Similar; more things to talk about.

Oh, similar all the way. I'm not even friends with anybody who doesn't share at least some of my interests, how am I gonna date somebody I have nothing in common with?

Similar, most definitely. Not that they have to share ALL my interests of course (some time apart is good too) but if they don't share a lot of them, what the heck will we do together? 😕

Many people say that if someone is different from you, your relationship is more willing to be refreshing. However, if that's the case, there are more possibilities of fighting about meaningless things. I believe you have to share, at least, 30% or 40% of likings/values/points of view in common, and absolutely you'll not be bored, on the contrary, both of you'll enjoy.

I prefer someone similar. Why? Because it's easier to start a relationship (in general context) and because I'm not that outgoing (about myself)

Similar; I at least want my partner to agree with me on deal-breaking points, otherwise we'd certainly have a huge fight somewhere along the line. You can only put up with someone who is your polar opposite for so long.

I'd want someone who is similar and yet still have different interests.
I mean if we were really that similar I fear there's not enough room for this relationship for the two of us.

I would prefer to have some things in common for us to talk about and relate to each other but also a lot of differences so that we can both explore new things, plus, boredom will be more likely not to come and kill us. 😀

Alice came to a fork in the road.
"Which road do I take?" she asked.
"Where do you want to go?" responded the Cheshire cat.
"I don't know," Alice answered.
"Then," said the cat, "it doesn't matter."
