5 Types of Attraction You May Experience

- Do you currently have a crush on someone? Are you in love? How about the interest in the psychology of attraction? Even though we are not here to discuss the science of attraction and how attraction happens in the brain, we are here to discuss the five types of attraction: sexual attraction, romantic attraction, sensual attraction, aesthetic attraction, and platonic attraction. Which of these types of attractions have you experienced so far? Are there any we missed?
A platonic relationship is a close relationship between two persons in which sexual desire is nonexistent.
Sensual Attraction is the desire to have physical, but not inherently sexual, contact with a specific person.
Romantic Attraction is usually assumed to be bundled with sexual attraction, or that they are one and the same.
Sexual attraction is pretty self explanatory.
Aesthetic Attraction is the pleasure in the appearance of a specific person in the same way you might find a piece of artwork or pretty scenery.

Are there any other attractions that we have missed out in this video? How many of these did you already know about? Do you ever feel confused about how you are attracted to someone?

Sooooo my attraction to BTS and NCT is jusr aesthetic attraction??????
I suppose, I mean... I could be other things but I bet you a majority of celb crushes are based on a persons aesthetic bc media figures portray themselves in a flattering way (for business y’know)
This isn't seem to happen to me if I'm attracted to someone I go all the way

Ah Hello fellow Ace 😎♠️
omg hi ace
"Romantic attraction is the desire to be in a romantic relationship with someone"... Thanks for clearing that up
LMFAOOOO
I was also wondering
Same omfg
It's still not clear to me!!! I dont understand what romantic attraction is without the platonic/sensual/sexual aspect of it, it's seriously driving me nuts 💨 like I might be aromantic or something but I don't even know what 'romantic' means
@@Mezzy.. Why do you feel to need to be in a bubble...just find a way to express yourself without seeking direct labels...It's your own life, after all, so you should care what others think/understand or try to make them understand.
Now when it comes to communicating with society...those labels help in packaging so each individual can have an idea or "understand" and can somewhat be on the same page....but the error is that we are too fixated on the definitions rather than the experiencing.
I’ve always been so confused about my feelings for people. This really gives me some good insight on what I’m really feeling, and what they are specifically.
Glad it helped! What did you realized from this video so far? Are you opened to sharing?
I realized that that my brain is normal and the society is terible. For feeling attracted towards someone and not sexualy is normal. I have a lot of estetic attractions and platonic. But when in relationship I feelt like a siner for having those.
Ivan Trifunjagic holy crap that’s exactly how I feel!
@@dartodeumac Most of my close friends have been male, so I'm used to having very intense platonic relationships (often deeper & more intense than my romantic relationships!), that has sometimes included sensual attraction ("cuddle buddies"), but without any romantic or sexual desires. While this was normal for me--and none of these friends indicated it wasn't--I started to realize that other people thought it was strange, or made assumptions about the relationship despite our protestations...Too bad for them, I guess; it worked great for my friends and I--the joy of friendship, all the emotional intensity with none of the romantic expectations.
Started out that way with my husband, but then (as I often tell him) he snuck out of the Friendzone...
@@teresamcmurrin8672 I'm thinking of the reply and realising that society has a huge roll. The mind of masses. I feel more feels towords females and now I just realised it's because we are thought female have privilege of emotions over male. So go to plays for sharing emotions and cuddling is always female. And it's not to get sexual. There is a lot I can write about it and I will.
Another type of attraction that gets overlooked a lot is called altereous attraction. It's a type of attraction separate from platonic and romantic attraction characterized by the desire to be close to someone emotionally, or to be important to them. It can be hard to distinguish from platonic or romantic attraction because it can have elements of both, but basically if you feel a certain way for someone and you know it's not platonic but romantic doesn't really feel right either, you may want to consider altereous attraction. Anyway, thanks for making this video! It's really rare to see people talk about the different attractions so I'm glad y'all are 😊
Thanks for telling! Can you help me understand what exactly romantic attractions mean? Like, what makes it different from others?
Oh I think this is often what you feel towards like mentors! You revel in their attention b/c it makes you feel so validated!
@@dmn4747 ohhhh this is definitely what I felt towards my wrestling coach, this makes so much more sense now 😿😿

