Rules-of-thumb are seldom reliable indicators of anything.

There used to be a neighbor lady a couple of blocks from us who was nice enough, and had an annual yard party for people from the surrounding blocks. But, despite being married to a prominent retired college professor (archaeologist I think), she was into astrology. First thing she did was ask my wife and I what our birthdays were, then blarted out in mixed company that our relationship was surely doomed, our signs were not compatible.

She's dead now and my wife and I are still together. So there.

Dang it, was mid-response and got distracted at work and lost the response. I think it depends upon what they're opposite in. I tend to be a follower in regular life and submissive in bed, so I very much prefer a take-charge man.

Obviously you have to have some shared interests, but I also think it's important to have things you do outside each other.

Bad science for sure........opposites can stimulate & excite each other!

Opposites if they are open minded can learn a great deal from the other person.
