For the study, researchers looked at the interaction of couples in public (ranging from a friend, a romantic partner and casual relationships) and then ask them about attitudes, values, prejudices, personality traits, and behaviors that are important to them.

After collecting all the data, they saw the couple who are very close, either because they've known for years or have an intimate relationship. Research shows if these couples did have the same values ​​and opinions. Even people who are very close to it though not couples have a bond that is as strong as those who are in love.
