,,It is better to marry someone who is similar to you, rather than someone who is different''

A healthy marriage is based on strong relationship, communication, cooperation and understanding. Sometimes may occur a disagreements or misunderstandings, to overcome these facts the husband and the wife have to cooperate together to solve these kind of problems.

Many people consider that the husband and the wife must be similar on their nature, behavior, attitude to resolve the problems that occur etc. Other people say that
The life won't be interesting if you have the same nature as your partner, and soon you will get bored and divorce that person. But as we all know from the Holy Bible that God has created the woman from Adam's rib, because there was no one who was similar and good enough for Adam in the Garden of Eden. That's why it shall be called woman because she was taken out of men. As we see the woman was created with the purpose to supply men's weak spots. Reading some magazines I noticed that the happiest couples are those who work together and are in a good harmony, and it doesn't depend much on what kind of nature they have. I may give a good example of this kind of situation, I am not married but
My parents live together more than thirty five years, and they are a worthy to be an example for many couples. My mom she is a very full of energy, joyful, hard worker. But she gets nervous very fast is something is not done in time. She hates long discussions and boring reading clubs. My father is almost the opposite of my mom, he has more patient, he is talkative, likes to discuss on different topics and he may wait if somebody late to make something. In all these years of their common life I have seen a developed cooperation between a husband and a wife. My dad helps mom to understand some details of life that she would never look at it, sometimes when my dad is to slow to take decisions mother is ready to help.

In conclusion I may say that is better to marry that kind of person that you love, this is the most important. But if your natures don't stick together you should to learn how to cooperate. I think I will marry exactly that persons who is opposed to me because together we will supply one's another defects
