The dog bone vs pretzel theory...?

Question

This is a snippet from an article, I included the link if anyone wants to view but my question is what do you think of this guys theory? Do men really think like this and do people really need to be careful to match this way?

"At twenty-four, Jay McPhee ended our relationship of two years explaining that, while his preferred model of love was “The Dog Bone” — namely two separate, independent entities bound by a long, sturdy bridge (he said “long” twice, as in “long, long sturdy bridge”) — my ideal was what he called “The Pretzel,” where two people are twisted together, fused in several places, preventing any opportunity for individuality. Or escape."

Answer 1

Hmm, dog bone versus pretzel...that would make sense in generalizing a lot of men and women.

(Most) men like to be independent but still connected to their partners. (Most) women like to know that they are completely in sync with their partners. I don't know if a dog bone matched with a pretzel would work or not...or if that guy was just giving her a nice analogy before breaking up with her. lol.

Now I'm wondering what I am.

lol.
