Physical attractiveness is the degree to which a person's physical features are considered aesthetically pleasing or beautiful.

The term often implies sexual attractiveness or desirability, but can also be distinct from either.

There are many factors which influence one person's attraction to another, with physical aspects being one of them.

Physical attraction itself includes universal perceptions common to all human cultures, as well as aspects that are culturally and socially dependent, along with individual subjective preferences.

A magazine is a publication, usually a periodical publication, which is printed or electronically published (sometimes referred to as an online magazine).

Magazines are generally published on a regular schedule and contain a variety of content.

They are generally financed by advertising, by a purchase price, by prepaid subscriptions, or a combination of the three.

At its root, the word "magazine" refers to a collection or storage location.

In the case of written publication, it is a collection of written articles.

This explains why magazine publications share the word root with gunpowder magazines, artillery magazines, firearms magazines, and, in French, retail stores such as department stores.

An intimate relationship is an interpersonal relationship that involves physical and/or emotional intimacy.

Physical intimacy is characterized by friendship, platonic love, romantic love, or sexual activity.

While the term intimate relationship commonly implies the inclusion of a sexual relationship, the term is also used as a euphemism for a relationship that is strictly sexual.

Dating is a stage of romantic or sexual relationships in humans whereby two or more people meet socially, possibly as friends or with the aim of each assessing the other's suitability as a prospective partner in a more committed intimate relationship or marriage.

It can be a form of courtship consisting of social activities done by the couple.

The protocols and practices of dating, and the terms used to describe it, vary considerably from country to country and over time.

While the term has several meanings, the most frequent usage refers to two or more people exploring whether they are romantically or sexually compatible by participating in dates with the other.

With the use of modern technology, people can date via telephone or computer or meet in person.
