Opposites repel !!

"Opposites Attract!!”...It’s a well known phrase... or should i call it... a law!! A nice law stated by a very great scientist... He saw the opposite poles of a magnet attract, and made this law... great work!!
But... What have we interpreted out of this?? Was it meant for any other thing except the magnet??? Let me just run through the ideas in my head...
We have generalized this law and made it applicable to humans also... So we generally have this mentality that if we share opposite ideas or have contradicting nature... We should attract... Well I have some different ideas... or maybe a different angle to this which I believe would change the entire meaning of this law!
So.. Consider a couple... Opposite ideas… contradicting nature... enjoy each others company and enter into a relationship.. All is going well… Now comes the time to make decisions.. I don’t see any chance that their ideas would possibly match… their way of thinking... ideologies... etc would not run in sync.. If both of them don’t stay on the same page, there is nothing that would ever be sorted out… All that I can see is... Differences would increase... Dissatisfaction leading to fights…
If these fights need to be solved, both the parties should agree to one single point and take actions accordingly... In a matter of time, they would agree to one another’s views... And the result would be that both would start thinking alike… Now is when their problems would end...
I don’t see opposites attracting... As long as people are not on the same lines, they cannot possibly gel with each other... So as far as I am concerned... this law doesn’t prove true in case of humans.. So I think we should just stop stereotyping the entire law... Let’s just let the magnets enjoy the law!!
