Never did anyone hook me up.
If they did, I'd wish it would be because of some common taste in music (or at least curiosity about music), films and books ...and not because we're both short and wear glasses.

Why do people think that if you're short then you'll only like short blokes?? Or if you wear glasses then you must like men in glasses? I have really curly hair and if my friend does her "Ooooh, if you were single I reckon you'd really like this bloke" and it always ends up being some short bloke with curly hair. Why would I want to be with someone that looks like me????

The weird thing is, they actually do that in movies, ending as a successful relationship.

I was watching this VERY bad teenage flick, and at the end the stereotypical"overweight with low self-esteem" female character, meets a male "overweight with low self-esteem" character, and it was like love from first sight. And when it came to talk to each other, the conversation was:
-Oh hey!
-yeah...
-Do you like cookies?
-I LOVE cookies!!

So, WTF?!
Are people really hooking up, bcz they eat the same kind of food? Which is probably the most popular kind of food...

Really? Movies tend to follow the "opposites attract" formula. Well not physically it's almost always hot guy meets hot girl but I mean in terms of personality.

I don't think a relationship could work if it was someone who was completely different from me but I wouldn't want a girl who was simply me with a vagina either.

Well it was a sub-sub-plot in a movie that considers "overweight" as some kind of personality.

Dude every goddamn movie ever treats overweight like a personality.

And yeah that's offensive to suggest that fat people belong to each other and it can't work the other way. Thank god for all those sitcoms that follow the "ugly guy/hot wife" formula.

That's genius, life reflecting script writing, just there!

I guess I'd be hard pushed to be able to work out a relationship with somebody who was completely different to me (and REALLY tall guys are kind of out of the question - it's a logistical nightmare) personality wise. If I met someone with the same issues, short temper and general mentalness that I have then I'd end up killing them within a week. So to an extent, the whole opposites attract thing does certainly have it's merits.
