I have noticed that most couples start looking more like each other after staying with each other for a few years I think it is because they smile at teh same things, eat the same foods, have similar life styles so their physique changes in a similar manner. What do you people out ther feel?

i think its because they have been together so long they kind of mimic each others expressions and manners.. and like you said they each and live the same way.. and i have noticed that best friends do the same thing but they dont share the same diets or anything.. *shrug*

I wouldn't say look like them physically but I would agree that a couple who has lived together for awhile will learn to eat the same food, drink the same sodas, laugh at the same things, and smile at the same things, have similar opinions. Possibly the same hair color, especially if it fades because of the sun...
In any case, that's my own opinion of it.

So far, I have seen so many couples(even newly married ones) look like each other. I really don't know how it happens, but sometimes I feel that people start liking people who look like themselves unconsciously, and married couples kind of blend into each other's personality so their outward appearance also tends to be the same.

I've noticed this too but I definitely think it's more common with certain people than others. I know that quite often when we're getting ready to go out my fiance and I end up in the same colors or sweater and jeans combo. One of us always ends up having to change because we look silly, like we did it on purpose. I've also seen lots of features on celebrity gossip sites about how Brad Pitt always ends up morphing into the person he's dating. When he was with Gwenyth Paltrow they even had similar haircuts!

I certainly hope not! I wouldn't mind being as skinny as my husband. You ever see those Slimquick commercials? Well that lady is me and the man is my husband. He eats and looses weight, I diet and can't seem to loose!
Anyways, my husband is bald, so I really hope I don't end up like that!
