Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Some researchers have suggested that similarity causes attraction. Others acknowledge that people may be more likely to have friends and partners who are similar to themselves simply because of accessibility: people are more likely to associate with people who are similar to themselves.

Detailed explanation-2: -Reciprocity of liking (also called reciprocity of attraction or reciprocal liking) is a particular type of reciprocity that refers to the tendency for people to like others who express lik-ing for them. Reciprocity of liking is a key prin-ciple of attraction; at times, it has even been called a cultural truism.

Physical attractiveness influences social opportunities and the way one is perceived. As acquaintanceship moves toward friendship, similarity of attitudes and interests greatly increases liking.
