Fourteen years ago, Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey were happily married and had their own show on MTV. In an interview with Complex.com, producer Sue Kolinksy of Newlyweds spoke out about how the celebrity exes functioned as a newly married couple. The producer shared that their maturity levels contrasted and felt a sense of tension between the former celebrity couple. Kolinksy also added the only thing the couple seemed to have in common was their music careers. The couple split after the show’s third season and are now happy in their new marriages.
This reality Tv show exposed the differences between this celebrity couple. How can you maintain a happy relationship when you and your partner are opposite from one another?
Cupid’s Advice:
Opposites can attract one another, but sometime couples who are very different from each other run into more problems than those who are alike. Here’s how you can keep the spark when you and your partner are total opposites:
1. Keep finding common ground: Keep trying to find similarities in activities and special interests. If you both enjoy golfing, play a game together. Also try new activities and see if you both can enjoy it as a couple!

2. Embrace your differences: Do not put negative light on your differences, instead use them to your advantage as a couple. If your partner is the outdoorsy type, let them help you love nature. The contrasting traits you have individually can balance the relationship if you embrace them!
