On The Surface...

I'm talking about on people.

I'm reading some writings of the guy I'm stalking, and I'm realizing that we have absolutely nothing in common...

and yet, we are the same person.

We have soo many differences...

I'm Black, He's White
I'm Straight, He's Gay
I'm northern, He's southern
I'm an intellectual fraud, He's a literal genius

And when you look at these things, on the surface, they are in direct conflict with eath other. I took a quiz that said there was no chance of a relationship if your favorite movies would avoid each other at a party, but that's just it.

Because we both have tons of favorite movies. Some would ignore each other, some would make out on the couch, some would dance drunkenly totally freaking out to whatever was on, some would discuss the latest episode of whatever show was on, some would squee about someone's level of hottness, some would gossip and then tell everyone else what they heard, some would scheme on each other, some would take the closest chair and slam it over the other's head, some would hook up in the room of their host's little brother, some would get high and philosophize, some would get all political, some would call the other something racially insensitive, etc.
And we would sit there -I think- him and I, watching this, and making commentary about it. And that commentary would be in total agreement with each other, even if we disagreed because above all of this, we are the same person.

So what makes a person your identical match and your polar opposite?
