I was ready to be all "the 'wine mom' cliche is the socially acceptable way for women to be alcoholics", but then her consumption was actually reasonable. How dare she.  e: OP posted:I'm not a big drinker and my family doesn't drink at all. Very religious. I can see now that my frame of reference is off. Thank you/ OP posted:I haven't noticed it affecting her ability to function. Your comment is helpful because I'm realizing her family's culture always serves wine with dinner so maybe she just sees it as normal.

Yeah, by those comments he comes off as less of a dunderhead. I can see how coming from a teetotaler background can skew ‘how much is too much/how often is too often?’

My BF [31M] made me [F27] feel like a lesser person for wanting to watch a lesbian Netflix movie. Says "that's all you think about, are you stupid? That movie won't add anything to your life."quote:Okay, so we've been together for 6 years. Prior to meeting him, he knew I only dated women. We got passed that and our friendship turned into something more. Long story short we are dating for 6 years. I'm open to everybody that I have always liked women and he never cared because we're still together. In the beginning, I wasn't sure I wanted to be with him because of course he is a man and that's not what I wanted for my life. But as the years went by he showed me to be a good person and our relationship thrived.

all the lesbians I know are extremely cliquish, and seem to focus 90% of their attention on their lesbianism. imagine being around someone that's a fanatic about their sexuality, like every minute of the day is a crossfit wod on being a gay/hetero/furry. some of them can hold it together for a brief period before busting out local lesbian bar politics or whatever the gently caress. poo poo gets old. I doubt this woman is just occasionally whipping out the lesbian side and probably doesnt realize how obnoxious shes being.

if you have long periods of your life without a romantic relationship, I guess that doesn't mean there's something wrong with you unless you regret it. I guess youd have to wonder what the gently caress will really change in the future, but reality is the quality of the dating pool declines rapidly as you age, and quality women still available are not patient with stupid newbies that havent figured themselves out when it comes to relationships. you will probably die alone.

I think if you look at it more generally, people that have a single issue they're super super passionate about can be a mismatch with others that don't share that passion Like if your political buddy just can't stop talking about politics every single time you hang out, it can get real real old if you don't care about that thing

Women keep telling you about their lesbianism so you'll zip your pants back up and go somewhere else.

If he's being always allowing her to make choices on what to watch and then is getting pissy about what she picks, it's his own drat fault. Also to call her "alienated and extremist", he sounds like some douche who thought he cured her bisexuality with his dick.

The dude in the reddit story is from an foreign background which may make him even less receptive to her stuff so yeah that's not really a great example of constructive discourse. When people are passionate about something it's going to feature prominently in their life, so it makes sense to think about compatibility there too.

Eh, any way you spend your time is an interest, even if it’s not a hobby IMO. Shared interests do help when the relationship is old and comfortable and you both have an easy excuse to hang out without going out on a date. That being said, you can always broaden your horizons and enrich each other’s life by sharing interests that you both care about. That is a MUCH stronger foundation than dating someone based on the same shallow pop culture likes and then being shocked when you found out you’re incompatible outside of that.

This is just this dude thinking he could do better because he's in shape and rich and working backward from there. that's as close to an interest as most people get. OFC, you really shouldn't need to be into exactly the same things to get along with your spouse, but nothing in that post suggests either of them have anything else going for them, either.

If you're really into camping I can see being with someone that also enjoys that so you can do it together If you're really into music you can sometimes find a partner that is also into music and then you can write or listen to music together If you're making really good cash and enjoy playing videogames and would like a partner that also enjoys that part of your life, seems reasonable to me

yeah I dont understand all these internet personalities that can only handle a partner that share their exact interests. my wife and I have like 0 hobbies in common, neither of us even really have the physical capability or talent to do what the other one excels at (she's an artist for example, I can't draw a stick figure). we still do a ton of everyday things together as a couple.

the camping one maybe a little different since that's probably reflective of a bunch of fundamental differences in your lifestyles and priorities, if one of you is outdoorsy and the other wants to sit inside and watch netflix all day that sounds fuckin miserable