Are you in love with the environment? and the sun? :)
I mean i too enjoy looking at exotic and beautiful environments, it's one of my not-so-guilty guilty pleasures
IKR? why everyone is SO BEAUTIFUL?? 😫😫
Sameee.
Ikr??? Ohh pretty girl o///o ... ohhh pretty boy o///o... ohhhh pretty human being o///o
is there something like 'kindness attraction' because when someone shows even an ounce of kindness towards me I feel like giving them my entire existence
Sameeeee and if someone just say "good morning" with a smile on their face i wanna hug them and wish their the world
Arushi Kumar yeah, it’s called unhealthy attraction
That's basically gratitude I guess
omg same... like someone could hold the door for me and id want to tell them i love you instead of thank you lmao
It could fall under emotional attraction that tends to be an overarching attraction that overlaps with other ones (platonic, romantic, etc.). The emotion(s) that kindness evokes in you makes you grow attached to the source of it.
The only attraction I feel is pulling me towards my fridge👌🏻

I feel like sensual attraction is more expansive than people define it. They tend to focus on the tactile aspect (touch) while sensuality involves things that engage all the senses. Sensual attraction could involve being drawn to someone's voice (raspy, low, musical, etc.), their form (slender, broad, tall, stocky, etc.) and how they move (graceful, languid, abrupt etc.), their smell (fragrance, natural, environmental, etc.), and so on.
Yeah as it’s SENSUAL so it should apply to more than just one sense (touch), I suppose everyone feels it differently, but it’s still the same
Uh. That's aesthetic attraction. Sensual attraction needs to be sensual i.e. (non-sexual) touching hast to be desired. If you like someone's characteristics that is under appearances, aesthetics. You can also feel different types of attractions in different combinations. They don't have to be by themselves or in typical combinations.
And some people do experience romantic attraction to such a low degree that it's close to being platonic. Romantic attraction doesn't have to involve wanting a relationship, it's an emotion, like the butterflies in your stomach and fuzzy feelings etc. But everyone's experience on that emotion varies, so not having one trait doesn't mean it's not romantic attraction. Similarly, some people may have sexual attraction but they do not desire a sexual relationship with said person they're attracted to.
@@halfofakitty Sensual involves the senses. There are at least eight sensory systems, so it should be beyond just touch, one of many of the senses.
Watching the hypnotic sway of hips or hearing a raspy voice in your ear or smelling the faint vanilla scent of cologne on cotton are all sensory experiences that could and should fall under sensual attraction.
Aesthetic is mainly appreciating (visual) beauty. Sensual is an experience of touch, sight, smell, taste, sound, movement, etc.
@@HeadDetectiveLassie
TLDR
NO, aesthetics is not defined by looks. Officially the term is defined by beauty, which in turn is defined as "a quality or *combination* of qualities that gives pleasure to the *mind or senses* ." The last 3 paragraphs at the bottom are Wikipedia's definition of aesthetics which greatly outweighs that one word definition of the term. The bolded ARE under aesthetics.
But under your logic tho, there would be no other forms of attraction then. And pairing words together can change the definition of a term, much like my afterthought below that is more synonymous with the word mental, rather than actual feelings. More accurately just a poor word choice when they were trying to come up with an opposite to physical (attraction). But it is a term already in use by allosexual people, so it's not like it should be a term that needs redefining necessarily.
On a side note (this one isn't popular so it slipped my mind), 🤔 there is Emotional Attraction, which is an attraction to *who* someone is, and basically a sub type of aesthetic attraction. It sounds nitpicky, but the difference is obvious when it's felt. So gracefulness, swagger, etc. would fall under that. I would word aesthetic attraction as a pull to *look* at someone because of their appearance/demeanor, but emotional attraction as a *pull/admirants* toward them because of their personality / demeanor; *who* they are.
Wiki:
Aesthetics is a branch of philosophy that deals with the nature of beauty and taste, as well as the philosophy of art. It examines subjective and sensori-emotional values, or sometimes called judgments of sentiment and taste.[2]
Aesthetics covers both natural and artificial sources of aesthetic experience and judgment. It considers what happens in our minds when we engage with aesthetic objects or environments such as viewing *visual art, listening to music, reading poetry, experiencing a play, or exploring nature.* The philosophy of art specifically studies how artists imagine, create, and perform works of art, as well as how people use, enjoy, and criticize art. Aesthetics considers why people like some works of art and not others, as well as how *art can affect moods or even our beliefs.* [3] Both aesthetics and the philosophy of art ask questions like "What is art?," "What is a work of art?," and "What makes good art?"
Scholars in the field have defined aesthetics as "critical reflection on art, culture and nature".[4][5] In modern English, the term "aesthetic" can also refer to a set of principles underlying the works of a particular art movement or theory (one speaks, for example, of a Renaissance aesthetic).[6] Aesthetic in this sense has come to mean something like *the aura a given thing produces* , and is closely related to the slang term *"vibe".*
Thanks for elaborating on it! I learned something new!

