I think its a good thing to be attracted to difference. But few people understand the true meaning of their differences and the price for this lack of insight can be steep.
Experts say having more of the right similarities is more helpful in a relationship. So, yes and no. As far as personalities go, having opposites in relationships often works because both partners in the relationship balance everything out. For example: if a there is a couple containing a woman who is high-strung and a guy who is easy-going, then having the opposing personalities would stabilize the relationship in difficult times. However, two people in a relationship won't be attracted to each other if they are complete opposites. As far as beliefs and values go, two people in a relationship often look for someone who has the same values and beliefs as them.
