CHAPTER 11

Matching hypothesis is the idea that people tend to be friends with and end up in romantic relationships with people who are similar to them. Though now culture is turning more towards being compatible with the other person because of how much diversity there is, it is easier to get along with someone that you are similar with. The idea of opposites ending up together is not true because of how hard it can be to find common interests and ideas and not end up fighting because of those differences. 

These girls end up close friends in the movie, and their friendship started because they looked so much alike. Growing up, many of my friends looked very similar to me, to the point that teachers would get us confused. I never looked much like my brother, but because we had similar interests and we were raised the same way, we have been close from when we were little, even if we fight a lot. When people are similar, they get along easier, especially when there are similar interests and views.