Oh fk
why i think this is math?
Thank you for this one. 🙂 I’ve never experienced sexual attraction, or sexual desire, for anyone (I’m Asexual), but I do experience all the others mentioned in this video.
Thank you for sharing! I'm sure others can relate too! :)
Yes, I relate
Same :/ kind of wish I did though
i’m asexual and aromantic! sup fellow ace :D (i think the only attraction i feel is sensual and aesthetic)
same i experience the others except sexual attraction
This explains everything....
I really do only want sensual, platonic, and romantic relationships in my life......
Have you experienced those? Why not sexual? Care to share?
so you’re asexual? :D
I’ve thought that maybe I’m asexual, so that might be why, but I’m still not sure yet. Had a friend once where we had a great platonic and sensual relationship, but things all went downhill when they decided they didn’t want me in their life anymore. I haven’t yet experienced a romantic relationship, at least not a real one, (it’s hard to explain but I accidentally led someone on once..) but I do want s romantic relationship. Sexual relationships, on the other hand, aren’t appealing to me. Not sure why exactly, I mean I’m perfectly fine talking about it, but engaging in anything sexual? Not really my thing.
Oh, by the way, thanks to everyone who replied to this random comment lol and everyone who liked it. I thought it’d just go unnoticed XD
@@dewdrop101 I can kind of relate, ig many can relate because the idea of doing sexual things with someone isn't really intriguing and is good only in stories for me
I’m aesthetically attracted by the illustration of this video
Glad you love it! Karen did the animation! :)
I have so much deep-seated trauma around attraction and relationships... These videos that break things down into simple, non-threatening concepts are so helpful! 💜
Have you started looking into therapy to heal some of those trauma?
@@Psych2go Yes, I started counseling on BetterHelp with a therapist who specializes in trauma about two weeks ago! It's been challenging but helpful. Here's my referral link if anyone wants to try it free for a week: www.betterhelp.com/rpc/31a25f9c8d4d9c6e01
0:58 "Squish!" I'm so happy you included that word in the Platonic attraction section. There are also other words created to describe the other attractions. For example a swish describes aesthetic attraction. And also Sensual attraction uses the word Lush however this one is very very rarely used.
Yeah, even I was happy :)
Btw, did you understand what romantic attraction actually means? There aren't any distinct features mentioned for romantic attraction and I'm confused...
i really like magnetic attraction. something about it seems electrifying.
Very true.
Got a squish on you now, you're too funny 😂

For me its Sensual Attraction, but my gf and I are having some issues and she doesn't like being around me lately...
Happy New year 🎉
I hope you all have a good new years 🎉🍻🎈
I feel validated by this video as an asexual. It makes me really happy to know that aesthetic attraction is a thing. I've been explaining that to people for years, but now hearing about it from a legit source makes me feel like I haven't been lying/making up things to myself and others. Thank you.
And sensual. I've head trouble trying to be physically intimate with guys without them thinking I want sex. I just wanna be close and snuggly, good grief.
This definitely helps. With my best friend, I have this weird urge to like cuddle and hug and stuff but I'm not sexually attracted to her (anymore at least) but it always feels weird to just randomly hug someone because that's not what people do. Now I see that its just platonic and sensual. Nice to have words for it
Wow just in time. Now I know I‘m sensually attracted to a friend of mine. I was really confused about constantly wanting physical contact with her while I couldn‘t really imagine kissing her
me too...
me too
but sensual attraction includes kissing
@@nandaschneider53 it depends
"Sensual attraction" ohhhh thats explain my deep desire to give hugs to friends. I love hugs, specially when its from someone im close with.
And that's how I realised I was on the aromantic spectrum. I always fought that because I felt sensual attraction towards someone it meant that I was in love or had crushes on a lot of people (even my friend) but now I understand that it wasn't the case. And it makes a lot much more sense to my life too !
So I’ve just realised ive never felt romantic attraction in my life... sensual, aesthetic, and platonic attraction rule my life
Same. I feel aesthetic attraction towards people of my gender I feel like I want to be just like him in the future but I also feel sensual attraction at the same time. This always makes me question my sexuality who I really am乁| ･ 〰 ･ |ㄏ but I Never felt romantic or sexual attraction towards anyone in my life ಠ_ಠ damn this is so confusing.

