How compatible are you?

    How compatible are you and the person you are with? How would you know? Just because you like the same types of foods and pets does not mean that you can have a blissful, long-term relationship.

    That is like asking how compatible you are with your best friend. In order to have a long term rich and full filling relationship you must first have a deep friendship.

    Yes, attraction is great, but without friendship then there is nothing but sexual attraction which leads to a road of heart ache and misery.

    If you have to ask then you know that it is not the right one. When it comes along you will know that it is love without any question.

    You will also know that this special person is your very best friend and you can confide in them with anything and everything.

    Having things in common helps, yes,but you have things in common with your enimies as well. A relationship can not be judged upone whether or not you both like the same thing.

    I know we're compatible because not only do we have all the interest things similiar but i know i can talk to him about anything at all!
    I mean, i even found myself talking about my period to him more than once, lol
    It's just knowing that we have so much in common and that we can talk to each other about anything at all is so nice.
    I also love the fact we don't have to talk, we can sit in silence for over an hour and still feel this amazing closeness.
    It's hard to explain.

    Me and him are pretty much opposites for the most part:

    He loves eating different types of meat, not all the time, but he does where I'm pretty much a veggie at least that's what he calls me. His family teases me once in a while for that.

    He is going hunting again today, and does so every once in a while, and I'm against it because hearing anything like that makes me sad.

    I'm into kind of rock music now, especially screaming types where he's strictly country/classical stuff like that.

    He'll tease me about using the computer a lot (I do for editing things together) and he'll be out doing things that I feel has no purpose for hours.

    Except that most of the time we do get along, and having a lot of differences even major lifestyle ones like some of what we have, doesn't have to mean that your relationship is doomed from the start.

    I can say that my boyfriend and i have many things to work on, but things are going well so far. maybe a little too well considering we haven't had a fight or anything to test our relationship, and we've been together for 3 months

    Yup! very well said.i know compatibility doesnt mean you need to be in common in all aspects,i guess when you're in love, you need to accept and love him for he is and what he is not....

    Can I ask something?

    But what if we're almost two worlds apart? Just like RoadandtheRadio said? He likes this but I like that. Most of our fights was because of that. And I'm tired of fighting.

    And I really really hate it when he does the.. "No.. I don't have any problems with you" But he tells his friends! And his friends will go all "You're immature Fid."

    And when we have fights, he'll bring up all the things he never said!!

    It's just unfair that I could tell him even to the finest detail. And he can't even tell me a little. To him, it's not important.

    Like he claiming he didn't have any girl friends but his phone, online has a full list of girls!

    Ok. I think I'm a bit off topic. But I just want to know... What's so compatible about us?
