Same, a little similar, a little different and the total opposite
This world is just filled with so much different personalities. Ranging from one end to the other. One's personality will fall somewhere within that range. And if you are luckily enough, you will find someone with a similar personality, clicking instantly and becoming best buddies or life-long partner. You share everything together; having the same thoughts and same reactions and even able to read each others mind at times.
A little apart, there are some people who are not exactly like yourself but you can get along well. You enjoy their company, hanging out together and a little disagreement once in a while. You may not agree with each other all the time, staying put at your own opinion and protecting it. At times, one party will give way and follows your decisions. Others is your turn to give way. Addition, both can discuss and coming up with a conclusion together. But when no one wants to give way and cant get along, that is when problems start. A distance will grow from there. And when that happen, two outcomes will occur:
Firstly, there is no big a deal about the disagreement, both will eventually forget about it and get along again. This is when you get to learn more about your friend, helps you to understand them better and knowing how to react the next time it happen again. A friendship will be built then onwards.
Secondly, the distance just got further. You begin to disagree more often or perhaps on many things. No one wants to give in at all or discussing about it. This can happen more easily if one is a stubborn person or others may call this standing strong on ones principles. Eventually, you dislikes each other's company, not hanging out as much as you used to.
A further apart from your personality, are people who are quite different from oneself. They may have different way of thinking and acting. They do things differently. Is not a total bad thing. You can still be friends but you just don't share everything together. Same things are left unshared because of the feelings that that person may not understand how you feel and you may waste time trying to convience them or worst get into a fight. So you are still friends but a distance is kept. But nonetheless, there are people who are personalities aparts but you are still close to them. Probably opposites attract. You enjoy exchanging different views and doing stuff differently once in a while. It can be good fun. It is good in a sense that you have more variety in life rather than just sticking to the people who are similar to youself. However, sometimes you can be rather puzzled or amazed. Not understanding how one can react in a way that you may never think off. Interesting.
And lastly, is at the opposite end of the range. Someone that you just can never get along. You are very different from each other. You may never be friends as you only sees the bad side of a person. Everything that the person does or say is not good enough with you. You will find fault in every little thing he/she does. So the best is to avoid each other and no one gets hurt.
I know that it is difficult to categorized everyone. It is just a rough overview. Many people fall in between those categories. It is hard to have a black and white in this area. The outcomes arent that simple, it can be heartaching at time especially when you care but just cant get along. At some point, when you cant get along with most thing, feeling that everything is so different, you will feel lonely and thinking what went wrong. Nevertheless if the outcome is good, you can be having a tremendous time of your life! I guess then it will beats everything else; all the fights and heart-breaking.
