    It’s something you just feel, even if it’s hard to explain. Things naturally flow, and even silence isn’t awkward with the right person.

    You can talk about anything, you’re in sync, you make eye contact, and sometimes you even mirror each other’s actions.

    For me, it’s all about the feeling and the vibe, you just know. If you’ve spent enough time with someone, you’ll definitely sense if there’s chemistry there.

      What do you mean by mirroring each other’s actions?

      Also does this have a more romantic quality to it or do you feel it with friends too for example

        Mirroring is when you naturally match the other person’s behavior, imitating their gestures, speech patterns, and so on, but it’s not the same as copying someone. It usually happens when you’re comfortable with each other and often goes unnoticed by both of you. I believe it’s mostly a subconscious action.

        It can have a romantic element to it, but you can also feel it with close friends. And mirroring alone doesn’t define chemistry, it’s more about the overall feeling, as I mentioned.
