A strange attraction compels me to hold your things most dear, yet I know it not, and feel no warmth in my holding. My brothers and I stick close together until one faces me, and then is pushed away.

Common Wrong Answers

“A vacuum cleaner”

A vacuum cleaner does hold things, but it does so through suction and requires an active process, unlike a magnet which passively attracts certain metals.

“A safe”

A safe is designed to protect and hold valuable items, but it does not have the magnetic properties or the concept of attraction mentioned in the riddle.

“A black hole”

While a black hole has a strong gravitational pull and can attract objects, it is not a physical object that holds things in a way similar to a magnet, and it does not stick close to 'brothers'.
