Theory of Attractionem

'Attractionem' is the Latin term for the common modern day english word 'attraction'. Attraction is typically defined as two individuals (can be objects, people or animals) drawing nearer each other. The definition to accurately explain this theory, is the drawing closer of two people (either one sided or two).

The attraction between two (or more) people is a reoccurring segment of life. This interpersonal attraction can be done due to many reasons. One of these reasons is the one that will be discussed below. Human beings see that the magnetism between each other to be the fault of 'love' or some other humanoid emotion. However, this may not always be true.

The 'Theory of Attractionem' argues that the reason to why one may find another individual to be appealing, is due to their covetous nature. To elaborate, an agent may not find another individual to be desirable no matter how long they have been in contact for; however, the second that they are told that this individual is in fact alluring (from the voice of another), they immediately take this thought into consideration. The considering process of this new concept causes the agent to find this individual suddenly attractive, due to the simple reason of covet and wanting to maintain one's position and status in another's life.

For example:

Ryan was friends with Lucy for a number of years, and he never had any sense of desirability to be in a relationship with Lucy, other than that of pure friendship. Ryan's friend Paul meets Lucy for the first time, and states to Ryan that he finds Lucy 'pretty'. This unlocks a thought in Ryan's mind, and he slowly devours the new idea that Lucy is 'pretty'. Ryan's new idea then leads to him believing that he 'likes' Lucy. 

If noticed, Lucy only became noticeable to Ryan as a 'pretty' figure, after the thought from Paul struck him. This 'realisation' that Ryan has is due to the fact that he covet Lucy in the sense that he does not want Paul to 'take her away' from him. Which in turn allows it to be arguable that Ryan only 'likes' Lucy because he believes that his position with her is being threatened by the newly introduced Paul; and Ryan reacts to do this by modifying his feelings towards Lucy, to be that similar to Paul's and then magnifying it. 

This theory is simply a slight modification of that of Pheme's Theory, with a more precise recognition of emotions, than general ideas.
