In love, do opposites attract?
Bluntly, he's crazy. Always needs to be with people. Very social. A party animal. Live in the moment. Traits I have so little of but would love to have because I'm just the opposite. More shy, very analytical,a complete introvert all through high School. He loves sports. I'm an artist. Yet since the day we met we've been together constantly as a couple. He took me to parties, helped me feel more free. I try so hard to talk to him, feel the same way, because when I do its amazing. I just can't help but feel like he'd be better off with a girl just as outgoing as him.
He's my boyfriend now. We say we are completely in love. I know I am. I just wonder if anyone has had this situation. Could this continue to work out?

Honestly, it usually doesn't work out in the end because unless both people are EXTREMELY flexible and don't mind compromising, it will be very difficult and annoying. The two different people always have different mind sets and always have different ideas and unless one person or both people are constantly willing to adapt to change and compromise. But constantly compromising will get you angry in the end because one may take advantage of the other, or one may be the one who is ALWAYS making the sacrifices. In high school, it might be fun though! :) Not for marriage though.
Well, my experience is that "similars" have even more satisfying relationships together... alot of people say well you need someone different to help you be like this or that but you are just who you are primarily and i've found that i have to change the least and just really like being around girls that are similar to me....introverted and shy...... paradoxically i really open up naturally around girls like me and talk quite a bit...moreso than i ever have around any extrovert......around an extrovert it always feels forced. I guess to me the opposites attract thing seems like it's tenuous... like trying to keep oil and water together as best as possible but they never quite mix, for lack of a better analogy.... the best relationships are where the two of you go together well on most major aspects, including personality, imo.
Obviously it is going good! Just keep things positive, avoid drama, and talk stuff out civilly rather then fight and your set!
