I am new to this forum out of curiosity since IPKKND got over, wanted to see 4Lions new show. But, then I saw ur post, and I couldn't help but reply. I have a doubt that they do actually work in the long run. I am sure in the short run everything feels happy and nice, since the couple is still in that phase of attraction and love, and their belief that they can make it work. If two people are that opposite, it ends up in a separation. I have known my friend's cousins a long time since childhood. Each of them married to a person so opposite, infact I was shocked at first how will their marriage work in the long run?! I had my doubts but one cannot actually say that on their face, as at that point of time one is so in love, that they think they would have a successful relationship. They all ended up in separation eventually, and after that point of time, you do become bitter about another relationship. So for now, they are single. Personally, it depends on those two people involved in the marriage. If such complete opposites do marry, one of them has to bent in the long run. If both of them are headstrong, and want to do things that they feel is right, that by no doubt ends up in a divorce or separation. When that actually happens, those two people do wonder, how the heck they got this far in the first place?! But yes, in a relationship, of complete opposites, one of them has to be sacrificing to have a successful long run marriage. I doubt though, b/c it take a lots of hard work, patience, and at times facing of losing one's own self respect and ideals. So, in my point from what I have seen and have known friends, who are that opposites like Asad and Zoya, it ends up in a divorce, sadly. B/c on the screen it looks good, but in real life it takes a 1000times more effort to make it work.
