What you see first in this optical illusion reveals if you compromise a lot or are looking for love

AT first glance, an elaborate illustration shows one of two common images.

What you see first could tell whether you’re a social butterfly who makes decisions with friends in mind, or if you’re lonesome and looking for more love in your life.

The illusion was shared on TikTok by content creator Charles Meriot, who explained what the illusion can reveal about the viewers’ personalities.

Meriot displayed the illustration behind him. “What did you see first?” he asked.

A tree trunk on the left-hand side holds baby birds in a nest, with adult birds swooping in to feed them.

“If you saw the birds and the trees first, it means that you yield to others and try to make compromises often,” Meriot explained.

“That’s why you’re so frank and sociable.”

But the leaves and birds on the right side of the frame could also be interpreted as something else.

Those details display a woman’s face in partial profile, gazing languidly into the distance.

“If you saw the lady first, it means that you want to have more love in your life,” Meriot continued.

Those who notice the eyes, nose and lips of the woman at first glance are likely to be “looking for social or romantic relationships.”

In the comments section, thousands of viewers reported back on what they saw, and how accurate Meriot’s assessment was.

“Saw the lady which is accurate cause I’m very lonely,” one person admitted.

“I saw both at the same time,” a different viewer wrote.

“I saw the lady first but I am NOT looking for love,” another insisted.

Some viewers could see just one of the images, no matter how hard they tried, and even accused Meriot of “making fun of them.”

“Can I just ask where the heck is the lady?” a confused viewer asked.

“I saw a lady with bird eyes and a mouth,” one person wrote. “What does that mean?”
