    So some people say that oppisite attract. like how in novels the unpopular loner or ordinary MC gets popular girl. and others like's thing alike. like how villians in stories band together against the hero. And although there are probably real life examples as well i can be bothered thinking that hard.

    So which do you feel is more true? opposites attract or the other way around?

    for me it would be the other way around. as for people to relate to each other, there has to at least be something that ties them together.

    But I'm interested as to how others feel about this and if my view on the matter stands.

    It depends on their situation and everyone's situation is different.

    Its always the boobs or ass.

    You dont get to know a person/girl for her attitude or whether you are opposite etc. Its always the looks before anything else

    I don't think similarities and differences can be separated in a relationship. It's always compatibility. Sometimes, you get along together because you have similarities but there are also times where your bonds get stronger because of your differences. Like for instance, both of you like to read novels. But one of you is good at talking while the other likes to listen so you get along.
    Haha. That's just an opinion.

    I honestly don't know....

    I would like someone who I can play games with and read novels etc., sharing the same interests and understading each other well.. But I also like to experience new things. Discovering likes and dislikes and covering for each other's weaknesses~

    I think both is true. Some people need something to connect them to another. Other people are bored with similar people to them and need something/someone different that interests them~

    a scientific experiment proven that you're biologically more attracted to people whose genes compliment yours.

    it is also said that your parent's personality and family upbringing also influence your decision, esp if you're close to your opposite genre parents (eg : a daughter who is close with her dad would more likely to choose a boyfriend who resembles her father).

    about opposite attract... hmmm... personally I don't believe so since so many other things influences your decision. opposite attract theory probably becomes popular because it is more interesting to hear and/or make story with.
