Stacey Norman and J Sbu had an intense relationship question to ask KZN. Do opposites attract? To help answer this question, they called resident Spark Tester Trav Lloyd who believes that opposites don't actually attract. Studies have consistently shown that people are more likely to be attracted to those who share similar qualities, attitudes, and values. Similarity is a strong predictor of attraction, research has also explored the role of sociodemographic dimensions, such as education, ethnicity, and age. Studies have shown that online daters are more likely to contact and respond to individuals who share similar backgrounds, highlighting the importance of similarity in relationship formation.
