It depends on what you want from the relationship. I was in a relationship for 10 years, with someone I had nothing in common with. It worked only as long as we were both willing to compromise all the time. In the end, though, I realised that in order to be able to spend time together, I'd had to give up most of the things I really liked doing. And those things were an important part of my identity.
However, I am the kind of person who believes that a relationship means spending a lot of time together. There are people who think a relationship means living in the same house, but having their own separate interests. If you are that kind of person, then it could work. But make sure your partner is also happy for you to be off doing your own thing most of the time - if his/her expectations are that you will do things together, then eventually it will fall apart.

They can survive. Because every day is a learning experience. You learn from each other as well as from one another. You learn to respect each others values, learn to have faith and trust for each other. Basically that's really for any other relationship.

Sure they can! My husband & I will celebrate our 21st anniversary next month & we have almost NOTHING in common! Thats what keeps it interesting. You never get bored doing the same old things all of the time! I'm not saying it's easy, you have to work at a marraige, but its all worth it in the end.

They can survive, but they will do it much better if they are apart with others with whom they have things in common with. The lust leaves, but common interests live on. Good luck

I ask myself the same question every day. My answer so far- I don't think so, not forever. There needs to be something in common so you can grow together and enjoy time together. Living in parallel is just not living!

They can survive as long as both people want it to survive, if you dont think it can, why do you stay?
