2 People with totally different views on life - Getting together

We all have our own views on everything in life, which leads to the question:
How can 2 people who are direct opposites get on?
Maybe the initial attraction of a person totally opposite to you, but that quickly wears out, as you have exactly nothing in common what-so-ever. Nothing.

Have you had an experience like the above? Can you then share it?

wow

Keep Safe!

Loh. Some things do if you work hard enough at it.
Jim. You are welcome to a mare, if you wish. I don't.
The top half of that post was posted/ attached to mine was someone else's and obviously the words at the bottom were obviously mine.sorry.blushing
Bear. That is what this blog is about. You want some things in Common, Not Nothing. Everything in Common, you will Never find either, but you do want some differences, to tickle you with.
I think he wants someones granny from the bingo hall, in a 20 year old hotties body... Unlikely.

Anyone taking bets on when the meltdown happens? My money is on 2 days...
Pat. You are entitled to your opinion. Just specify, who you are talking to and who you are talking about?
The first bit Lee, the second yourself.
Yes I'd like to have things in common with someone not someone who dotes on my every word.There would be no need to be with them in the first place.
Pat. Would you like to cause me to have a meltdown, then.
Bear. I agree. You want someone that's a challenge, Not a Push-Over.
No actually, I wouldn't. But it would be following a distinct pattern, happens every time.
Pat. You seem to be good at Horrorscopes.
Lee. This is true about everything in the Universe.
How do spl wave and cswelcome

I reckon having common ground depends on what you're looking for and wanting in a relationship.
If you are looking for feeling all wrapped up in love, the only thing you need in common is they feel the same way as you, but if in a relationship, for companionship, then I reckon being on common ground would be a MUST.. JMO
Hi CelticRose. Yes, unfortunately most people believe that loving and being loved is enough. With this guy: He tells me he loves me in every communique, but I don't, and it's very irritating being told always, as if imprinting it on you, so that you are his and no-one else's. It feels like emotional prison.
To be honest with you Spl, I wouldn't be able to put up with that....
someone telling me all the time, they love me, would drive me cracked doh

It's emotional blackmail, simple as, end of conversing
Cr. I don't know how to tell him No, after trying endless times. He just does not take it in, as he believes that he is for me, and me alone. I have no clue anymore, how to handle the situation. Advice is welcome.
Cr. I think I have to mention that he's a guns fanatic too, but his social graces are over-developed. Thus he can talk most people into anything, except me, and there lies the initial attraction.
Cr. Luckily I never allowed that to happen, and yes he is a danger to me, as he wouldn't listen to reason. Proposals fly through the air, at Mach what-ever.
when only you can stand up for yourself, you need to stand up TO yourself also ....
G'luck as you go teddybear
Cr. Thanks for the advice!
Any other advice, from anyone?
Is this the same guy who was taking you and your sons out for fish dinners confused
Serene, you have totally the wrong person scold

This blogger is new, 56, has no kids but definitely wants them.
Ohh thanks for clarifying that Molly conversing

I thought it was that South African chick who's a computer programmer with an incredibly high IQ and personality disorder doh

My mistake handshake grin
Molly & Serene: Are you here to criticize and compare people? Who listens to you? a Big Joke, I would say.
I remember from high school, studying George Bernard Shaw's 'Pygmalion' in which he had a kind of epilogue discussing Eliza Doolittle and Prof Higgins as potential partners ... funny that I should happen to remember that! Two strong characters, strong personalities. Nothing like the Movie version, My Fair Lady however
