I may be a Yankee but I do have some of that gentile southern woman in me as well

Bonnie said:Do opposites attract, or is it compatability?
Is it a bit of both??
Well, initially, most times it's the appearance. Something that takes your breath away, makes you mildly smile, or something amuses you, like someone smeared in paint or garden dirt. One PBS special I saw said smell had something to do with attraction.Bonnie said:Saw an interesting expose on PBS regarding attraction done in very scientific terms to see exactly if any one thing was the real key to attraction. Anyway this particular study seemed to suggest it was compatability that attracted and it was also compatability that worked long term.

What happens when a person doesn't think there's any gaps?mom4 said:......Like Clay said, it's very good to have a partner who fills the gaps in your own personality......
Too true. I've heard more men say this when dating a younger woman, "The sex is great but we have nothing to talk about when we're done." It's rarely more than just a fling...... But people can get turned off really quickly if there isn't something other than looks to attract.
Any gaps in his own personality, or any gaps in his partner's?Joz said:What happens when a person doesn't think there's any gaps?
I submit that person would be difficult to get along with.Joz said:What happens when a person doesn't think there's any gaps?

And we should be so luckyJoz said:I meant in themselves. People who behave like they have everything to give but need nothing in return. They're doing you a favor.
That person might probably tend to pick a mate who was very humble, maybe very admiring of him. TWO conceited people probably wouldn't last long together.Joz said:I meant in themselves. People who behave like they have everything to give but need nothing in return. They're doing you a favor.
So then you think opposites would subconciously be chosen to fill in those gaps? That two people vying for attention (like actors) just wouldn't work?mom4 said:That person might probably tend to pick a mate who was very humble, maybe very admiring of him.

Yes, in some ways. I don't think we can pick just ONE characteristic, though. People might consider themselves to be "opposites" based on a few personality attributes, when in reality, they have just as many similar attributes. They just may not notice the similarities as much.Joz said:So then you think opposites would subconciously be chosen to fill in those gaps?

Just out of curiosity, what do you mean by that?mom4 said:My parents, though had some problems. My mother had almost NO ambition. She is motivated almost SOLELY by relationships.
