Do Opposites Really Attract?

Do you think opposites attract? Is it possible to have a successful
relationship even if the two people have little in common? The
advantages of being with someone who is very different from you is
that you can learn about things you never would have thought of
yourself, and his/her strengths might be your weaknesses,
while your strengths can be his/her weaknesses-in other words, you
two can complement each other, and fit together like two pieces of
a puzzle.
Of course, the bad part is if you two don't have much in common, it
might be hard to spend time together or agree on some things. It
might lead to many arguments and misunderstandings.
So what do you guys think? How similar are you to your significant
other? Are you guys opposites or have a lot in common? Can
opposites have a successful relationship?

Yes i do think that opposites do attract! Im with some one now that me and him are really opposite but for some reason we love each other very much its not always good we do fight alot but we makelove alot too(lol)In some things it is a good thing cuz what one is not good at the other one is. Can opposites have a successful relationship? What do you think succesful is everyone fights no matter how opposite you are. Its all how you veiw yourself and the other person and how far your willing to go to make things work

Well a couple definitely needs to have some common interests and have the same long-term goals or it will not work out. In my relationship, my man and I are different in alot of ways but not complete opposites. My strengths are his weaknesses and vice versa. I feel that by being different we compliment each other and things never get stale between us because our different interests enlighten each other. I have learned so much from him and he has from me. I love the way he constantly points out the new things that I teach him. In previous relationships, my exes were almost identical to me in interests, thoughts and emotions and at first I loved it, but then I got bored. I'm constantly on the quest for knowledge, so by being with someone different from me helps to quench my thirst!

To honest, it's possible, because there's this bully B.J. who's a real jerk, not much of a Sonic fan as I am, doesn't get between cartoon characters and real characters, and sometimes teases me, yet, we're respect each other a lot, like he told me how to get more stuff on my ipod touch. My answer is, yes as long as you want to be with that person.
