How does it feel when someone has something that's the same as yours? It could be a watch, clothes, shoes, book, phone, habit, likes, or dislikes.
Does it make you uncomfortable or do you feel drawn to them because they have similar taste as you? Most friendships come from a simple ‘me too' experience.
Likes do attract and if someone has something similar to you, you could be drawn to each other. You get to bond through having the same experience or thing.
It's easier for someone to understand your situation or something you are going through if they, too, have been through the same thing. They know how it feels and it's easier for you to trust them and their judgment.
You can openly share with them and listen to their advice because they have been able to navigate the situation themselves. They know what to do and what not to do. They can hold your hand and help you cross over safely.
Sometimes, though, likes do not attract. When you have similar personalities and characters you may tend to repel each other. If both of you are talkers, none may be willing to let the other talk because you both want to be heard.
Similar personalities have the tendency of clashing compared to opposite ones that will easily compromise. A talker will do better with a listener who will be more than willing to hear them talk non-stop.
Sometimes when things are similar, they become boring. Having different things brings about variety. There are more options to choose from. The world would be dull and boring if we all had similar personalities, likes, and dislikes.
This collection of similar quotes will help you embrace both similarities and opposites. Although at times it's great to have something in common, other times it's better to have different things.
