It seems that you may have low levels of cortical arousal. In which case, it may take more to capture your affections (or attention or anything else) than the norm. Thrill-seekers and risk takers tend to have low levels of cortical arousal.

I don't know if there have been any studies on the relationship between cortical arousal and building attachments, though I'd put money on there being a negative correlation between low cortical arousal and strong interpersonal relationships.
