Opposites Attracts

They say that opposite attracts. I guess that’s true for me and my husband.

He likes to stay home
I love going out

He is quiet
I am loud

He is a nerd
I am sociable

During our childhood, he likes staying indoors playing video games
I like going out with friends, playing outdoor pinoy games

He follows traffic/street rules
I don’t (sometimes)

He loves Mediterranean, Italian dish
I love Filipino and Korean dish

He does not like eggplant and any dishes with gata
Eggplant and any dishes with gata are my favorite

He doesn’t like shrimps and crabs
I love them all

He is a night person
I am a morning person

He likes modern industrial design
I like a classic rustic design

He likes keeping stuff
I like giving (throwing) out stuff

… at marami pang iba (the list goes on and on)

But there are things we do in common too.

We don’t like romantic movies… We enjoy Sci-Fi, Thrilling, Horror and Action movies. We like Japanese food. We both like dining out and doing staycations.

We are two different people when we married each other, but we promised to be together through thick and thin and for richer and for poorer. We fight when we disagree, but at the end of the day we talk and try to understand each other’s different perspectives and opinions.

On this day, we are now 15 years together and 11 years married. We are still growing and making good memories together. High Five my love!