As an asexual, I'm super happy this video exists. I have a romantic partner that I am not sexually or even physically attracted to, but this doesn't take away from our relationship, we just show our love in a different way. Thanks for clearing up the common misinterpretation that being romantically attracted to someone means you're also sexually and physically attracted to them.
"Number six: Magnetic Attraction. This is when your polarity is either the opposite of someone else and you are physically pulled together, or the same as theirs, and you are physically repelled."
As an asexual who is beyond confused with anything more than an acquaintance, this video was extremely helpful! The amount of anxiety that has been released is ridiculous.

Me:Perfect timing!
Happy New Year Everyone!!!
W T lol same here, except I think I’m experiencing 4 of them towards my SO (all besides sexual; I’m ace)
I should show this video to my friends and family who don’t really understand my sitution as an asexual person.
I’m panromantic, meaning I could have a romantic relationship with someone, no matter what their gender is. I don’t care about that. That way, I do feel romantic attraction.
There are some people I just want to be friends with, although this is an attraction I haven’t really thought about. I have just made friends.
If I ever get a lover, I do want to be near them. I want to hug, cuddle, hold hands, maybe even kiss idk. So I feel like I can definetely feel that type of attraction, but it’s nothing sexual.
Aesthetic attraction, I feel this so much. It’s not people only, but also pictures, scenery, nature, whatever. So this is a clear yes. Some people also look very appealing to the eyes, but there’s nothing more - they just look nice.
Lastly: sexual attraction. I have never been able to relate to adjectives like «hot» and «sexy», I just don’t. When I had a boyfriend, my friends asked me «what’s the dirtiest thought you’ve had about him» and I thought about it, and I noticed that I hadn’t thought about anything dirty with him. I told them that, and they were very surprised and didn’t believe me.
I was with him for 4 months, and I never had a desire to have sexual contact with him or anything like it. In fact, us hugging was enough affection for me. I felt comfortable with that.
I realized that something was up, when my friends talked about wanting to get «railed» by this and that person. I saw «sex education» series on netflix, and it greatly shows how someone want to be sexual with someone else. Also other teen series where that was all they wanted. I get it’s a series, but it’s based on teens thoughts and actions - and I’m supposed to be able to relate to this, but I can’t.
Lastly, my mom did seem a bit surprised when I said to her «everyone cares about sex, I don’t get the big deal». She was surprised, yep. That’s how I came to teh conclusion I’m asexual. My friends still don’t quite get it, but that’s fine. I don’t get them either, lol
I can totally relate with the 5th part, the sexual attraction. When I was in school, my friends used to talk about guys ass and how they want that guy to kiss him or make our with him and they used to talk about sex all the time. I didn't enjoy it at all, and they thought I was weird because I didn't have any horny thoughts with the person I liked..
when I like a person, idk I just love their vibe, their small quirks, their smartness or dumbness but I never think of kissing or hugging or making out with them 😂
it's fine if I can do those things with them, but that's like the least thing I can think of, I thought I was at fault for not being able to "love" a person, with lots of self reflections, I realised it's okay to be like that.
My fiance and I both understand that we will find other people pleasing to look at but that doesn't mean we want to do anything with them and it's nice. This is the healthiest relationship I've ever been in.
“ thanking someone is nice to look like that doesn’t mean you always want to do anything with them“
Preach!
Cute animal:
Me: **sensuality intensifies**
"What comes to your mind when you hear the word attraction?"
Me: Magnets ._.
I think I might be ace. One moment when I doubted this was about a month ago when one of my classmates stood up in front of the rest of the class and I just couldn’t stop looking at them. I thought they were so beautiful. So I went back to thinking I wasn’t ace. But then I thought about that moment later and realized that I didn’t feel any desire to be physically close to that person, or be in a romantic or sexual relationship. So I’m pretty sure I’m asexual now.
Thank you for making this video. It was always hard to explain all of this to myself and I feel better now after watching this.
It’s so sad when romantic and sexual attraction do not align with each other. Like, I’m a girl and had boy crushes since I was a kid but then suddenly fell in love with a girl friend. For 5 years I had strong romantic feelings towards her but never even thought about doing anything sexual. Even now my first relationships ended, partly because me and my girlfriend never managed to develop genuine sexual attraction towards each other. I honestly feel so broken and keep wondering if there are any people like that here in this comment section? Tell me I’m not the only one :(
One thing I must say about your videos is that your animation quality is top notch. Pass my kind regards to the animators.
This is quality content and is truly underrated as a channel. You give people one of the greatest gifts, an understanding of themselves though art and expression.
This channel is art in its purist form, it shows a high level of compassion and love though art. It makes people feel like they are valued that they are cared for even in there darkest place.
This channel and your work cannot be valued it is a significant asset to the online community and the world as it addresses topics that are important to a large variety of people.
Your videos are often a fun educational into the human phyche and they often get us into a place of retrospection of which many of us has have never explored.
I can see that you guys care about others though your work... Thanks, you are making society a better place
My friend and I are currently bonding over both having a squish (platonic crush) on the same person and it’s honestly such a wholesome experience. We both just really wanna be their friend and get to know them, and my heart is so full to get to experience and talk about this with someone else who understands and doesn’t judge. Fun times I recommend
Damn this video is very helping my confusion. I have a sensual attraction to a friend, not cooperated by romantic nor sexual feelings. Now I know, I can go on with my life peacefully lmao
I'm a straight girl and recently i was so confused with my orientation coz i kind of felt attracted to some of my female friends. I was literally so scared and irritated. Turns out it was an aesthetic attraction.

