Liars Avoid Eye Contact??
Habitual liars actually make more eye contact that honest people. Why?? Because they know that we look for this behavior. – Joe Navarro (spy catcher)
Men aren’t Romantic??
Many people think men are less romantic than women. Yet fall in love faster (because they are so visual); men tend to be more dependent on their girlfriends or wives for intimacy; men are two times more likely to kill themselves when a relationship ends; and men show just as much activity in brain regions associated with romantic passion. – Helen Eisher (of human bonding)
Opposite attract
A persistent myth is that in romance, opposite attract. In fact, one of the most powerful predictors of liking is similarity, regardless of the type of personality, trait, value, interest, or physical appearance.
- andrew galperin (the blind matchmaker)
