Electric Charges
The Laws of Love
The laws of
love aren't set in stone - they sometimes don't apply,
But
electricity laws are always the same, and they will never lie!
Law #1
When choosing
a date, this will prove true:
You should
search for someone who is nothing like you!
Opposite
charges attract!
Law #2
Someone just
like you, you may think is great,
But too much
alike and you may start to hate!
Like
charges repel!
Law #3
Sometimes
attraction is only one-way,
But the one
who feels nothing may be captured someday!
Charged
objects attract neutral objects!
