In related news, my Christmas present from my wife arrived and she chose cash on delivery. Who does that anymore?/Is that even an option most places? I didn't have the cash on me at the time so the delivery guy agreed he would return between 2 and 4pm. I was wearing jeans so no looking at any legs for him
Are you here in the states visiting?

I’ve seen two quiet people work and couples with one person quite, while the other is loud. I can’t figure that chemistry out. When I say loud, I mean outgoing (talkative).
It’s funny how that works, right? I think opposites just complement each other. He keeps me grounded, and I keep things exciting. It’s a nice balance.

So, I read an article once that said opposites often attract because of “complementary traits”? Like, people are naturally drawn to qualities in others that balance out their own personality or provide something they subconsciously lack?

IMHO, I think it’s less about opposites attracting, though. I see it as more shared values over personality traits. So like, even if a couple is opposite in how they express themselves, like with your observation, one being outgoing, and the other not so much, they often still share deeper similarities — like core beliefs, goals, and priorities. I think that’s what really holds them together long-term. Know what I mean?
