Opposites Attract. Will it last?

Yes I have heard about some couples who were the complete opposite. It was like a love/hate type of relationship and they seemed to last for a very long time. However, if one of them started to recognize wanting a bit more then what they were getting out of the relationship then they began to point out the faults of the other. This slowly but surely does ruin a relationship. Sad on how some cannot remember that this is how they met the person and accepting them that way means they were not going to instill/demand changes.

The first longterm relationship that I had was a relationship where we were extremely different. We had different personalities, different interests, different ways of handling money etc and our differences created a lot of problems in our relationship. In the beginning it wasn't a problem and we both found it nice that the other person was able show us some new things and inspire us to do something that we hadn't tried before. We also admired the parts about the other person which were different from ourselves and found those things attractive. After a while things changed and we started finding the differences annoying instead of attractive and we had a lot of arguments because we disagreed about so many things, and for us a relationship with very so many differences didn't work out in the end.

We can not predict anything ,there are people who live together for their whole life though their taste or interest do very .

I do not know if will last.. it depends on the partner love,relationship and how they are faitthful..Attraction is the best ,and can like you and want you because they attract something at your body,face attitudes and so...

It's not about outer beauty. It's about their understanding, trust on each other. Every relation lies on the trust, affection, mutual understanding. If they are strong enough no matter whether they are quiet opposite or same.

yes, i just want to say that i lost my love, i love him so much but we can not be together any more. At first, we are opposite, and i just want to keep away from him. i think i and him are not the same world person, we have the different experience, and i do not want to meet with him, but then he came to my city and call me out, this is the first time we meet, and we chat many things, but most he said i listen. Then, i want to finish, so when he got my city another time, i begin to find excuse. And in that afternoon, he waited for me all the afternoon but i have not gone. when i know this i feel very sorry to him and contact with him. At last, we become lover, but now we have say goodbye without any explain.

My husband and I are opposites. We have different interests and likes. I truly believe that we give each other the balance we all need from our differences. However, it is important in a relationship that the couple find some thing common they both like. For us, we love to read, thus we jaunt to the bookstore together. We both blog, going to the beach, watch movies and do some things together. We have our challenges, but how the relationship works out depends on how well you communicate and express and resolve any misunderstanding. it's been fun. I think our daughter gets to benefit from our different interests as well. For example, my husband can draw and play music. So I know that my daughter gets exposure in these areas. If my partner was just like me, she would not get this opportunity.

Some say the opposite will work great because this is like ying/yang others say you can only have a good relationship with people who are the same as you are. I think it's boring to be with someone who is exactly like me. And if so.. why should i be with that person? What is the extra/plus that person gives to me? I am quite well and happy to be with myself, less trouble, worries, taking care of. What works for you only you can tell. Ask yourself what kind of relationship you want. The one where every day is the same? The one that you don't need to speak because the other one already knows what you think? The boring one? The safe one? The one that triggers one? The one you can be yourself at no matter what since you know your partner loves you? The one where you and your partner still have stories to tell eachother, still are interested in eachother? What is most important to you? Since one thing is clear you can't have everything since the perfect person is rare. Any realtionship will work as long as you remember what you like about your partner and if you (both) are willing to make it work.

I think that kind of relationship will last. If they really love each other then it will really work. I think when both have different interests, it's kind of challenging but at the same time exciting. You'll be doing a lot of new things because you have different interests which makes it more exciting and not boring.

Me and my husband have opposite likes,and even were like that,we are still happy being each other..In my opinion differences in likes cannot affect your relationship because in my personal experience..i learned to love whats my husband likes..

well i would not have been much comfortable with a person complete opposite to me.a certain degree of compatibility is a must in a relation to grow longer and deeper. opposites may attract in the beginning,but to a relation to stay alive for longer,both the partners have to mold to suit there partner.

Well i guess that would really last because according to the books i read that would complete a total being of a person.Thus each of them will understand grow and feel complete.Evan if they don't have same interest but they will learn more. Each they they were together that would help them know each other and be compatibles being together.

I married my opposite and I love it... if I wanted someone who was just like me why not just be by myself after all no one can be like me better than me. It takes work and understanding to be with someone so different than you but is def doable. I think the key to being with some one different than you is the same as any relationship and that is just to always communicate and respect each other and each others point of view.
