flames or flight?

as i was out walking this evening i was contemplating relationships. i was specifically trying to, again, determine whether a particular male friend of mine and i were too similar to ever consider anything more. i mean, it seems we never disagree on anything, and we are very interested in almost all the same things. while we haven't spent excessive amounts of time together, in the time we have spent, we've not once argued. i was wondering if this meant that a romantic relationship could never blossom, simply because without friction, there can be no fire. and without fire, from whence does the energy come to fuel the passion?

thing is, as i was pondering this, the image of two dolphins, swimming synchronically through the sea, soaring effortlessly through the air, came to my mind. and that is when i considered flight. what if, instead of friction and flame, a relationship like this could produce fluidity and flight?

is it possible that two souls could be so similar that the relationship could be dramatic, or is it doomed to be dull? is it possible that the drama could be external instead of internal?

i really do not know.
