Have you evr walked down a street say a couple holding hands and thought to yourself 'oh my god! what did that guy ever see in that girl' or vice versa? So what attracts a person to another?
Physical attraction
Research has proven that people of the same attractive level will go for a partner of equal level.A good example would be Angelina Jolie and Brad pitt. It is summed up in this equatin physical attractiveness x the probability of acceptance.However people who really love each other truly believe that beauty trancends the physical.
Attitudes
This is probably where the term 'airhead' or 'bimbo' can about from. Yes the person may be stunnigly good looking but that can only make up for so much.If the person doesnt have an attitude thats similar attitudes to yours or doesnt think they way you do, there are more likely to be serious arguments then sweet memories in the future.Take me for instance, I once had a friend that was the sweetest boy you could find.He was nice, extremely patient and understanding.However he's old fashioned and traditional way of thinking started to get in the way of our friendship and before long we couldn't see eye to eye.What I once thought where his good traits were now annoying and had told him he should live in a cave and stay there.Therefore to me I don't realy get the whole opposites attract thing.
Social and cultural background
Research has found that people of the same economic background are more likely to be attracted to each other. Also certain demographic characteristics, including religious background, political orientation and socio economic status.However in our society , man are expected to earn more then women are so that they are still the 'man of the house'
There are of course countless more factors, but these three to me are these are main first three everyone looks at. Therefore in conclusion I don't believe that opposites attract but incontrary 'birds of a feather will flock together'
