A meditation on true love between a man and woman

At my other blog for longer essays, I have a new one on true love.

People often say - "If everyone thought and felt alike, the world would be boring. It takes all kinds to make a world."

I refute this briefly. People love each other not because they're opposites, but because they are complimentary and alike. Men and women aren't opposites, for example. Difference in gender doesn't mean opposition.

Birds of a feather do flock together. People prefer to live with people who look, think, believe, and act like them. This principle applies to love whether agape, philia, or eros.

Anyway, take a look at my essay and see what you think.
