  1. "We are sun and moon, dear friend; we are sea and land. It is not our purpose to become each other; it is to recognize each other, to learn to see the other and honor him for what he is: each the other's opposite and complement."
    - Hermann Hesse

    "When you meet someone so different from yourself, in a good way, you don't even have to kiss to have fireworks go off. It's like fireworks in your heart all the time. I always wondered, do opposites really attract? Now I know for sure they do. I'd grown up going to the library as often as most people go to the grocery store. Jackson didn't need to read about exciting people or places. He went out and found them, or created excitement himself if there wasn't any to be found. The things I like are pretty simple. Burning CDs around themes, like Songs to Get You Groove On and Tunes to Fix a Broken Heart; watching movies; baking cookies; and swimming. It's like I was a salad with a light vinaigrette, and Jackson was a platter of seafood Cajun pasta. Alone, we were good. Together, we were fantastic."

     So do you think opposites attract?

     How opposite is too opposite?

     Do opposites always complement each other?

     And what happens if the opposites DON'T complement each other?
     
  2. Yes they do.
     
  3. I honestly believe they do. But I also think it's a good topic of discussion. I like to hear people's opinions 
     
  4. My mom is crazy and my dad isn't  lmao done trolling.

    I think they do because I would wanna date someone who would steal the spotlight away from me.. But I don't wanna date someone dull since I'm so outgoing.
    I'm loud and obnoxious and someone quiet and sweet would take this wild beast.

    I for sure wouldn't date a lawyer because I love to debate and two debaters wot make it good in life to make a family. In some ways they do and in some ways they don't attract.

  6. I like women and I'm a guy.
    That's pretty opposite if you ask me.
     
  7. Lois and I are almost completely opposite. 

    He's patient, nice, calm, slow to take action, prefers logic to impulse but selfish.
