes communication is an important one, if they can' t communicate with me it won' t work.
Damn rest easy
sorry for your loss, much love to you
@@sondoszahra8291 thank you🙏🏾
Had someone special like that too, he passed away. May yours and mines rest in heaven😢😇
Personality is the most attractive and being on the same vibe. Also being at the same maturity level.
Your info referencing the color red is spot on! I had this red suit and EVERYTIME I wore that suit to a job interview...I got hired for the job. Thanks for the other 14 attraction pointers! 👍
It does not work everytime. There were times were the interviewer felt you want to outshine them.
As I get older, I’ve started to become more attracted to body language than just looks and muscles. I like some specific gestures and mannerisms
Re smiling for men…I’m a ‘happy-go-lucky’ kinda guy & am almost always genuinely smiling. Women who are attracted to me *always comment on it as one of the reasons why they are.
Yes I agree men that smile are more attractive in my opinion
@@mons5267 you say that buy I've seen studies that document that women find men who smile/smile a lot creepy looking and that they're attracted to men who have a more serious expression on their face.
men who smile more > men who smile less. you don't have to look constantly happy but smiling is something that men generally don't do enough
Different faces being attractive is not evidence of non physical traits being the determinant. It’s that those faces satisfy the criteria for attractive faces. Symmetry, pronounced features, lack of blemishes and signs of youth can be displayed in multiple ways.
Why did I find my wife attractive when I first saw her and she had a port stain birth mark over her eye ?
@@cammontreuil7509 Cause she has multiple features to assess
@@cammontreuil7509 beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Rethinking I should not have commented to abstract nomenclature.
@@cammontreuil7509 I understand.my mate is blind in one eye and that eye is noticeablñy larger than the other, the asymmetry made me linger on his face longer than usual for.me so.likely he took that as an indication of interest on my part and it was true.l am a hobby artist so pay even MORE attention to visual cues than others do..i really gaze at people.and objects that grab,my attention. judt.part.of.mynartitistcimoriemtatiom.
That's not true, sometimes, being attractive can be a cruse. They envy you. When you're beautiful, truly beautiful. They will harass you.
Yeah, but even MORE people will jump to your defense, so.... it's a net positive.
@@Subhumanoid_ That's not true, neither. I had them turn their backs on me. That's why I don't have friends. They're backstabbers.
@@Tinyfurball He doesn’t understand lol people make being attractive seem like there is no negatives. Which perpetuate more negative actions on attractive people. people view you as being full of yourself and try to take you down a notch. Ridiculous. Men and women do this. They literally have no empathy for you. Mostly disdain
@@Tinyfurball Who gives a shit about people, Do your own thing and go your own way.
@@donatello9482 I ain't full of myself, idiot.
I’ve had a chance to talk to a psychologist on Voicely. She told me some of these facts and it really blowed my mind. Great video!
The color red also makes you hungrier. If you look at the inside of most fast food restaurants and their logos, they all have some red in it.
lollllll
@@maxalexander8564 look it up. It's called color psychology. So blue and green are seen a lot inside of jobs because it makes you more productive. They're also the most trustworthy colors because of the sky and the grass/plants. Pink makes you docile. I forget what NFL team would do this , but they would paint the visitors locker room pink to make them lower energy. They do that in prison as well. Black is authoritative. You should look it up. It's pretty interesting.
He' s not wrong! Diffrent colours in diffrent rooms also give off diffrent vibes, feelings and affect you diffrently.
The same goes for the color orange. McDonald’s is red and yellow but combined it makes orange. ☺️
The face similarity in couple is so true!! I just recently realized how similar me and my ex boyfriend look. My google photos would even confuse our photos up with one another! What a trip😅
It is not what a person looks like on the outside but what is on the inside that counts to me
What he says about being in a relationship and being attracted to others is very true. I thought I was bad for feeling this way and turns out other guys feel the same.
No you should feel bad
I'm a woman and I expect to be attracted to all sorts of people. It's healthy. I was looking at a young boy in high school the other day lol and I'm in my 30s
@@skyejacques Haha, seems about right. I get hit on by women in their late 20's and early 30's at my workplace, meanwhile I'm sitting in the shallow twenties ✌
It's a human thing , u can't silence the mind ..but you can be responsible and to not go so far with your own ideas and desires..see the difference? The second one makes a guy a bad person even if it's just thoughts.
Shame on you. Leave children alone.
