Like Begets Like
Like begets like.
Is that a good thing? In some situations, I think that can be downright depressing.

C'mon girl, don't tease us. Elaborate!
sheesh, you're fast!
Okay, okay...I bite.
okay, here's a bone...what if you're completely screwed up? wouldn't it be beneficial to be able to attract and/or produce something unlike that which is completely screwey? Of course, this is if we believe that like does beget like.
share thoughts, please.
oh
i'll play!
i'm pretty screwed up. but my wife isn't. and my few good friends aren't either. yes, i have had one or two screwed up partners/friends too. but not the majority!
i think screwed up people need to be around stable people. i know it helps me.
as for producing, i dunno there. i don't produce!
Bee-it seems to me, that in a relationship it works best when the two people (hopefully there are only two) bring different strengths and weaknesses to the table. At least it's been that way in my experience. You sort of meet in the middle, creating opportunities to grow and look at things from a new perspective...you know...hopefully you can complement each other more than knock each other down...intentionally or just through natural rhythms from your 'alikeness'.
m, i think that's incredible. and beautiful that you found a mate who is healthy. i have some amazing friends who are not screwed up at all. it is so helpful as i walk through each day, and also comforting. and yes, definitely need stability as i traverse the roller coaster of life.
cin - in a way i agree with you. however i think looking at strengths and weaknesses as far as it relates to two relatively healthy people, is somewhat different than looking at strengths and weaknesses of two people in a relationship when both parties are mentally, emotionally, or otherwise not healthy (albeit they can be on the road to health).
