Do you like or hate other people who are similar to you?

[luffy4]

this means Personality and/interests wise

Personally I dont like people who have the same personality as me because its like two N ends of a magnet together but i like most people who have the same interests

[God]

I don't think any of my friends have the same personalities. The only general quality of my closest friends is that they are all freaks; I just can't stand people who claim to be 'normal' or 'sane.'

I can't say that I have a single friend aside from my Girlfriend...not for the last 6 years actually. Thinking back to high school,. I was always the alpha-friend in my group and each of the others simply followed. I guess it comes down to: I like people who are like me, but less socially powerful; and dislike those who appose my rank.

When people are wild as me then I normally stay away from them, we might cause a combustion of extreme randomness


but when people think like me, then I would be very much attracted to them more.

you mean you have no friends or no friends with similar to you?

[Sprung]

OMG MAGNETS


Also, I like people for who they are.

OMG MAGNETS

Goddamn you beat me to it.

Also, I, uh, I guess I like people with similar tastes? I tend to shy away from the partying frat boy type though. No offense to any partying frat boys reading this. Same goes for similar females. Make no mistake, this doesn't mean I don't think they can be decent human beings, but rather I don't tend to initiate anything with them because I consider them "out of my league" so to speak. If that makes sense. You can criticize me for that, but that's just how I am.

But anyway, even if our interests aren't similar, I can still get along with people who merely respect mine. Like, I have a friend who's not huge into gaming but he was totally cool with me being a nerd and we get along just fine.

Yeah, that's the best answer I got, take it or leave it.

[luffy4]

the title says ARE similar to you not ARE NOT. but close enough lol

[Elin]

I like some of them, but I like plenty of people who aren't that similar to me as well. For the most part, it's not too important to me one way or the other how much I have in common with someone, and my friends are all across the board in terms of sharing interests / personality traits with me. Shared interests, in particular, have never been a big sticking point with me, and among my very close friends are both people with whom I share almost identical interests, and people who I hardly have a single hobby in common with.

There are a couple of areas, though, where I probably won't become good friends with people unless we're similar. I find it hard to get close to people who socialise mainly via heavy drinking and partying because, while I don't feel that they're bad people in any way, it's not a world I feel very comfortable in and we never get the chance to actually know each other. I'm not interested in being friends with people who are callous enough to abuse or hurt others intentionally for no good reason, nor people who are excessively arrogant and think they're more important than everyone else, as those are two personality traits that I find truly repulsive. And if people have bigoted views towards others based on race, gender, sexuality and the like, even if they're not outspoken about them, I'm never going to really like them no matter how nice they might be in other regards. Other than that, though, I think you could be pretty much anyone, and I'd probably quite like you.

Yeah, that's probably why I don't have a 'best friend' because the only friends I'm closest with live far away and enjoy the whole party scene. Or they are just really concerned with being 'cool'. I can't really relate to them because of that, it's really not my thing. I also can't really relate to my really nerdy friends because they don't like fashion and make-up, etc. I wish I could find people in-between like me. I think I'd like to have a friend just like me, that would rule. We'd both have good taste, we'd both like food, haha! It'd be awesome.

[j-sime]

I don't know anybody like me, that's the deal. I guess everyone have something in common with me, but, they're not really similar.
I don't know if I would hate them only for that, too... or like.
It is like... hating yourself

I feel, like, totally offended, dudebro!!!!

Ahem, magnets indeed. With that said, um, I suppose I like them, yesh. My closest (counting, like, two people here) friends are very similar to me in a couple of ways atleast, although only one of them laughs at my football-related jokes and the other one dun' like Mario Party. The thing is, now that I think about it, most of my close but "not as close as those other two" friends are sort of like me. Yeah.

Basically, what's important is that people find me awesome or atleast pretty great. I won't settle for "good", damn you.

[Devi]

I don't like people. I look forward to being an old person so that my crankiness can be excused by bad joints and not just a bad personality.

[lizard81288]

I like people who are like me. I'm laid back, so I like when others are laid back. Plus i'm polite too, which seems to be lacking in today's world. Sometimes I wish I could impose my personality on everybody, the world would be a better place, lol.

[gezegond]

I have yet to find someone whose personality is like me. It actually feels awful, knowing all these different people and not one of them understands me. I'm always the one who should either understand them, or just gtfo. meh
