Connection (11)

I personally think its both, the physical connection is like a magnet, causes that intial attraction and the emotional one is needed to seal the deal.

A physical connection is just that...connected physically.
There are only so many ways two people can be connected physically.
Many of them cannot be done in the course of a day.
Thus, the physical connection must be broken to do things.
As proof, imagine waking up and holding someone's hand all day never letting go, even once.
Connection is not the same as compatibility.

Physical compatibility is more than touch. It involves all physical senses and the compatibility they have with your own desires.

Likewise, an emotional connection is not really a connection. Empathy gives us what we call a connection but in reality we can never truly feel what another person feels. We imagine what they feel from the physical signals they give us. We can, however, get it wrong.
Emotional compatibility is when we share empathy with each other that fits our emotional desires.

There are other compatibilities that we share besides emotional and physical that make up our impression of compatibility with others.
Spiritual
Intellectual
Professional
To name a few.

Human beings are complex creatures.
We tend to make things more complex than they need to be.
When we are compatible with another, we try to label it and put a sticker on it so we can understand what it is we are feeling. When that happens and we are wrong, we tend to focus on one certain aspect as desirable and get hurt when it doesn't work out the way we planned.

Only you know what is desirable to you.
Look for someone that is desirable and see if you are desirable to them too.
Nobody is going to fit your list precisely and you will not fit anyone else's list precisely.
The best you can hope for is a majority match.
There will always be something that doesn't sync. Its up to you and that person to decide if those compatible things are more important than the out-of-sync things.
