How many times have you seen the movies portray two people who are completely different falling head over heels in love with each other? There are many times that you will see two people that seem to have no idea the other exists falling in love with each other. But, is this really something that can happen? Can opposites really attract in such a profound way? Many would be shocked to hear that yes, it can happen like that. While it is not going to be something that is as quick as can be done within only a few days, it does happen.
Struggle
One way in which people end up coming together is through struggle. If two people seem to be caught in the same battle it is quite possible that they will end up fighting the same things and therefore wind up sharing a bond that no one else will have. How many movies have you seen when two people begin the movie with being completely different from each other, even disliking each other and winding up having to work together in order for the struggle to wind up in their favor? This happens in daily life together. When two people go through the same things, they end up sharing a bond and an experience together that is completely unique to only them.
Wanting What You Do Not Have
Another aspect that seems to happen when opposites attract is that many find themselves to be falling in love with each other for the simple fact that the other one has something that they find to be unique and different from what they have themselves. The good girl that is used to doing everything by the book; falls for the reckless cowboy that just happens to wander into her life. That is how it ends up happening in the movies but in real life, people see something in the other that is interesting and intriguing and human nature draws them to it.
There are many more scenarios like these that the movies portray as a means of opposites attracting. It is very difficult to see this from the outside though. We feel that people should be something alike in order to actually do well together, right? Surely they need to share some interests in order for it to actually work, right? The fact is that in many cases, for opposites to attract and for them to work in the long run, they do need to share at least some very important details. They will need to share visions for life that are in agreement. They need to be able to see things in the same manner in order for them to live a life together that is true to both of their needs and preferences and still a solid relationship.
Should you get into a relationship with someone that is opposite of you? Carefully consider it in order to find out if your two very different personalities will work well together not just today but in the long run as well.
