What about love

I was talking to a friend some time back and our topic was about seeking of life partners. She said that she realize that many people tend to look for partners who have the qualities which they are lacking in. For example, if i am a shy person, there will be a natural tendency to look for someone who is outgoing.

I guess this idea is kind of right ba. People will definitely be attracted by people whom they wish to be. But I also think that as she had said, the main point is to develop this quantities within ourselves and not look for them in someone else.
