Great minds think alike?

I always think it weird when you're walking through the park and you see a person walking their dog and you think to yourself..wow that person really looks like their dogs or that dog really looks like their owner.
Many people say the more time you spend with someone the more you start to resemble them. If this is true about people and their pets what about couples? I read a study the other day psychologist Robert Zajonc, he conducted an experiment to test this statement. He looked at pictures of couples taken when they were newlyweds and then pictures of those same couples 20 some years later. The results showed that the couples had grown to resemble each other more and more over time. The happier the couple the more they had increased in their physical similarity.

Now I'm not saying Brian and I resemble each other, yet anyways, but I have seen a few resemblances of us start to come out in each other. A few weeks ago Brian and I where having lunch with a couple of his friends and I used some nerd phrase Brian would usually use and his friends told me that sounded like something Brian would say. Another thing that happens all the time is Brian and I order the exact same thing at restaurants all the time! Even if we at a place with a wide variety like Applebees, we get the same thing. Finally the most disturbing thing that's been happening we wear the same t-shirts! Take a look at these examples.

I don't know if this mean my fashion sense is going down or his is going up or if maybe we just really love each other and are trying to resemble each other! :)
Great minds think alike?
Ya Mon!

We don't plan this!
