Variety is good though. Through our differences as lovers we can take each other to new places, expand our imaginations and the depth of our connections with each other. As for same dominant intelligences being compatible, I would agree with you axinia. You can add me and my wife to your list. And I think the reason may be in the ideals that our intelligence places the most value on, in our case "natural". This really helps us empathise and understand on a deep level what is truly important to the other even when we are very different people in many ways; she an extrovert with less linguistic intelligence, and me more introverted with higher linguistic intelligence. I see what you mean.

What happened to the theory "Opposites attract". Even my personal experience suggest that people having same level of leading intelligence coexists better. On a funny note: we should ask couples to take the intelligence test before marriage. :lol: Interesting…

But I have a feeling that it may necesserely be the leading type of Inteligence, lay be one of the leading ones...May be his second or third type is linguisitc ? Your yours spatial? :) Or may be your couple is an exseption that certifies the rule?? I see your point, Nita!

But I don't think type of intelligence matters so much as long as one can communicate. For example my husband is high in spatial intelligence and its a huge help when finding places! If both of us were poor in spatial intelligence it would definitely have been a problem! :) So in a way I think its nature's way of getting us together!

That is only my personal obseration :) But if you take my husband and me - we are quite opposite in so many ways, however we found out that we both have the linguistic intelligence, I was really surprised. But then I realised that the palying with words makes a huge part of our interactions... Then I noticed the same with other couples. Surely it does not explain everyhting, but can work for many. I guss we are also not that much aware of our intelligence (like everyone suspected me being "picture smart", but this is actually not my leading intellingence. Developed, yes, but not the leading one.) Nita, thanks!

However I personally do not think its related to happiness in marriage. I think opposites can attract and in fact often complement each other.
