Love Are You Similar To Each
Other
How similar are you with your partner?
Agreed that both of you are in love, and enjoy each other's
togetherness. You like each other and want to live together
till you die. You may say that you love him/her with your body
and soul. What about similarities between both of you? Is your
love result of these similarities? Or despite few similarities
you love each other? Similarities affect relationship to some
extent and are important to discuss.
Work interest - Do you have common work interest? Are you
qualified in the same stream? or your work interests are
different? Common work interests lead to better understanding,
but this is not very important.
Hobbies - Do you have similar hobbies? Even if they are not
common, do any of you have any hobby that the other partner
dislikes?
Values - how similar are your beliefs and values? Do you
support same political party or your views are opposite to each
other? What about your opinions on major issues of life? What
about goals? Are your thought processes similar or different?
These can make a major difference in the quality of love and
life.
Living together can become difficult if the dissimilarities are
many. Conflicts take major energy and time. There is no time
left to focus on love and living together if major time is
spent in sorting out differences. It is easier to feel love in
the beginning if the similarities are few. As times passes,
dissatisfaction rises and cracks appear in the relationship. It
is difficult to live with a person who holds totally opposite
views. More similarities always help in making love last for a
longer time.
