I don’t know what your scenario is. You might already be dating or in a serious relationship or maybe you’re currently considering entering into a relationship. Sometimes, you think about if the two of you match and maybe you imagine that you should have more things in common; be more similar but however, you should understand that birds of a feather don’t always have to flock together.
The reason why people sometimes prefer to date people similar to themselves is because they believe they can work together or enjoy a relationship with themselves more than those unlike them.
When opposites differ
These differences help opposites attract yet you can find yourselves in relationship trouble if you try to change these differences later. Think of the examples above. What would happen if you start a committed relationship with the music lover, only to complain every time they buy a new jazz record? Conflict can ensue. Even worse, giving the pretence that you love hiking with the outdoors enthusiast only to never set foot on the trail again six months later can lead to a rocky road.
IN CONCLUSION
In a committed relationship, the gift is the ability to see the universe through the eyes of your lover and appreciate the beauty they see. So, you need to learn to understand and accept that there are ways that you are both different and celebrate your love together.
