It is not easy to define what "chemistry" is between two people. Sometimes, a look, a conversation or just the presence of someone else can make us think we have found the right person. But not every sensation that involves us is necessarily a sign of a romantic relationship.
Here are two factors that we often experience as "chemistry", but which we should not confuse with it:
1. Physical attraction
Have you ever talked to someone extremely attractive and after the conversation, you thought: "This person is right for me"? If so, I'm sorry, but maybe it's just your body reacting to the sight of them.
Physical attraction can make us feel excitement, elation or even an increased heart rate - but that doesn't mean we've found our better half.
In most cases it is simply a natural reaction to beauty. Our eyes signal to the mind that we have seen someone attractive and the body begins to bombard us with emotions. But these emotions don't always translate into deep feelings or a lasting relationship.
So before you think you've found your soulmate just because someone made your heart beat faster, wait to see if there's more to your bond than just looks.
2. Kindness
We've all thought at least once, "Is he flirting with me, or just being nice?" A compliment, a small gift or even a warm smile can make us think we're flirting.
In fact, acts of kindness make us feel well-being, calm and happy - but that doesn't necessarily mean we've formed a romantic connection. Most people are just being polite, with no other intentions.
Therefore, do not confuse every good deed with flirting or romantic "chemistry". Yes, kindness can be a good start to a relationship, but it's good to be careful and not make hasty assumptions.
How to recognize real "chemistry"?
Romantic chemistry doesn't happen instantly, and it's not just the result of good looks or gestures. It builds over time and requires a real emotional connection, where both people feel heard, understood and accepted.
So the next time you feel something special about someone, ask yourself: Am I reacting to something real, or just a pretty sight or a good deed?
