Yes, because gravity is defined by a mathematical relationship between two bodies of mass relative to their distance from each other. And because humans have mass, there must be a gravitational attraction between people. It will not be as large as the attraction between planets, but it is much more than the attraction between atoms.

Any mass has an attractive force to any other mass. For people and most other man made objects it's just so small you can't see it.
If you fill a bowl with water and then put several floating objects in it, they will all float to the side and together. Is this gravitational pull?

Yes, and any first year college Physics textbook should allow you to calculate the gravitational force of any mass, although for human bodies it is going to be very, very small.

Maybe???? Gravity is difined by mathematical relationship between two bodies of mass relative to there distance. But, one thing I question about this theory for humans is this. From my issue of Discover science magazine many years ago. Why can 100,000 peaple moving in different directions in an enclosed mall rarely bump into each other. Maybe they repel. UH.

Yes, it exists but it is very low.
An example:
Two people who weight 70 kg both and stand at 0.5 m each other will be attract by a force equivalent at the weight of an object of 0.0001333 mg

All mass emits a "field" check einsteins' unified field theory. All humans exude an electromagnetic field, some more than others. You can also find proof of this by using "korelian photography" i'm not sure of the spelling on that though. Try "corelian" not sure.

Yes, of course. There is a mutual attraction between all bodies.

Yes, but it is insignificant with respect to psychological "forces" of attraction and repulsion.
