attraction
What magnets feel
Attraction is a force that draws things together—whether physical objects, people, or interest.
Gravity is an attraction between masses; magnetism attracts iron.
Between people, attraction usually means romantic or sexual interest: I felt an immediate attraction to her.
A tourist attraction draws visitors.
The word covers anything that pulls attention or desire toward itself.
