We can like someone at first sight, but with another person, for some reason, there is not even an iota of attraction. Is it "chemistry", hormones, maybe looks or personality to blame? Science has finally discovered why we are so attracted to certain people.
What is the reason that someone us CRAZY attractive, while the other person just doesn't have chemistry? Researchers from the University of Lübeck in Germany set out to find out this eternal puzzle. In doing so, they discovered that us we are attracted to people who understand us, who understand our feelings.

Mixed signals are not desirable
In other words: men should more attractive women whose feelings they can recognize or read with confidence. If the brain can process the sender's emotional signals well enough, we are rewarded and we feel attracted to that person. But if that doesn't happen, if we can't read a person's emotions, then the brain can negative "evaluation".
"Correct understanding of another person's feelings and intentions is essential for social interaction," says Silke Anders, author research and Professor of Neuroscience at the University of Lübeck. "In order to achieve common goals, partners must understand each other and constantly "upgrade" information about their current intentions and motivations, anticipate the other's emotions and adjust their behavior appropriately."
