-Birds of a feather flock together for individuals in emerging adulthood as well as for those in others points of the life span. Relationships that last tend to be similar in personality, ethnicity, religion, intelligence, and physical attractiveness.
-Similarity breeds content because of consensual validation, the feeling that others who are the same on a number of characteristics reaffirm the way people see the world.
