"La quantité de désir érotique que nous ressentons a moins à voir avec les modèles d'attractivité et plus à voir avec notre volonté de prendre des risques."
— Esther Perel

Simplified Meaning:
When it comes to feeling romantic or sexual attraction, it's not just about how good someone looks. It's more about how much we're open to taking chances and trying new things. Think about a time when you felt very attracted to someone who maybe wasn't the most traditionally handsome or beautiful person. What excited you was the thrill of stepping into the unknown or doing something unexpected, like talking to a stranger or sharing a secret. This idea can help us remember that being open to different experiences and facing our fears can often lead to more intense feelings of desire. So, if you want to feel more passion in your relationships, try to be braver and open to risk, rather than just focusing on appearances.
