I think the problem with opposites attract is activities. It's not often the other person wants to change their lifestyle for the other because of opposing interests.

So, while in some ways a relationship with your opposite is advantageous, it's only if you can make a lifestyle that shows you working as a team. That means either doing things together and using your opposite skills to succeed in the ventures, or setting aside plenty of alone time to do you own things, then coming together and finding common ground in the relationship.
