Chemistry

[Cutiepie41]

I was chatting with a friend the other about chemistry between 2 people and if 1 person feels it does the other automatically feel it too?
I don’t mean when you fancy someone when it could just be one sided.Im talking about when you touch that person and it’s like an electric shock and you feel like your heart has missed a beat.
Reason I’m asking is I’ve met someone and when he touched my arm I felt like there was a chemistry between us , I felt like I had a electric shock running through me, and I went weak and that’s only happened 3times in my life whereas I’ve fancied way more that 3 people in my lifetime!

so if I felt that did he feel it too? is that what chemistry is ? TIA for those who took time to read my post !!

You are not physically connected. It is chemicals circulating in your organs that are doing this. Not his. His touch is the sun that makes the water, carbon, hydrogen and sugars in your body work together to photosynthesise a big red blush across your cheeks.

The sun gets nothing back from a ripening lollo rosso growing on the side of a hill in Provence. That is how I see it.

No sorry I don't think that's how it works 😬

We're there any other signs at the time like eye contact or smiles/laughter it's hard to tell. I've definitely felt what you describe but never acknowledged it with the other person.

Yes we feel very at ease, laughing and flirting and when I took his glass for a refill I literally felt like an electric shock

Meant to say my hand brushed his when I took the glass off him and the physical touch sent an electric shock through me it was very intense

It CAN be mutual but not always.
Evidence is, how many times has one person been head over heel or completely infatuated with someone only to later realise how one sided and disillusioned they had been? I've had this guy confess his love to me telling how I must feel it too because I did this and that and he wasn't even on my radar. Have you seen dinner date and how many times the guy says yeah we have a connection, good chemistry and then when they interview the other party they say the old line: I think we'll stay in touch as friends.

Some people are just very charismatic and attractive. If he is objectively not that attractive and isn't charismatic then maybe there is something there.If he is good looking by objective standards he might just be a good flirt.

The only sure thing here, is that your body on an animalistic level likes his scent. I would look at your history and see the times that this happened what was the outcome? How many times could you tell if someone fancied you looking back at your past? Because you might be brilliant in spotting sexual tension between others but absolutely useless when it's about you.

Lastly, you can feel chemistry and it can be mutual but it doesn't mean the other person will want to take it further for all sorts of reasons.

It's exciting, isn't it? Amazing feeling - I've had it twice.

But it's not necessarily reciprocated, it's just your own body reacting.

If he also attracted to you, great.

Have to say, I had it with my ex-husband and it was not a good relationship for me, so, don't mythologise it. It's just hormones.
