They can have all the unique pairings in the world. Do Ironmans and read books, be hot like fire and generous. Be strong and tender at heart. Refined and elegant with an uncanny love for Kinder chocolate.

It’s not even that.

It’s the attention they bring. Their deeper understanding of things. All the little things they notice and register. All the little gestures.

It’s how they enjoy your company. How they make you feel. How they stimulate your brain, how you manage to cross wavelengths. How they look at you with some sort of slight wonder. Their gaze.

How they see things others won’t or don’t really care to see. Your tired psyche, the assertiveness behind the gentleness. The contrarian and authoritarian tendencies. ^^

That’s why you fall for them.

That’s why it’s pretty hard to unfall as well.
