It's true: in the soul mate we look for parents, we find out why!
Have you ever been desperate because your man was always comparing you to your mom? Have you ever wondered, instead, what are you looking for in your soul mate? And what is he looking for from you? And why does his mother seem unbeatable?
In a few, simple words: he is looking for someone who looks like his mother and you who look like your father (who could be more perfect than him for us?). So, if you happen to have a special life partner like that of the woman on video, she should have eyes like your father's to be truly perfect ...

Because we prefer a similar partner to our parents
The Glasgow researchers came to this conclusion based on research based on a sample of 300 men and women, whose partner's and parents' eye color was checked.
They discovered that there is a double chance of having a relationship with people with the same color of the eyes of the father or mother. The choice of the parent would then be linked to sexuality: women and gays, eyes of the father; men and lesbians, mother's eyes. As confirmation of the theory, the example of famous couples was given: George Clooney married Amal Alamuddin, a woman with the same brown color of her mother's eyes, Angelina Jolie, on the other hand, with Brad Pitt has found the blue of the father's eyes ... while it lasted!

So is the Oedipus / Electra complex
The Oedipus complex theorized by Freud goes back to the Greek myth in which King Oedipus unknowingly married his own mother Jocasta. It is an attitude based on a double desire, which changes if we relate to the parent of our same sex or to that of the opposite sex. The desire towards the parent of the same sex would be death and replacement, while that towards the parent of the opposite sex would be exclusive possession. The female analogue of the Oedipus complex is the Electra complex. This time the name comes from the mythological character of Electra, who after the death of her father Agamemnon at the hands of Clytemnestra, with the help of her lover Egisto, instigated her brother Orestes to avenge her father. Eventually Electra will marry Pyladas, who helped avenge Agamemnon. According to this theory, the girl, desiring possession of her father, competes with her mother and, opposing her, lays the groundwork for the development of a heterosexual personality.
It doesn't matter if your eye color isn't her mother's, if she loves you she'll do anything to be with you. For example, why not immortalize your love in a romantic couple tattoo?
