She is a Do'er and i'm a Be'er - She wants to do something and i'd rather just Be where i am.
He is willing to face any issue head-on, and because of this, we are able to resolve things much better than if it were up to me (since I hate conflict.) He is more passionate than I as well and moves me to action when I would otherwise be content with things as they are.
He is excellent with our finances. Me? Not so much. He also slows me down when I am frantically doing things.
His patience and his need to do things right no matter how long it takes is a great balance for my impatience. His microscopic attention to detail and my big picture attention to detail work well together. He also brings the intellect to the table which makes up for my goofy, more elementary contributions :).
What???? . tes...?
He is gentle where I am ruthless. He is cheerful where I am pessimistic. He knows how to navigate people's feelings where I tend to offend without meaning to. He is everyone's friend.
She's better at dealing with talky people than I.
She balances me out by keeping priorities in focus when I sometimes get sidetracked.
When I am not calm, he is. If I am having a melt down, he is good at focusing on the core issue, and reassuring. If he is having a meltdown, I'm the calm one. Good balance.
She keeps me lighthearted, having fun, connected to my feelings and teaches me to be a sharp listener :)
She can manage our finances, all while running a tight home schedule.
The first thing that comes to mine is that he's a planner, which I love, because I am certainly not, lol!
We balance each other out very well. We're aware of one another's weaknesses and work together to compliment them with the other's strengths.
He speaks assertively & isn't afraid of speaking his mind. Is more energetic than I am & is also very handy around the house :)
lol...she is very organize and have things straighten out and that makes up for my weakness of not being organize n being on top of things
