What common appealing qualities have you noticed in those you choose as your beau or belle at the start of exploring a romantic interest? Why do those qualities appeal to you?

A recent conversation started me pondering on what it was that really attracts us to someone else. Aside from lust. And even with lust, what is it about one attractive person which inspires more lust than another attractive person?

If you believe that love at first sight is possible, what qualities does that love have that other strong attraction doesn't?
