It’s so interesting how we seek out and are excited by similarities between ourselves and others. It’s all about matching interests, ideas, and goals. Why not some variety? Why can’t differences be exciting? They’re more challenging and engaging.
Even though, I look for the similarities as well, I tend to prefer a companion who is different from me, yet similar to the way that I want to be. But then, I seem to be searching for someone to guide my life and complete me. Perhaps, once I know what I want and am willing to compromise on, the search for similarities will be a more well-defined, useful tool.However, even when individuals do have obvious similarities, there are still an infinite number of differences between them. These similarities may not be terribly crucial, so that over time, the differences could negate the similarities, and ultimately, create a less desirable match.
