'''Familial attraction''' is a form of [[tertiary attraction]] based on a desire for a strong familial attachment, or a desire for emotional closeness with another by virtue of them being [[chosen Family|family]].

Familial attraction is a form of tertiary attraction based on a desire for a strong familial attachment, or a desire for emotional closeness with another by virtue of them being family. This can refer to the relationship one has with their actual family, but it can also be the desire for emotional closeness from those unrelated to oneself in a way that that mimics a traditionally/idealized familial bond. This may be seen as a chosen family.[1]
