Herbst et al: "My Head Says Yes But My Heart Says No: Cognitive And Affective Attraction As A Function Of Similarity To The Ideal Self"
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. The intrinsic connection between the ideal self (IS) and the interchangeable aspects of attraction and repulsion is, according to Herbst et al, what makes a person initially attracted to someone with his or her own similar traits but then ultimately come to reject those same similarities when the love interest surpasses their IS. My Head Says Yes But My Heart Says No: Cognitive And Affective Attraction As A Function Of Similarity To The Ideal Self delves into the cognitive and affective elements of attraction as they relate to the level of one's own IS, basing one's choices of lover interests upon the coupling of comparisons and conflicts that serve to contradict each other; as one's partner meets up to and then surpasses one's IS, this tendency to exceed proves disastrous to one's self-image due to the inability to live up to the newly raised bar of upward comparison.
