to be honest with you, you don't have to have a lot in common with a partner to get along, I mean what matters is do they listen to you, do you listen to them, do you like each other, can you hold conversations, do you support each other, can you compromise, you really don't have to have anything in common I mean if you love them then you can find ways to be on the same page honestly, so opposites do attract that's a cliche saying for a reason
