Do opposites really attract?

Or do birds of a feather flock together?

The general understanding of the law of attraction is that like-energies attract to one another, i.e. birds of a feather flock together. But so often people say, “Opposites attract.” We see a shy girl with an extroverted guy or a victim with a perpetrator. Though I write about the Drama Triangle, where people play victims, I am actually referring to real victims of actual abuse in this instance.

How do we square this supposed inconsistency?

Do you think opposites attract? I think on the surface we may get that impression, but in reality, people are still attracting similar vibrations from their environment. I’m going to relay personal experiences further below, for this reason, I am putting up a paywall here.
