Opposites Attract

o you have a lover? What is it about them that you love so much? Do you even know? Most people who are in love cannot tell why they fell for the person they are in love with in the first place (for better or worse). Most of the other people who are not in love, desperately want to find love, but keep running into dead end personalities. However, did you know that there is a very scientific principle that governs (quite succinctly) every single human attraction? If more people understood the science of attraction, then women would date fewer jerks and men would have better luck finding those women who could really appreciate them. This particular post seeks to explore how romantic attraction works at the scientific level using a popular new discovery in human psychology which is based on the ubiquitous principle that opposites attract. Once you understand that love is inextricably selfish, it becomes exponentially easier to understand how attraction actually works. If you’ve already found love, this entry will better enable you to appreciate the flaws in your chosen lover.

In fact, even though every single “chick flick” from the 1940’s right back to the 21st century shares exactly the same plot, studios keep churning them out and updating them as though there’s some kind of cookie cutter production line designed explicitly for such. Love is the subject of gossip columns, television, interactive entertainment, magazines, toys - you name it. We’re all obsessed with it. But why are people so fascinated by love? The answer is pretty simple. What most people fail to realise is that they’re not so much enraptured about love as much as they are about themselves. Love is the single most subtle form of self interest, and the only reason why people love is because people are intrinsically selfish. Love is selfish, and if you read on, I will clearly demonstrate how.