I have to say, you have a remarkable voice. One of the more striking voices. Good stuff 👍🏾
Haha, love it: 2:20 "Rapport is a complicated social relationship built upon deeper knowledge and mutual understandings"... Fun fact for non-french speakers: "rapport" is simply the french word for "relation". Personal comment: I love how there is this part of american culture that is so obsessed with (i) these top 10 lists (ii) the idea that to be smart and successful you just need to learn some secret "techniques" (iii) how you aparently need to invent new facy marketing buzzwords like "rapport" to make your thoughts sound very sophisticated and scientific. Love you guys 😘
His voice is a real turn on! Yes I am speaking of the man that's doing the voice over! The way he speaks is in itself a thing worth noticing and taking a note on ! Salute you sir !Love from INDIA.
think anyone who has the capacity to be open-minded and creative in any way is the most attractive..i've met a lot of people who have doctorate degrees but the only thing they can talk about are those things that are related to their respective fields like bruh let's talk about traumas, aliens, philosophy, mermaids and the things that make your life worth living🤦
emotionally unstable
@Louis Kingsta ok?
I love the message this video gives. So helpful
Beauty not lies in the external looks and attire. It's completely depends on the character and mindset Strictly personal opinion
It should depend on those traits however in this world we live in, too many people look at the cover and don't always delve into the character.
I just always been blessed I just have so much going for me
Congratulations for 2m subs 🎉🥳
Red,in fact is"attractive"because it attracts ones attention FIRST!! Red has the longest wavelength in the visible spectrum,thus it reaches ones eyes BEFORE any other color does!! My life-long neighbor and block-club president Bernard"Stonewall"Jackson brought this to my attention in 1990,as I and a few buddies were sitting on Ms. Quicks front porch with:"P"is smarter than the rest of you guys. HE has on a RED cap;so all the girls are going to SEE him FIRST!!" I went home later that evening and rsearched"Color"in my World Book Encyclopedia and found out red is not simply"louder"than other colors,but that it REACHES your eyes FIRST!!
For me it’s personality. A woman with a great personality, smiling, happy, are way more attractive than a textbook swimsuit model etc. And a natural look. For me a woman in a pair of jeans, sweatshirt, and a nice smile, is way more attractive than a skin tight dress and stilllettos.
I agree! My BF is absolutely more attractive to other women now that we are dating. He said when he was single and unattached, women did not approach him. I’m considered attractive and nothing is more appealing than a man with a beautiful woman😉
😂😂😂 TRUE!!!!!! Additionally, I "revamped" his whole look and style, so that now people don't even recognize him anymore xD
Good knowlege. Thanks for sharing 👍
This video just told me to smile sweetie
I can only say be authentic. everyone who finds you attractive also means you, and not some techniques or what you have heard about attractiveness. Everyone notices when you are not authentic. a fake smile is extremely repulsive.
Facts. A person who refuses to be authentic with someone, does not love them. Being authentic should happen with most people you meet in life. That has to happen 1st before any kind of relationship can form. Getting to know each other, then becoming friends, falling in love, establishing an emotional connection, sharing intimate parts of yourself that you dont share with anyone else... none of that can happen without both people being genuine and authentic. And somehow my husband expects me to believe he loves me although he refuses to be genuine. He doesnt understand how much of a tell of truth that truly is. Sorry for the too personal info. I'm stuck in a twilight zone marriage and just need a little validation that I'm not crazy. Well I am crazy, but I'm not wrong about authenticity being necessary for love and marriage. 💔
Thankful for playback speed settings
The part where women like men who don’t smile as much is false in my opinion. I think guys that smile are 10000% more attractive than guys that don’t.
Totally agree.
I agree as well!
For men, smiling with the eyes in stead of teeth is good if you ‘re alone. When a man has company from someone they already know they should smile once in a while (when a funny moment occurs or someone did something nice) but not all the time
Agreed! Nothing makes me melt more than when my bf smiles with his teeth 🤤
Absolutely love this channel!
Loved your video, you definitely hit the target 🎯 yea👍👍👍👍🤗👍
Thank you for the videos😃🙂
Great video top think!
I really appreciate this 😁❤️
I don’t think red is true for everyone, I think everyone has a shade that compliments their features, people tell me that black and navy bring out the color of my hair, eyes and skin.
It's hard to send strong messages with facial expressions with masks on
That's the point. It erases one's identity.
Stare at their soul and retain dominance.
The eyes actually speak a lot tho
@@rachel_ray8997 sounds like the social equivalent of Nazism

