Is a good, healthy relationship possible with a polar opposite?

[ToriitheGoblin]

If two people have completely different interests, opinions, likes, dislikes, hobbies and all that, can they still have a happy relationship?

No, this constellation is not likely going to work out in the long run. Sure, you will say that there is still the fornication but that only represents a small percentage of the total awake time of an adult. This copulation time is something like less than 1 single percent of that time. What about the remain 99%?

If you have nothing to talk about with your better half, if you have no common hobbies or activities, then you might as well avoid the hassle to be in a relationship.

Sure the relationship will work if you disregard everything and just move it because of convenience. Convenience will be the only common point you have. But will that be enough to call it a healthy relationship?

If their core values are same if their dreams regarding future match together and if they know how to accept and respect differences then yes they can. Even after having differences if they can fit together, if they can make eachother complete with their own qualities then yes they can.

Common hobbies are not that important but if one want children, other don't, it a problem.

Diving into the heart of your question, absolutely, a good, healthy relationship is not just possible with a polar opposite; sometimes, it's the spice that keeps the love sizzling! Think of it like this—when opposites attract, they bring an array of diverse experiences and perspectives to the table, turning every day into an adventure. But here’s the secret ingredient: communication. As long as both parties are committed to understanding each other and embracing their differences with open hearts, these unique relationships can flourish. Remember, it's less about having the same hobbies or opinions and more about having mutual respect and a genuine curiosity about what makes the other tick. So yes, strap in and enjoy the ride—the road less traveled in love often leads to the most breathtaking destinations.

Oh I love this, thank you so much!

I don't see how. Maybe you've never experienced what a relationship can really be like with someone you have a lot in common with, especially if you both have a great sense of humor!
If you are polar opposites life for the two of you would be more like being in school teaching each other what the other one doesn't know. BORING!!!👎

Very unlikely. You need some connection somewhere.

Sure
