Opposites do attract, to an extent.
There is a thrill in being with someone who doesn’t share the exact qualities that you do.
It’s akin to being blindfolded and given items with the responsibility of having to figure out what the item is.
An opposite is someone full of mysteries.
That is thrilling in the beginning.
You don’t know what you are going to discover with each conversation and activity that you indulge in with this person that is your opposite.
Furthermore, it’s something different from what you are used to.
You have dated the same caliber of women your entire life, for the most part.
They were all similar, with minor differences.
This means that you have known what to expect from them.
With similar personalities, there hasn’t been that much room for surprises.
To an extent, you have enjoyed this.
This has been your comfort blanket so to speak.
It’s human nature.
As human beings, we are creatures of habit and like the familiarity and safety that comes with it.
There has been minimal risk in who you have dated in the past, being that they have all been so similar in looks, personality and background.
This is what leads to boredom.
You get so used to dating the same type of woman that it becomes too predictable.
It is akin to eating the same food each and every day.
Although you love said food, it’s inevitable that you get tired of it.
You crave a different type of food to entice your taste buds.
This is when you are primed for looking out for a partner that is your opposite.
An opposite gives you something that you aren’t used to.
You don’t know what to expect.
To this end, it’s thrilling.
Your taste buds are salivating.
The thrill of the unexpected is welcome and greatly anticipated.
When you see a woman that represents the opposite of what you are used to dating, there is an excitement you feel that you haven’t felt in a while.
You have become so used to dating the same type of woman that you aren’t all that excited whenever you have gotten into relationships with them in the past.
Instead, it’s a familiar feeling that you get.
One that is safe and harmless.
This has made you go through the motions with these women.
You do what you are supposed to do as a boyfriend, but you rarely go above and beyond.
It doesn’t take long before you get bored, and you are breaking up soon after.
When you meet that woman that is your opposite, there is a surge of energy that goes through you.
She represents newness and injects your dating life with a fresh energy.
As you date her, you are excited about what you are about to learn about her, knowing how different this experience will be in comparison to the women you have dated in the past.
In addition, you are excited about what you are about to learn about yourself.
For a while, the thrill and discovery is exhilarating.
But, as human beings, we have a tendency to fall back to what we know.
Although you were attracted to this opposite, this attraction was primarily motivated by a desire to break the monotony of dating women that have been so similar to you.
The excitement of dating an opposite dies down after a short while.
This leads to wanting to go back to what you are familiar with.
The woman that is similar to you.
You have had your fill of the new food and you want to go back to your comfort food.
