Mystery!!

Why does it move us so much? Why are we propelled towards it? Like silence, have you noticed at times silence is so defining you sometimes wonder if something lies beyond it?
With people, why do mysterious people, especially those who are rather silent kick our gears in over drive?

What is it about the unknown that makes us engross ourselves in it? And why do we allow ourselves to be completely driven by it?

Forgive me; but a lot of my threads are going to be this way. Looking with in makes me question a lot of what happens in the outside.
Everyone's opinions is welcomed; all I ask is to stick to the topic at hand; Gracias

Wish I had an answer for you. I am always drawn into the same sort of thing :/

I believe no one has on single answer. I just love to listen and read opinions of others in this sort of topic, cumulative answers; at least you come up with an understanding.

What about the unknown and it's mysteries draw you to it?

Well apparently I have no mystery. :p

I think people like to have something undefined in general just to play out their fantasies more easily. And/or it's like a puzzle to figure out.

For me, personally, mystery is a bit overrated. I like to know people deeply not keep them at a distance.

With people; I have the same belief. I like to get to know people at a deeper level. In other aspects; for example the ocean, it's vast vicinity makes me wonder what lies in the depths of it? Will we ever be able to uncover it's greater mysteries.

Things of this nature really capture my attention. Could there be worlds unknown to us under water? What would we do if there was?

Things like this I usually ask myself. There are of course deeper reasons why I ask these questions and it's not the big old question "Are we alone." It's deeper then that.

These are the mysteries that I'm pulled towards.

I also like to get to know people on a deeper, more intense level, more than anything. I have always had a fascination with unexplained and mysterious things in life, so I guess that carries over into people I meet and relationships. Although I can only play the mysterious game with someone for so long before I get fed up and go a little crazy..

I'm the same way. Mystery is cool, but with people I tend to also loose interest if they try to uphold it for too long.
