Why are certain people just…so attractive that you cannot stop yourself from staring at them? (hexbear.net)

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”?

It happens to a lot of people

Your brain sees someone who just hits those checkmarks and little hearts come popping out of your head

It's just infatuation and it is the bane of my existence

It’s usually faces, isn’t it? The body and stuff are good too, obviously, but it’s the face that gets ya.

Yep, exactly it

Gotta say, it makes things awkward
