I have recently written an article about whether opposites attract, and if so, how does this relate to the fact that people also are attracted to those who are like themselves? -> http://www.evannassau.com/do-opposites-attract/

Obviously neither of those statements is true. Everyone’s looking for different things in their partners and there’s no rule for that.

i always feel like if there is a big discrepency in attractiveness in a couple, there is probably something else weird going on….like one of them is way smarter or richer.

I think opposites can and do attract.. but nor am i saying that people who are alike dont attract, i think it depends on who the individual is and what their personal likes and dislikes include.. and like Ashley said, if the two people are opposites, this doesn’t necessarily mean that everything about and between them is opposite.

Yes. Too many things to consider here. Opposites attract or individuals seeking others who share things in common… these generalizations don’t cover everything we have learned about human sexuality, including pheremones or culture.

There is plenty of evidence that couples show a high-degree of correlation of many surprising variables. Even things like finger length.

At the same time, there’s also evidence that in other areas people are attracted to those that have different and complementary traits, for example in immune systems.

As usual when applying science to human beings, simplistic questions lead to wrong answers!

Now if you want an unscientific dating compatibility tip, I’d say look for lots of shared values, some shared interests, and some complementary strengths.

Though of course your unconscious will anyway probably direct you towards someone whose immune system smells nice to you and who looks a bit like someone you loved as a child.

I think opposites attract. Consider an only children. When someone is an only child they most likely get their way all of the time. If someone gets married to another child they are going to probably going to cause some problems. but whos to say everyone is different and in some cases the couple might both be the baby of the birth order or the older responsible one.

I think that in a way opposites do attract. For example my sister in law is really quiet and my brother is really loud, but yet they get along great and are happily married. Its the little things that they have in common that matter. Such as they both grew up in the country, both come from a big family, and both are sports orientated. You also just can’t judge a book by its cover… you have to get to know people and go from there,
