China Naming Network - Auspicious day query - In the eight-character test, the other half looks scary, and the eight-character measures the appearance of the other half.

In the eight-character test, the other half looks scary, and the eight-character measures the appearance of the other half.

The phenomenon that the other half of the eight-character test looks too accurate and scares the couple's face has been mentioned all over the world, which means that the looks between two people make people feel like lovers, or they will become more and more similar after being together for a long time.

Why are there so many people who look alike together? Is this a coincidence?

Although there is a saying that "friends don't get together", psychologist Justin Lehmiller said that many people will be attracted to people who make them feel familiar, but this is probably a conscious process. Loehmueller pointed out that in terms of intimacy, some characteristics are suitable for two people to oppose, such as dominance and obedience, but generally speaking, even if we don't know, "what we are familiar with is usually what we like and will attract us."

This phenomenon also extends to appearance. He said, "You are very familiar with your appearance, so seeing other people with similar characteristics may also increase your goodwill because of familiarity."

The study of 20 13 confirmed this statement. The researchers showed the subjects photos of the other half of their faces, but these faces were modified to include other people's facial features, which may come from other people's faces or from the subjects' own faces. Both male and female subjects think that faces with their own characteristics are the most attractive.

Another earlier study used synthetic images to get similar results, and also found that people are subconsciously attracted to the characteristics of heterosexual parents. Letting the photos of parents of the opposite sex flash across the screen quickly will make the subjects feel that other people's photos are more attractive, which means that they are subconsciously influenced by familiar faces. A study on mixed-race children in 2022 found that mixed-race children are easily attracted to people similar to their parents (regardless of gender) and are more likely to establish close relationships with such people.

Loehmueller said that this preference for parents may be scary, but it is actually no problem, not even surprising; This is probably a completely subconscious process, because we naturally associate comfort with attraction. "These qualities may be reassuring because you are familiar with them."

Couples with faces are subconsciously attracted to each other, or it may be because of genes.

Many studies have found that the genetic similarity between partners is usually higher than that of strangers, and the predictive factors such as height and education are similar. There is also some preliminary evidence that people may be attracted to people with similar ancestors, at least for white couples, because most early studies focused on whites. These tendencies may also be the cause of couples' faces.

Ben Domingo, an assistant professor at Stanford Research Institute, studied the genetic similarity between partners and friends. He said that people with similar genes usually find each other because of the similarity of culture and environment.

Du said, "It may be that the similarity of genes makes people in a similar environment, or it may be that other factors make people in a similar environment, which is related to the similarity of genes. Once you are in these environments "-such as universities or residential areas-"you will also look for the other half there. "

Online dating has increased the diversity of partners.

Nowadays, people get married later, go further for education and work, and have a better chance to find the other half with different backgrounds. Lemiller said, "With so many different choices and a larger community, people may be attracted by more features."

Duminger said that online dating has also begun to bring about changes. He explained that potential partners are just a finger away, and we no longer need to look for partners only in our social circle or nearby environment. Some experts pointed out that the screening function of dating applications allows users to sort by race or order, thus strengthening prejudice and isomorphism; However, other studies show that online dating increases the diversity of partners in general. The US Census Bureau found that between 20 12 and 2022, about 10% of newly married couples were interracial partners. The Pew Research Center's estimate is even higher: in 2022, nearly 20% of newly married couples in the United States were interracial couples, compared with 7% in 1980.

However, Loehmueller said that when marriage and dating are constantly changing, it is difficult to predict whether the phenomenon of couples' faces will fade in the next few years, mainly because it is always difficult to know the attraction.

He said, "Attraction is a very complicated phenomenon involving many factors. Similarity may attract you to find someone at first, but it doesn't mean that you will have a happy and intimate relationship. Attraction is not easy to predict. "

The above is related to the fact that the other half of the eight-character test looks scary, and it is about the sharing of marriage. After reading the eight characters to measure the appearance of the other half, I hope this will help everyone!
