Writing exercise

I have a friend who called Hui that is my best gfriend in shanghai. We always do erevrything with each other but actually we are so different. For example I like furits, milk and desserts however she hate furits also she never drinks milk and she always say:’Don’t eat cake or pastry, they must let you fat.’ Nevertheless, our relationship is still very good. I think it is a nice relationship that I want it because I don’t believe there are two identical preson in the world and most of people always say:’if we like different things or we have different hobbies, we don’t fit. I don’t agree this opinion. I don’t think a good relationship has to be exactly the same and in my opinion, both are comfortable is more important even maybe you like rock but I like blues.

I think it is a nice relationship and I want it like that, because I don’t believe there are two identical people in the world and most people always say: “if we like different things or we have different hobbies, we don’t fit.” I don’t agree with this opinion. I don’t think people in a good relationship have to be exactly the same and in my opinion,  being comfortable is more important even if you like rock but I like blues.