A lot of new info to think about. Thanks :)
"Maybe I'm just happy with you!!"I said while looking in the mirror. I look at my reflection and see,that I'm happy with------------ME.
Then your reflection gives you a thumbs up and a mischievous grin...without you moving at all! 😱

I'm not into men with facial hair.. just unattractive to me 😅 Face similarity , yes I agree with this as I have seen many married couples including my parents who looked alike. They're soulmates.
I am attracted to facial hair. I.know many are not.

Yea facial hair is just a no for me

"The best way to build chemistry is through conversation" Me(a quite and shy person who gets too nervous to talk to people) ...I will be a lonely hermit forever, lmao
Same here let us keep in touch each other I live in united Kingdom UK 🇬🇧 thank you and have a wonderful day
If you both have had similar experiences and have same interests that builds and creates chemistry period.
Excellent

I think this is fairly accurate but I definitely am not attracted to people that share my features or facial similarities.
Yeah… I’m attracted to girls with opposite facial features.
Wearing well fitted nice clothes with nice color tones that go with your skin color is huge . Doesn’t have to be expensive
I liked the video....but do not agree with some points...in my particular case....but I'm sure others will agree. 1. when I was single I always had specific and high standards for what I found attractive in the opposite sex....but I became more accepting of different attractiveness (wider range) after I entered my long-term relationship. this is opposite to the video......you could say that I decided to settle for his looks (that was not quite my type) because his personality was better than those that had the looks of my exes but not the other qualities that matter in longterm relationships.....and now I am extremely attracted to him....i know that there are other people with similar experiences. 2. facial hair on men, does not make someone look attractive or not, it is the overall look....some facial structures and features along with colouration look better with facial hair and some don't.......even those that do look better with facial hair, it's not any facial hair style that looks good on them. different lengths and shapes of facial hair suit different faces......i would never be able to say that I like facial hair on men generally speaking......I LOVE facial hair, on the faces that look good with facial hair, as long that the style and length suit that face. 3. I believe that the words beauty and attractiveness have a lot in common and can be used interchangeably but in some cases, they are very different. I believe that in a number of areas of the video the word attractiveness was used interchangeably with the word/meaning beauty, but not at the part of the video when it was said that to be attractive one doesn't need to have certain features and that what makes someone attractive, is self-grooming and health that stand for attractivness....NO, not really. The word "attractiveness" in this part represents "good image", which is also attractive. The thing is that different "things" can be attractive: natural beauty (doesn't matter if overweight or underweight, well-groomed or not, good sense of style or good taste) genetic features that make one attractive, and good image (taking cake of appearances/image with grooming exercise and finding a style that suits your body and face type). The naturally beautiful individual who takes care of their appearance will be WAY MORE attractive than an average individual that takes care of their appearance (in comparison, the latter might even be considered unattractive). What makes someone beautiful is the relation and balance of all their features...not a specific feature. Maybe not all scientists but only the ones who's research was used in the making of this video, have a weak grasp on "beauty"....their conclusion in the video was that if all attractive people do not share a feature therefore facial features do not make someone beautiful.....WRONG. I'll give an analogy, a room is made up of flooring, ceiling, walls, windows, doors, trim/mouldings, furniture and accessories. A room isn't beautiful if it has a "specific feature" such as a specific window or floor.......what makes a room beautiful is the balance and how all these features work together. So, yes, a face, isn't beautiful just because it has a specific chin or nose, but it is beautiful due to the balance (face symmetry) and how all the features look in relation to each other..... Yes, it's all about the structure and features of the face.....as a whole....t's art.
some people are quiet cuz they are shy. or observant. those are the traits that I had when I was younger. then I grew up that when I got older. but yeah it's not a bad thing it's not a good thing.
My preferences are broad when single? I've been single for years cuz I barely feel attracted to anyone.
I have good chemistry👍 with this video 💖🥰♥️Thank You💋🙏 💜👏🙏👍👍
*Time is finite! One day it will run out!*
Very interesting video sir. Now I have an idea.
2:52 " .... But how do you crearte chemistry? It's easier than you think: communication and be yourself!" So, it's imposible
Its all about intangible things,spark,electricity and mutual happiness of opposite sex will attract them the most and beautiness and handsomeness is a just BONUS!!!! -me😊
Welcome from Vietnam
Christy Brinkley pointed out smiling gives you a face lift. I look way better smiling.
Very true ❤❤❤
Here is the science from research in many countries many studies: 1. Males and females are both attracted most,strongly statistically to average faces that are symmetrical... 2. How closely one side matches the other predicts how attractive the face is rated overall. 3. Same with the body..asymmetry on the outside is a predictor of assymetry internally while symmetry predicts genetic health.. 4.We are all attracted to indicators of health: good teeth dental.hygiene, shiny hair,.clear eyes. 5. In women high hip to waist ratio, average weight are perceived as attractive...the wide hips predict ease of childbirth. 6. In men wider shoulders and narrower hips, an,average weight but muscled body...not extreme, is.prefered. 7.Some cultures like women to be of lower or more.weight that is culturally determined. 8.Signs of genetic abnomality are perceived as less attractive, low set ears, extra digits, etc even attached earlobes indicate less than average genetic internal normalality. Anyone with five or more of the seven most common anatomical abnormalities will,be perceived as less attractive one or two are not very predictive. 9.Some outliers LIKE some unusual features. I for example am attracted to longer and larger than average noses in men likely due to my Anglo Saxon ethnic heritage in which both genders.tend to have long noses on average. Yet I also.find some Middle Eastern,.Italian, Spanish ie substantial noses not my heritage attractive while I find tiny noses on men unattractive. I myself have a smaller shorter nose than average for my ethnic heritage so.perhaps I am pushed in mate choice to select.for genes that will balance my "too small" nose in my offspring and in fact that HAS been the case with. my offspring...interesting hypothesis at least.

