Having different interests can be positive if each one shows real interest in the other person's mind. It all depends on honesty and communication.

Exactly i agree with u, i also think the relationship is more interesting when 2 persons are opposit. I feel it's more exiting to discover each other when ur not the same, bcoz if u are the same then there is nothing new to discover and i think that's booring, but that's just me

Thank you fado,
but i would rather describe the couple as "different" and not "opposite" because it's much healthier to be complementary than contradictory.

Do opposites really attract?
Is it good if they do?

It depends on the couple .... if everyone is willing to accept the differences of the other and not trying to make him as he wants or as he likes .. and if he will try to enjoy being with a person totally different than him, to discover him, share him those things .... and vice versa .... i think yes why not .... they can make it.......and they may find it really great

Asslan mich 7elo if the couple has so many commun things ... it's boring .... chi w minno

Difference makes life full of suspense and joy if people are mature and know how to deal with.

Now, riding a motorbike is insane but not unattractive. Nothing wrong with bookworms and the TV can be educative. So you'd always find excuses if you're attracted to someone even if he's a nerd :D.

Opposites attract; but easy on it; they can't be total opposites, they gotta share some common interests.

Sometimes u see opposites living together and having full satisfaction, some other times u find that two alike persons are living very happily and can't stand the opposite ones
Ya3ne, it depends on the persons themeselves

true and right

but a mere adjustment for the sake of generalization:
opposite vs same >>> different vs similar

and of course we're talking here about mentalities and principles
