Differences in relationships

[Anocxu]

the difference in hobbies and interests actually enables myself and my partner to broaden our views and even learn new stuff about ourselves. One thing that makes us work as well is that neither of us demands the other changes in any way and we don't try to force each other to enjoy the same things as the other one does.

So to answer your question, a relationship can handle a lot of difference as long as they have the right mindset and can respect each other's differences.

You described a major challenge in most relationships.

I'm seeing a trend where people date a carbon copy of themselves because it's...easier. Having hobbies and common interests is a quick way to bring folks together.

Staying together is really what matters...
Growth and dynamics seems to keep relationships solid.

Personally I would never date a carbon copy of myself.. it would really end in battling egos and competitiveness.

^^^^^
Some couples dig that sort of stuff..