oh man, this was so helpful since I'm dipping my toes into the a-spec community. I never thought about it, since I had crushes and definitely have sexual attraction to people, but I realized through this video, I only have romantic attraction to people I have developed an emotional bond with, and all my crushes we're aesthetic and sensual attraction.
what does romantic attraction mean?
@@coolstar7819 you want to be romantic with someone, it's really hard to define, it's probably different for everyone
I'm happy someone is explaining different forms of attraction. I've never had a sexual attraction to anyone. I could see their beauty but just didn't care after that. It's why I never had a crush based on that. Which over time I felt weird because every time I was asked hey do you have a crush on anyone I just said no. Then they didn't believe me and poked and prodded thinking i was to nervous to tell. For the longest time I thought I was weird and freak for not seeing what everyone else sees in each other. But over time I learned I'm not weird just have a different form of attraction compared to everyone else because of factors like a lower sex drive. So its nice to see this to be brought to more people's attention
i love how they explain it in a clear way but also in a scientific and mature way so that people pay attention on the facts instead of "omg sex hahaha" etc and people understand it clearly

Psych2Go I thought it was a fantastic video! This channel does a brilliant job of covering a wide range of topics. The animation and the beautiful voice of the narrator make it so pleasant! I thought the subject of attraction was covered extremely well! Thanks so much for taking such great care with the channel, it definitely shows. One of the best on CZcams! Wishing you an incredibly happy new year!
❤️happy new year!!!
Thank you for your style of content. This is perfect for explaining attraction to students in an appropriate, non-intimidating style.
AESTHETIC ATTRACTION!! EVERYTHING SEEMS SO CLEAR TO ME NOW
These videos are amazing! I’ve learned so much from this channel! Big thanks 💕
Thank you so much for this video, Psych2Go! This is incredibly helpful especially to asexuals who want people to know that sexual attraction isn't the only attraction a human being can experience
I loved the artwork gj!
Also I really like the voice actor to!
Uhhh I hope to see more content soon!
It was so cute!!!
Thank you! We will let the team know :)
Hi Psych2Go! I just wanna say thank you so much for making these videos and I hope you’ll make even more this year! I love learning psychology and the small, condensed way of learning is my favourite type so I’m glad I found this channel 🥰
I swear you guys post just the right video at the right time. I was just trying to explain my attraction to a friend, but didn't know how. She assumed I liked her, but I was trying to describe it was more of a platonic aesthetic attraction
Aww the animations are so cute in this video!
Love the points you brought up in each of the types, there are a lot of misconceptions when it comes to people expecting sexual relations in all types of relationships
Aww. Thanks! We will let Karen know.
I’ve experienced 4 out of 5. Thanks, Psych2Go for pointing out different types of attraction, not just romantic or sexual.🙂
I love to see this because it is quite the topic. At some point I felt this connection with people at a Sense 8 level type of thing and it does make me feel anxious because I have a romantic relationship with whom I share everything...or well, almost everything and it is like this with other people. Which I believe, tends to be misinterpreted or can be judged as who knows what when ESP can clearly tell when such reaction is in front of them.
Thanks so much for this!!! ❤️
It’s so aesthetically pleasing!!
I’m attracted by the illustration of this video
Aww. Thanks :) Happy new year to you!
I don't always comment on videos, but I really wanna say that helped me out a lot! I've always been so bothered and confused about how I feel towards my friend, and I even get scared sometimes that it might be because I'm romantically or sexually attracted.
