Psychologists study couples with notable physical differences, challenging our preference for similar partners. Attraction to differences may arise from compensatory desires; for example, a tall person may appreciate a shorter partner’s agility, while the shorter one values their security. Weight differences may confront personal insecurities or societal norms. These relationships often represent subconscious efforts to find balance, where contrasting traits compensate for perceived deficiencies.
