they remain strangers. In this paper I will discuss the power of love through attraction‚ personal bonds‚ and romance. Many factors impact the type of people we are attracted to.

Some people relay on love‚ others lean towards money‚ it may be achieved through money‚ relationships‚ or even the misfortune of others‚ but why does power have the persuasion to change a person and what drives them to gain more?
