Can complete opposites ever connect in any way? Friends or relationship? I wonder if it's possible.

Friends, sure. I don't think I could date someone who was the complete opposite as me, though.

Well as long as they stop by with a couple beers or something I imagine it is possible..

Well,,,,











Lets Seeeeeeeeee..um,,

I am a man and I stand to Pee..and do THAT with an external member of my body..

YOU set when you pee,,w/o THAT member being out there.


YOU have BIG BREASTS WHICH PROTRUDE OUT...


I HAVE ONES WHICH JUST RUN WITH MY CHEST...


YOU can have a baby,,,GROW INSIDE YOU..

And I CAN NEVER HAVE THAT..



SOooooooo



ARE WE NOT ALREADY ABOUT AS OPPOSITE AS WE COULD BE FOUND TO SHOW?

SO,,,,I THINK,,,ANY TWO PEOPLE can find LOVE between them,,,IF IT IS THERE TO FEEL...

As long as one doesn't try to change the other.

Most folks can find something in common.

absolutely.

I find this shizmic always happens when you meet someone with a controlling personality.

Well then if you met someone with a controlling personality, head for the door.

This sounds like most of my marriages, they worked fine until I tired of working at it. As my Dad used to say- when you get married remember aisle, the altar and the hymn. Because that is what she is thinking- I'll alter him.

Well a lot of opposites compliment each other like salt and pepper, left and right, male and female but some opposites only stand on the other and that is not so good. Yea a controlling person could possibly match a submissive person but generally people either become submissive agressive or broken which ultimatley don't really compliment each other.

Getting hooked up with a controlling personality is IMHO just a learned conditioned response that sometimes goes a long way back in a persons life.

I think there is no such thing as COMPLETE opposites because we can always find SOMETHING in common if we look hard enough

it just might not be something we feel is important in our life or our relationship

I know James Carville is a staunch democratic pundit married to a staunch republican pundit and they seem very opposite in their personalities (he has that cajun, laid back humor and she is a bit more stiff and conservative)

but what they have in common is their intelligence,,,and apparently thats important to both of them,,,,

when the things that are "opposite" might be complimentary it's possible - for example introverts and extroverts sometimes attract one another

but if it's a matter of opposite values or moral standards. I don;t think that would work

no less than 60% percent the same and no higher than 40% different to play it safe if that helps any

This is interesting. I love hearing guys perspectives on this one. A lot of people I meet sometimes are so different in the beginning, sometimes really nice, helpful, kind, then when they start getting comfortable another side of them comes out and I get sucked into the relationship because I was friends with them despite them being the almost polar opposite of me. For example: intense guys, men who take things certain frivolous things so seriously, that I can't stand. There's a difference in being sensitive and just downright brutal.

Opposites attract. But I don't think they stay together for very long.

Depends on how opposite you are. But anything is possible. Some things just take more work.

most couples are opposite in some things, no?
absolute polar opposites in thoughts, beliefs, and ways of life;
**** no.
relationships, no.
friends, yes.
and even then i'd say they're not going to be your closest friends.

They are men.
They are already the complete opposite.
I don't go looking for ammo.

Personality-wise, how they treat others, a little humility? What about those? They're pretty universal in humans.

Friends, yeah, why not? Relationship? I don't know, the oppositional stuff is always a deal-breaker for me. I think there has to be some basic agreement on fundamentals for it to get past the "This is new and interesting" phase.
