I Want To Connect With Similar People Like Me

I fail to understand why anyone would want to connect to people similar to themselves...it is pointless why would you want to hear the same thing over and over from different people...oh wait that's how people reinforce their behaviors or beliefs. Instead of connecting with similar people i think we should connect with those who are different in comparison to ourselves. I think it is one of the only ways to expand your horizons.

Most things would need to be validated by others. The more people that validate the ideas you have the better off you are... A few people on a website agreeing with you should not give people the idea that the world agrees with them or that it is a societal norm. People want to strike down societal norms as being wrong but if we did not have some sort of basis for behavior then it would be a very different life. When it says Similarthat means almost like...not quite the same ...otherwise it would be cloneworld ...catch my drift?!
