gravitating
Pulled toward something
Gravitating is moving toward something as if pulled by gravity.
Objects gravitate toward massive bodies; people gravitate toward ideas, places, or other people they find attractive: She found herself gravitating toward the quieter guests at the party.
The word implies natural, almost inevitable movement rather than deliberate choice.
