We just spend a three day weekend together out of town and although we had a small discussion, overall we had a great time. However, he said something that I am not sure how to take; he said “we have nothing in common.” Which is true. I followed up that statement by asking him why then he continuous hanging out with me, his response was that it is because I am different and exciting. I would like to hear your opinion about this; do you think that even though we don’t have anything in common, but because he finds me different and exciting our relationship has a future?

You've had "ups and downs"? At 3 months into a relationship, what could the downs be? There should be nothing but ups! What are these downs?
If a guy says he sees no future, believe him. Don't invest too much into this guy.

Hi
If your relationship is going well at the moment - go with the flow and enjoy it.
Generally people who seem like polar opposites don't make good life partners but they can have great passionate short term relationships.
On the other hand, it can occasionally turn out that, after some time of dating, the couple have a lot more in common than they thought.

Yes! There is a lot of hope in your relationship having a future. When I find someone different and exciting, it usually means I'm very attracted to them and maybe even falling a little for them. "We have nothing in common" sounds like he's speaking with bewilderment and maybe even a little bit of fear...fear of falling for you too quickly. How can he find you so exciting, when you are so different? He is confused, excited and a little apprehensive. Sounds like love to me:)
