You can find someone physically attractive and stop admiring them.
You can admire someone and not desire them.
You can love someone and lose respect for the way they behave.
Those differences matter because people often use the word "attraction" to cover all three.
Attraction is the pull
Attraction is the part that says, "I want to move closer."
It can be physical, sexual, romantic or emotional.
Attraction is not fully rational.
You do not choose every person you find attractive.
You do choose what you do with the attraction.
