Scientifically it has not been proven to have any validity.
Having said that, there may be something of an expectation (?) of the mind with a connection to survival; the same as persons living in close proximity (i.e. Family and very close friends) are often able to "read" your emotional state to the point where it really is the current thought you have. Again I am thinking it is a survival/ hunting mechanism.
