If two of you are alike, then one of you is not needed.

When choosing your spouse
You're wording it like you go down to the store and thump a few of them like they're watermelons
Date around until you find someone you like. I wouldn't hop into anything through the conscious prism of "will you be a suitable wife." Seems like that's a recipe for nitpicking every little flaw about someone, and we're all flawed

My first marriage was to my personality twin. Driven, strong willed, opinionated, aggressive, unwilling to relinquish power. The goods were GREAT, but the bad was BAD. In hindsight, it's a miracle it lasted as long as it did.
My current wife is much more passive and solely focused on her family. It's worked brilliantly for the last 10 years.

wife 1.0 ultimately became a codependent nag so when I had chance to pursue wife 2.0, I looked for:
Independent with a good career
Did not want kids but is great with my kids
Intelligent
Athletic
Has a great network of friends

It sounds cliche to say, but you should only “marry” a “best friend”... and if the person you with isn’t in the list of “best friends”, then keep looking.
First time was for looks, second time was for personality connection

I like her and she likes me back and she showed me her boobies and I like them too.

When choosing your spouse
I don't remember choosing my spouse, but I knew very early on she was going to be my wife. I also don't remember ever making a list of qualities I was looking for, but when she came along I knew she had qualities I wanted in a life partner. Pretty, caring, strong, independent, selfless, thoughtful, charismatic, and on and on. Almost 20 years in we're both still very much in love, but there have been a lot of bumps along the way.
We have very different personalities, and share only a handful of shared interests outside of our family. We came from very different backgrounds. Neither of us have ever pressured the other to change to fit a certain mold. I love her for who she is, and she loves me for who I am. Do I wish at times that she enjoyed going to live music events as much as I do? Sure. But that's not her, and that's not what I married her for, so I don't try to force her into it.

Breakfast making abilities, looks, and crazy level below normal matrix.

They either compliment you or control you. That is the only two options you truly have. Pick a side.

Similar interests, different traits, if that makes sense.
I'm much more laid back than my wife, but we both enjoy the same things (travel, hosting/entertaining, food, drink, etc...). We balance each other out, I ground her a bit, while she pushes me (especially earlier in our relationship).
