This Could Explain Why Some Couples Look Alike
A new study in Australia found we tend to be more attracted to people who look like us, and have similar facial features.
Do you ever look at a couple and think they look similar? There may be a reason for it. A new study in Australia found we tend to be more attracted to people who look like us, and have similar facial features. Researchers recorded over 2,000 speed-dates. It had each person rate their date’s “facial attractiveness” and found they gave the highest ratings to dates with similar features. For example, someone with green eyes might find other green-eyed people attractive. Researchers think when someone looks like you, you’re immediately more at ease, and more likely to feel a natural connection.
