Why do tables and chairs HAVE to match?

Seriously. Why is it necessary for tables and chairs to match? I just don't get it. I really don't get it. Someone in my life is obsessing over getting rid of AN amazing table just to get new chairs from a relative. In which we are going to be getting a crappy table. Ugh! Help me out here please.

1. They don't *have* to match exactly, but it looks better if they go together somewhat. If the styles are similar enough (or if you don't care what anyone thinks), you can keep the table.
2. Because we live in a world where everybody thinks that everything has to be uniform. I have 3 different chairs that I got because I liked them. None of them match AND I don't even have a table yet! When I find "the one" though, I'll have chairs!!LOL! So I agree with you.
3. Apparently the other person in your life says so. But if the chairs look ok with your existing table why not keep it?
4. The don' t just buy new chairs
5. Rule #48.
6. My grandmaw had this amazing table. And the chairs didn't match and the set looked amazing. She bought it seperate though.
7. they dont have to match, if you dont want them too, just cover the table with some fabric that matches the chairs?
