Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The matching hypothesis suggests that people tend to choose partners who are similar to themselves in attractiveness and other assets. This theory has been supported by research showing that couples who are similar in these areas tend to have more stable and successful relationships. It does not suggest that opposites attract or that talkative people seek quiet mates. It also does not support the idea that couples who are mismatched on attractiveness and other assets have relationships as long-lasting as other couples.
