Attracted to Yourself/Parents
"Many researchers have speculated that we tend to go for members of the opposite sex who remind us of our parents. Some have even found that we tend to be attracted to those who remind us of ourselves. In fact, cognitive psychologist David Perrett, at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland, did an experiment in which he morphed a digitized photo of the subject's own face into a face of the opposite sex. Then, he had the subject select from a series of photos which one he or she found most attractive. According to Dr. Perrett, his subjects always preferred the morphed version of their own face (and they didn't recognize it as their own)."
from: http://people.howstuffworks.com/love2.htm
Think about the people you have found attracted, are they somewhat similar in appearance to yourself or your parents?
The girls I've liked have been (didn't realize it though).

I never said this was new...
Freud said every man wants to have sex with his mother. A little bit different.

Did you grow up with her? The fact that you saw her probably every day could make you attracted to girls that look like her.

Everyone asks me and my g/f if we're brother and sister. I guess it's b/c we have dark features or something. And a quick story about my last g/f. My mom doesn't know her dad and she (along with the rest of the family, and my friends) were certain that me and my g/f at the time could be related b/c of how much we acted alike and looked alike. (yes, sexual relations with both)
