A couple spend years together and become similar to each other in how they think and see the world. Ideas are sent back and forth and in all this a unified outlook is realised, if not, then perhaps this would lead to a break-up. Can it also work with form, as in, do couples over time become to look like each other, independent of diet and life-style. So, my partner has a long pointed nose, and I can sometimes see that my snub nose is changing somewhat towards her shape of nose. It is the actuality of two organic forms merging towards some kind of symmetry. Each a mirror to the other. This can't be so, can it?
