Is this sentence wrong? Ella te ha sido atraído últimamente. Or just better to say it this way? Ella ha estado atraída a ti últimamente. |

Yes. It is not stating anything in Spanish, and one has to guess asto what it means If it was: "Ella te ha sido atractiva ultimamente" you would be saying: She has been attractive to you lately. You see, to be attracted and to be attractive is different. Quote:
