DepthofHeart answered Thursday May 3 2007, 7:18 pm: Sometimes, love is all you need. Even though I'm sure a lot of people would disagree with that. They say opposites attract, but you have to have to have something in common. Just because you don't have the same opinions or views on relationships doesn't mean you don't have the same views or opinions on other matters. If you guys really love eacho ther then you must have something in common to have made it this far in a relationship. So I think If you really love someone and you want a relationship with them, even though you don't have the same opinion on relationships you can make one work. But I'm not saying it always will. Find something you both share in common, something you two can do together. Good Luck!

Compatibility is either there or it isn't. The divorce rate today is so high because people believe that love can conquer all and they stay in relationships for love and companionship. They base their relationships entirely on love. Truth is, there's more to relationships than just love. You can find love elsewhere. There are probably about 50,000 people in the world that you could have a very happy future with. People don't really differ that much from each other. Love just grows from opportunity. You will have other opportunities for love in your life. Not only that, but the love will be just as strong if not stronger. When you are not compatible with someone, you can't love them fully. Love is just an emotion, it's not a force. Basing your entire life on emotions is very dangerous for your wellbeing. It's like basing a relationship on happiness. Sometimes, you're just not very happy. What happens when that love changes or goes away, what are you left with? In those times in your life when you don't feel love for that person, you'll have nothing and your relationship will eventually fall apart. You're 18. I think you're mature enough to realize all of this because you asked the question at all. You're just looking for a way to avoid having to let go. You can't avoid it. It's hard letting go, but it's the right thing to do if things can't get worked out. It's better to let go now, than 10 years down the road when you're married and have children to worry about.

For example just recently I was dating this kid who was crazy for me and I tried to love him back but I couldnt I wasnt compatible to him. I am now with someone I am so happy with and they are happy with me. So just give it time you will find someone
ohsnapxxiloveyou answered Thursday May 3 2007, 5:45 am: I would like to say yes, but unfortunatly, if you aren't all that compatible, there isn't much you can do to make it work except maybe work on the things you guys have trouble with.
