Together, we have an unbelievable synergy; our partnership is much, much, much greater than the sum of the two individuals.
Certainly, but had I made "alike in all the right areas" an option, who would've chosen otherwise?!Can't answer the poll. Too simplified. There's plenty of room between 'birds of a feather' and 'opposites attract'. Doesn't have to be "either/or".
We have got a room. Care to join us?You guys are all googly-eyed over one another...blech...get a room, already!
:tongue:

Would you say you and your partner are more alike or unalike?
I agree some shared fundamental values are necessary - I could never be involved with someone who didn't have the same love of freedom and belief in respecting people that I do. But everything else - religion, cultural practices, race, political affiliation, sexuality (I would definitely marry someone Bi) are open.Birds of a feather definitly! For me I prefer to have a guy who is alot like me, and has been brought up with the same values and likes that I have. That being said I like to have seperate interests too. I'm not one of those girls that needs to be with my partner every second of everyday. I have dated people that are complete oppisites of me and that never works out we are just to different and not what I want out of a relationship. I like guys that are more like me because we can have fun doing things that we both like not one suffering doing something completly different than what they are into.
Ita.Opposites attract for me. I'm white and my partners black. We're from different countries and have completely different backgrounds. Each day is a new learning experience. When I see gay men together that look like clones it makes me gag.
I'm with HazelGod on this one. I know that opposites attract and complement each other, yet there is that certain vibe you have with someone who likes many of the same things that you do.I'm going with birds of a feather, at least where sex is concerned. The opposite thing is only amusing for so long...once the novelty wears off, all those opposites just really irritate you. Better to be paired up with someone who's closer to your mirror image than your polar opposite.
