About this listen

 “Birds of a feather flock together”, the old saying goes. But does that apply when it comes to romantic relationships? After all, we also say that opposites tend to attract, an idea which has been sold to us through Disney fairytales, romcoms and countless love songs over the years. But in 2023, a group of British and American scientists decided to put this notion to the test, by delving into a vast pool of existing data on the traits of couples. They published their findings in Nature Human Behaviour in August 2023. What exactly were they looking into then? So which saying bears true then? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
