Liking Someone...

[ＥＲＯＳ]

.
We often like someone when we see little bits of ourselves in them. If they believe the same things we do, or like the same things we like, it feels good. It's like they understand us.
It's even more special when we see our own personality in someone we've never met before. It makes us feel like we're not so strange, and it can make them feel safer to be around. It's like finding someone who just gets you.
When we see these similarities, we often start to like that person. It feels familiar, and we tend to like things that feel familiar. Also, if someone is like us, we might think they'll like us too, and that makes us like them more. It's easier to talk to people who are like us.
But liking someone is not just about being the same. We also like people for other reasons, like if we think they're attractive, if we see them often, or if we know they like us. Our background and what we want in a friend or partner also matter.
So, seeing parts of ourselves in someone else is a big reason why we might start to like them. It helps us connect. But it's just one of many things that make us like who we like.

The recognition of ourselves in another person can be a significant catalyst for liking them, acting as a bridge to connection. But it's just one piece of the larger puzzle that makes us drawn to certain individuals. It's a beautiful interplay of familiarity, validation, and other diverse factors.

So true, EROS.
When we see a part of ourselves in someone, it feels like we’ve found a kindred spirit.
