Opposite Match (Simply put)

by Eric Corsten

Have you heard the term (opposite match) before?" Chocolate and Peanut Butter: Peanut butter and jelly:

Oil and Vinegar: Mr. White (Heisenberg) and Jesse Pinkman: Snoop Dogg and Martha Stewart:

Take these pairs. What do these pairs have in common with each other? Very little, and hence,

matched opposites.

Two great things (Subjectively speaking of course) while wonderful by themselves, when

combined, they become exceptional. I believe the term is used most commonly when talking

about marriage and divorce. Unfortunately, when looking for a mate, the first thing you want is

someone you like, so naturally, you're going to try to find a match. Someone with the same ideas

and habits. Basically, you're looking for you. Why? Because you're an asshole, that's why.

Ideally, if you were to get married (May the Lord have mercy on your soul) you would want to

find your matched opposite. You want to say at some point "You complete me." to someone.

Someone that has the qualities that you simply don't. I guess I'm preaching to the choir a bit

here, as a very high percentage of you absolutely know this. Stick with me though, it gets

better. I'm simply laying the foundation for something much bigger. Simply put, matched

opposites are people, places or things, that when combined, become more powerful, more

exceptional, or just simply better. There is a negative side too, I'm not going to go too much into

it but this is why Bullies bully, why spouses get abused and so on. Smart kids are natual

matched opposites for the bully, creating an attraction. This of course, is not going to sit well

with the bully so he must lash out. Simply put.

Again, I am not an expert on these things. A scholar will might say, "Well, it's really not that

simple, there are many dynamics at play here and let me rattle off a bunch of useless scenarios

to show how many words I can say in a row." and then he'll hit me with "Knowledege." Think

about it. Do opposites attract? Yes. Are Bullies and the academically gifted opposites? Yes. Ok,

just checking. Does it make scenes that the bully lashes out because of these unwanted feelings?

Absolutely. Remember, a therapist won't tell you this directly, because if you understood these

things then you wouldn't depend on them. They depend on you being unwell. They went to

school to make money off of you. Yes, that's right, I'm the

therapy secret shopper. They were taking notes that they knew would never really do anything. I

was taking notes as well. In conclusion out of 27 therapists, all but one said anything useful.

She said I need to use my anger. I didn't think she realized that I would be using it to trash

therapists. Yeah, that is what Ima Gunna Do. I'm guessing I lost quite a few readers by now.

There will be those who will stick to their guns and dismiss me as a quack, and those who go

"Ok, he's on to the game so let's be sure to call him a quack.: Then there are

people. People with heart and imagination. If your still with me, one of two things are going on.

Either you are one of these people or you are so irritated by me you just can't help it but to keep

on. I'm moving to chapter two. The theory of the extreme match opposite.
