Who looks alike assembles or opposites attract each other?

The clash of sayings

You have heard them so much that they have emptied themselves of their meaning and become nothing more than market clichés. The sayings “Who looks alike assembles” and “Opposites attract each other” effectively lose their credibility, each having its exact opposite to counterbalance it. However, if such sayings are so often repeated it is because they still have a background of truth. But in this case what should you follow so as not to be mistaken in your love choices?

Birds of a feather flock together ( Who looks alike assembles or opposites attract each other )

It is the one that seems the most logical, the most rational. As a guarantee of compatibility, in short. And that, dating sites have understood it well. Today, they offer you to meet love on strict criteria of resemblance: origins, religion, political party, etc. And why not by blood type while we’re at it? Obviously, the negative side of these targeted meetings is that they do not promote the mixing of cultures and the discovery of the unknown. The advantage is that they make it possible to satisfy a criterion on which you are sometimes not ready to give in. So, is looking alike like it forming a solid couple?

Sharing a passion, having tastes in common, yes, it creates a complicity and allows you to indulge together in activities that delight you as much as the other. But sometimes, too great similarities between the two members of the couple can become a real ordeal. This is the case when the couple works together for example. Being able to live with each other 24 hours a day is not given to everyone! And often, what brought you closer to your half becomes what takes you away from it…

The danger when you and your partner are too similar is also to create a relationship that stagnates. If you are both as shy as each other for example, you will naturally tend to withdraw into yourself and will have a hard time evolving. Conversely, if you are two big mouths, beware of bloodshed that could end up getting the better of your couple!

Opposites attract ( Who looks alike assembles or opposites attract each other )

This sounds more exciting than the all-too-monotonous “Who Looks alike assembles.” To be tempted by your opposite is to take a risk and feel the vertigo of the unknown. In real life many couples seem to have built on this model, both physically and in terms of their personalities: the big black with his little blonde, the cougar with his jeunot, the manual with the intellectual, etc.

Such relationships are often volcanic! The differences of background, religion or character create many twists and turns on the way of lovers… At least it has the merit of keeping the routine at bay. But is it really enough?

The strength of these lovers that everything opposes is that they complement each other. Thus, the neurotic will be soothed by the simplicity of a partner who does not ask himself thirty thousand questions. But too much disparity can also be fatal. The two members of a solid couple are obliged to have commonalities. Without it, they can not really understand each other and once past the first months of passion, everything tends to fester.

The manual reproaches the intellectual for remaining cloistered in front of a computer while he himself performs physical work. The intellectual retorts that it is his brain that works and there it is the fight assured with great reinforcements of “You can not understand.” Differences in background and religion are often the most difficult to overcome, with everyone’s family weighing heavily in the balance.

We mix everything and we start again! ( Who looks alike assembles or opposites attract each other )

The truth is that neither of these two sayings alone can form the basis of a lasting relationship. Paradoxically, it takes a bit of both to make a couple hold. The two lovers must be different enough to learn from one another and thus build something together. Their compatibility is made possible if they complement each other; in other words, if one is able to overcome the weaknesses of the other by its own strength and vice versa. The important thing is to create a balance. And for this balance to continue, we also need commonalities. But not just any commonalities.

The important points, those that allow to move forward such as the conception of life, of love. “To love is to look together in the same direction.” This saying is as old as the world but it is not so snish as it seems. Whether two lovers are considering a tidy life with two children, a minivan and a golden retriever, or whether they want to go around the world, swinging or living as hermits, as long as they consider it together, their differences do not matter.