Hey, very nice commenting
@@derekk.1750 Thanks Derek, glad you enjoyed it!
I tend to find more atractive not the regular people, but the ones who have differebt carachteristics. And some i can even manipulate my mind to find a person atractive. But the better atraction and real is when i just look at someone and you just get that atraction. I had that university collegue girl...I didn't find her beautiful at first time, because it was more than that, but like, some day, i had to write something on her back, and i felt a strong smell coming from her. Like i couldn't handle...
Chemistry is real science MK 🔥🦋🦋
Good very interesting
thank you so much loved it....
I'll say I met a woman at work years ago, and I hope I never see her again, thus was the strong sense of mutual attraction. Thank God we work a a large employer.
I love number 4...
I love how he said we tend to look for partners that look the same, me being latina interested in Asian men.. I beg to differ 😂
geart mate
What makes a woman or man really attractive is when the person shows her or his best side. 🤓😉😘
Chimistry ....is somthing just is there or not you d ont bild.......is even the when it should not be.....
great
That's true
I don't see much chat about what studies have proven about human attraction and the base, genetic and animal drives that we conceptualise as part of human culture. We ARE animals. Looks signify so much to those base parts, as do smell, yes, but also voice. Many cues are subconscious and the sooner, in my opinion (not stating fact), the sooner humans accept the animals in us, the simpler and easier life could be. Beauty bias is biology. No need to be butthurt about biology.
Love Is in the Air
I'm attracted to everyone and everything. Including YOU reading this comment. Sup dashing 😘
😉
Lmao
Awwwwwww
I absolutely disagree with A LOT of what you said. Especially the fact that you stated that chemistry can grow, or that it's under someone's control. I'm 49 years old. And I've found that either you have chemistry, or you don't. For me, The very first kiss with someone is the telltale sign. Either it's there, or nowhere! After the first kiss, If I want to continue to kiss that person & I feel sensations run wild throughout my body & I get butturflys Or I feel NOTHING at all & I'm not going to take anything any further, because kissing them is like kissing my mom on the cheek! So if you're telling me I can make the chemistry grow.. I need detailed information from you on exactly how you are able to do that!?!?
Some studies show that kissing is as much,about smell as,taste. Smell in the animal kingdom is hugely important. In kate attractiinmitmis used to.determime genetic complememtsriness in potemtiañ mates ie you are seeking someone to mate eith with whom you do.NOT share alot.of.genetic abnomalities. Errors.in genes are very common because we have so many genes and it is believed we in part pick mates by smell.
Well said, I agree!
#wow ✨️✨️✨️✨️
I don't have chemistry with everything and everyone,with some people or men I feel stressful,nervous,cold,boring,mad sick.
Y’all just the fact that we looked this video up and opened it 😑
I really like the Animations Style of this i dont know Why.
I love the great red lipstick
Number 7 is key
No it’s straight forward (male) Facial symmetry Jaw line Hair line Height Build
#4 Facial Similarity is basically saying you fall for people who look like you. So why, when you were picking the images to illustrate the couples did you pick a dark person to go with a light skinned person about 90% of the time? Top Think needs to think a lot more.
Because it’s about similarity of facial features (shape of face , eyes, nose). It has zero to do with color of skin.
@@agnieszkat3935 Nonwhite people don't generally have the same facial features as white people. And the category is Facial Similarity not Facial Feature.
Tell me you're a racist without telling me you're a racist
You can't control someone else's desire for you with the things you can control. It doesn't work that way. Financial stability is the only compromise to lust. Beyond that, you're SOL.
I tend to fall for very different people from me

Attraction is subjective and therefore can not be analyzed.
Good video but I beg to differ regarding ppl find those that look like them attractive. These days ppl are so not dating ppl that look like them to say the least. This information is very dated.
