I always wonder about people who are together since they are so alike. You are basically with yourself so how can that be interesting. My wife and I have some similar interests and other ones which are very different, it is these differences which makes being with the one you love even better I think.
Take our taste in music for example. I grew up listening to hair band metal in the 80s, I still listen to that kind of music mostly with a few other things interspersed. My wife however prefers more melodic songs, not so loud and I do enjoy listening to some of her music as well. However this difference between us doesn't automatically mean we are not meant to be together.
I'm firmly of the belief that being with someone who expands your horizon and likes some different things makes life even better, especially when you love that person. If you can enjoy doing those things together then it becomes perfect. Even if you didn't start out knowing about or doing that something when you were on your own before you met that person.
Learning about these things and making them part of your life together is much better than just finding someone who is exactly like you and supposedly "compatible". I think that is part of why my parents really weren't sure me and my wife were suited together at first, it took them a long time to realise the differences between the two of us are part of what makes us so great together.
