Opposite Attraction

Do opposites attract? It depends. I believe that in some instances, it does. For example, some people prefer diversity in their lives. You know, something new, something fresh, someone whose perhaps, completely different from you. In other instances, however, opposite attraction does not last. It fails to do so in relationships that soon crumbles due to conflicting ideas. In other words, it is difficult to maintain that relationship when it always ends with bitter arguments.

I believe that Ris and I were, in the beginning, opposites. Ris was very outgoing, friendly, reliable, but she also relied on others, positive, and was very outspoken around friends and strangers alike. Ris is a contradicting girl who's sweet in her own grim way. She is a Virgo.
I, on other hand, was a very scared, shy, unreliable, independent, and harsh person. While others would make friends in class, I would be sitting alone hoping that no one will ever bother me. I am a very negative boy who's jokes sometimes goes way too far as to make someone emotionally distraught. I am an Aries.The astrological signs alone says that we are opposites. Aries is very controlling and leads others to believe that he is a natural-born leader. Aries is very manipulating in a sense that it has to be his way at all times. He is selfish. Virgo is very forgiving and modest. She is simple and so, simple things makes her happy. She is very innocent and creatively intelligent.

But despite our differences, I believe that it was the reason why we were attracted to each other. And this is why I always tell her never to change. I've noticed that I am influencing her to change, to become more negative and harsh to her own self. I don't want that. I want her to act the way she naturally does. I mean, it's what made me like her in the first place. I just want her to stay the same and I believe that our relationship will remain strong. In our case, opposites do attract.
