Do opposites attract? With magnets, they do. And with math, two opposites make a positive. But does this also apply to humans? Do opposites attract? Do birds of a feather flock together? Many people have used these two phrases for many years, but what do they really mean? Are these two sentences talking about appearance or personality? In truth, looking at both of these sentences, they state the opposite of each other: they contradict each other! How can both statements be true if one exists and the other also exists? “Opposites Attract” states that people with opposite appearance, personality, beliefs, attitudes and every other attribute in a human being are the perfect match for each other. “Birds of a feather flock together” states that people who are similar in every way make perfect matches. Now, not all factors of a human being have to be opposite or similar, but these sentences say that most factors are similar or opposite to each other. So the crucial question is: do opposites attract? Do people pursue those who seem opposite to them or those who are similar, and how do we determine this? The only possible answer is to do some studies and determine whether opposites really attract or not. And the studies that will be shown will conclude that opposites attract is a false statement. We will focus more on what you can see in a person rather than what you cannot see to prove the opposite attraction is false. For example, appearance is an important factor that can be seen by anyone without even speaking to it. However, there are also other factors that you can notice in another Lam 2 person, such as their personality, simply by saying hello or making conversation.
