Often, married couples who have lived together for a certain period of time hear compliments like: "you are so similar" or "you two were made for each other."
Many people perceive such phrases with surprise and go to the mirror to look for similar features, while others do not understand and do not believe in the similarity between people who are strangers by blood.
Subconscious choice of life partner
When a person is looking for a soulmate, his subconscious choice is to look for a wife or husband similar to his parents.
This happens unintentionally and unconsciously, on a psycho-emotional level.
A person is very dependent on his relatives, his subconscious wants to see a person who is close in spirit, hair color, perhaps it will be character or just gait. In some couples, similarity to each other is manifested at the initial stage of the relationship, but it is significantly noticeable when the spouses have long happy years in marriage.
Sometimes people choose a second half that is already similar to themselves, and not to their relatives. Dimples on a smile or, for example, an oval face, maybe these are the same habits and views on life and the future.
Such couples have children who are absolute copies of their parents, not their grandparents.
Lovers copy each other like a printer
When communicating with the same partner for a long time, similar facial expressions or copied words from the speech of the other half imperceptibly appear in behavior.
This imitation of each other does not happen intentionally, but because of emotional closeness.
Lovers reflect each other not only in communication, this happens in absolutely all actions and lifestyle. It is not for nothing that there is a common phrase in society: "two loving people, as one whole."
If one of them changes something in their life, for example, gives up a bad habit and switches to healthy eating, then the other one immediately does the same. Therefore, over time, spouses resemble each other like brother and sister.
General life experience
Married life is a whole interesting book, which is full of surprises, adventures, and also numerous sad and happy events.
The lovers lived through all those emotions and feelings together, led the same lifestyle, so even wrinkles can appear in the same places in both.
Over time, lovers develop the same immunity, since nutrition, the presence or absence of sports and rest, all this is done together and daily.
Psychologists claim that it is love and dependence on each other that make two people similar, like a reflection in a mirror.
It is a happy relationship, in which there is: understanding, respect and trust, that helps lovers become one whole. And that marriage, in which discord and quarrels make people absolutely strangers and distant from each other.
It has previously become known how manipulators use lies to easily deceive others.
