though being too similar can be even more of a chore. and i mean in ways even beyond emotional labor and taxation. like i've noticed with capricorn, i feel like our similar goals/values might be the core of the connection. but even if we have good intentions towards each other, not much push and pulll goes on- little movement.

the same habit of giving each other space. if one of us doesn't break this 'virtue', i imagine this stretching for weeks. hiding problems, trying to fix it ourselves. being distant when we don't feel stable. trying to meet each other half-way materially. you feel more betrayed when you're so similar yet somehow- it's more of an effort?

compared to making something work with someone so different from you.

the expectation ain't high, so there's only the promise of either a delightful surprise or no love lost. riskier long-term (emotional taxation) but easier to discard short-term.
