Optical illusion reveals whether you have bonding issues in relationships depending on what you see first

If you are struggling with your romantic relationships, then an optical illusion would give insight into how you behave in matters of the heart.

The image was posted by Mia Yilin – known as @mia_yilin on TikTok – who regularly shares various illusions, puzzles and brainteasers with her 456,000 followers from around the world.

Viewed more than 111,000 times and collecting 127 comments, the image promises to reveal if you have bonding issues.

In a side-by-side video commentary captioned “What do you see first?”, Mia explained the theories behind each of the two objects that humans can see.

She indicated that some may see a cloud first, while others may see a fish.

The first possible object – a cloud – is said to suggest both “resilience” and “sensitivity” in a relationship.

Mia said in the footage, “When you first saw the cloud, although on the outside you may seem like a very resilient and courageous person, in reality you are quite sensitive.

“Maybe you have a heart that’s easy to break. As a result, you are often hurt by the words and actions of others.’

However, she said that seeing a cloud could also indicate commitment problems due to “high demands” when making romantic connections.

Mia continued, “You hate the idea of ​​settling for someone and have very high standards when it comes to getting into a relationship.”

So, what about those who saw a fish when they first looked at the picture?

The content creator explained that the fish represents the individual’s intention to “get the most out of life” without wasting time or attention on those who “don’t deserve it.”

Mia explained, “When you first saw the fish, you have the mindset that since life is short and we’re all going to die one day, we might as well enjoy life.”

Viewers’ comments were almost unanimous – with most confirming that they saw a fish when they first observed the illusion.

One wrote, “I saw the fish,” while another said, “Very true, fish.”

Another user applied the analogy to her own romantic circumstances and said, “I saw the fish and you’re right.”

A lone commenter posted a sad emoji as she confirmed she saw what many of the others couldn’t. She said, “Cloud.”

Others claimed to be confused while watching the optical illusion – with some people seeing both a fish and a cloud or something completely different.

One user wrote, “Both,” while another said, “I saw a fish cloud.”

A bemused commenter asked, “What if you see all things at once?” while another said, “Well…I see a cross between a fish and that fuzzy dragon thing from The NeverEnding Story.”

An end user said neutrally, “Me, I see a cat.”

Something as simple as an optical illusion can say a lot about your relationships, but even a few surprisingly simple questions can determine whether true compatibility exists.

Harvard experts revealed in 2014 exactly what you should be asking when looking for love or trying to determine compatibility with your partner.

The mathematicians have revealed three simple questions to determine if a pair has real potential.

The three central questions are: ‘Do you like horror movies?’ “Have you ever traveled alone?” and “Wouldn’t it be fun to throw it all in and live on a sailboat?”

The four experts who came up with these questions are responsible for building the dating website, OK Cupid, the fastest growing dating website.

In an interview for the book The Art of Doing: How Superachievers Do What They Do and How They Do It So Well, the site’s four founders provide insight into what they believe makes a relationship work.

And it seems they have the knowledge, because as Harvard mathematicians, they are very interested in data and wanted to build a “compatibility algorithm” site based on survey questions, according to the website Barking up the wrong tree.

And these three questions mostly seemed to determine whether you and someone else have long-term potential.
