Evidence: Part II - Opposites Attract

Along the lines of needing to be needed, there's the age-old saying "Opposites attract". Anyone who has ever taken interest in another has probably experienced this before. You meet someone who is nothing like you, you have zero common ground, and yet you find her to be the most fascinating person. Maybe you go out a few times, somethings work really well, some things don't seem to work at all. You each fill a need for the other - stability, enthusiasm for life, financial savvy, or creativity, but there's no common ground to start from.

I believe we need that kind of opposite in our life. It validates my character, my choices, my weaknesses, my strengths and gives them all a meaning, a purpose.