But I'm glad I came across this video because it made what I'm actually feeling much more clearer and understandable for me. Thank you and keep it up!
Edit: We're dating now
😂 Great punch line! 😂
Phewww... Now I'm feeling confirmed & reliefed!!!
I thought about this kind of "Love" and somehow knew, that there are differet kinds of "Love". But I couldn't pin it down, so thx for the good aswears!!!
THANK YOU for this!!!!! This is awesome 👏👏👏👏💕
This really helps, because i thought there were only three types of attraction (romantic, platonic & sexual) when it comes to relationships. I'm ace and I actually feel a lot of sensual attraction towards my crushes 😂
As an asexual person, now I have a video to show someone when I want to explain about types of attraction and how I can still have crushes and want romantic relationships without feeling sexual attraction towards anyone💕
I love this channel, these types of videos are so sweet and adorable!
this video really helped me, thank you so much!!
Thank you for this. I’m figuring these things out for myself and I had no idea there were words to explain these aspects of my life. Thank you.
You're welcome! What did you take away from this video?
Validation that I can be in love with someone and not want a sexual relationship. Throughout my life I’ve fallen in love with people but didn’t want sex. My feelings were just as strong as those I’ve experienced for a sexual partner.
I thought I was weird in this way and have been hesitant to talk about it. When I accepted my HSP-ness I figured that was the cause.
Your video has helped me by providing a framework to describe these strong feelings...without getting caught up in labels or feeling like there must be something wrong with me.
Thank you.
I never clicked so fast in my life🤣
What made you clicked on this video? :P
@@Psych2go Well your channel stole my heart and all I could do was to click fast 😙🤣
*Love youuu and thanks for all the great content* ♥️
I love the animation and color scheme!
Happy new year and thanks for being with me in my good and bad days ^^
i feel a ton of sexual, sensual, some aesthetic, and of course platonic attraction to a lot of my friends- but never romantic.
it took me quite a while to figure out i was aromantic bc i feel platonic and sensual attraction so strongly while only sometimes accompanied with sexual and aesthetic, so it always confused me when id flirt with people so much and immediately back down when proposed with the idea or possibility of dating them
Thanks, I really needed it. Could you do a video further explaining the difference between platonic and romantic attraction? I would be really thankful.
I want to give big thank you, Psych2go!!! 💞 I've watched your channel for few months now, I've learned so many new things and some videos have helped me! I really like your many animation styles and ideas, and one big plus is that your videos has real information, some other videos doesn't, and it's annoying. I just don't know how to explain how much I love this all content you've made 🤧❣️ Thanks!
this really helps me so much... thank you for making this video
Happy New Year! I love the animation in this one :)
Hapy New Year! Glad you love the animation!
Hi! I'm a straight female and I recognized two of the five attractions mentioned in the difference between how I feel seeing attractive men VS attractive women.
When I'm attracted to a man, I often feel sexual attraction but when I see a beautiful woman I feel aesthetic attraction. I didn't know there was a word for it before but I was pretty close since I often described the beauty of these women as close to the beauty of art. These women are satisfying to look at, well proportioned, well made but I don't feel any urge to do anything sexual with them. I can tell how beautiful I find a woman but it will often be based on more "objective" criterias than for men.
So yeah, that's my experience with distinguishing these two kinds of attraction.
that is literally me, aesthetic attraction explains a lot tbh
This has a relaxing colors to it. Nice!
Thank you for making this video!!! I wish I had this when I was younger.
