I am high strung type A person who never sits down and I was always attracted to the same type of men. Until I discovered that I get along much better with people who are opposite of me: easy going laid back agreeable who aren’t in a rush all the time and don’t need things certain way. My husband and I laugh that I speed him up and he slows me down so at the end we achieve the same speed. Ha I never knew it’s actually good match for me. Now I guess I know.

You make good logical points here and oft times I've thought this is the case in most situations but with me, I wonder because, I am the reserved and somewhat quiet one. In groups I will fall by the wayside for the most part and say in the background. you get the gist. But all of the women I've met are indeed the opposite and it hasn't worked out well. Sometimes I wonder if a quiet and reserved person would work better with me.
But keep in mind my experience. when I say the opposite that also means my experience has been with controlling women that are dominant in the relationship and perhaps there is a more outgoing type that isn't necessarily like that but I just have never found anyone like that yet.
