YES!!!

There is a gravitational attraction between any two bodies/masses.

However because your mass is so small compared to the Earth's mass we only feel that attraction as a one - way force.

It has been calculated that two emptysuper=tankers (100,000 tons each) moored alongside each other, with 3 to 4 feet of fender distance betwen, has a gravitational attraction of 1 lb(pound).

Sir Isaac newton, who gave up the Laws of Universal Dynamics (gravity) , when the Apple fell on his head, perceived that not only did the Apple fall to Earth, but the Earth , infinitesimally, fell towards the Apple.
