The Essence of This Relationship
The Complement relationship resembles a symbiotic partnership in an ecosystem. One person's concavity fits perfectly into the other's convexity; weaknesses are filled by strengths. The chemical balance in this relationship is remarkably precise -- like an enzyme and its substrate, their shapes inherently require each other. Even the balance of neurotransmitters may be optimized when the two are together.
The magic of the Complement type lies in the liberation of never needing to feel ashamed of what you cannot do. There is no need to force yourself to imitate what the other person does naturally. You conserve energy and focus on your own area of expertise. From the standpoint of efficient allocation of cognitive resources, this is supremely rational. The brain is an organ that constantly seeks to conserve energy, and the Complement relationship satisfies that instinct.
Tips to Improve This Relationship
Explicitly acknowledge each other's contributions
In a Complement relationship, one person's contributions tend to be taken for granted. Regularly put your gratitude into words. When contributions are recognized, complementarity becomes a chosen collaboration rather than dependence.
Maintain a learning attitude toward the other's domain
Just because you complement each other does not mean you should completely abandon the other's domain. Having a basic understanding enables more effective cooperation and deepens your respect for the other person.
Test your independence regularly
In a healthy Complement relationship, basic functioning is maintained even without the other person. Occasionally act on your own intentionally. Confirming that your partnership is a choice rather than a dependency keeps the relationship healthy.
