Do opposites attract?

I really don't know if opposites attract or not. I've had both types as far as being totally different than each other, to like most of the same stuff, and either way, it didn't pan out.

I've had relationships that didn't work out because I had felt smothered, and felt like I needed my own space. I've pretty much have always been a loner, and I'm even more used to being this way because I'm not around someone lot. People have suggested that I have another place in the house to get my space, and I thought, why should I do that when I have the whole house to myself. I know, it doesn't work that way if you're in a relationship, except maybe both of you had your own place. But that would only work for some time.

I know I have felt this way since I was 17. This goes all the way back to my ex. She wanted to be with me every minute of the day. I know I should feel blessed by that, but that got old very fast.

Then over the years I had met other women who liked their space as well, and that was great, except for a couple of things, we had different beliefs as far as Religion and politics go. This never worked out either.

I haven't given up in finding the right one, but as I gotten, I have become more stubborn and set in my ways. Right now I don't have a problem being alone, but I don't know if I'll feel the same way five-ten years down the road. I probably will feel different about being alone in a few years.

Am I hard to please? Unfortunately, I think I am.

Anyone else feel like I do in some of the ways I mentioned?
