I think it comes down to humility,sincerity,and always seeking to listen and learn

My best friend and I have a lot of synchronicity ...I guess him

Funily enough an ex of mine in a lot of ways, she would be the closest.
We both had shit childhoods and marriages, a violent alcoholic parent, drug f$%#@d brothers, were decent amatuer swimmers, kept fish as a hobby, our exs had the same psych diagnosies, we were both into computers when we met and had both established and run multiple successful small businesses.
Many differences also, but, I share my birthday with her grandmother and she shares hers with mine and both grandmothers were called "Dorrie".

I don't know if anybody has paralleled my life, but if there is then I feel truly sorry for the poor bastard.

I'm fine with both. I didn't care for the Beatles boy band phase but it was still pretty good. The stones have made so much great music over the decades. It's a double win for music lovers.
