Especially religion/money.

Politics can work if one person is political and the other doesn't give much of a shite. Which is rare to find these days, but there are still folks out there who just don't care about politics, and I find it refreshing.

Someone who was willing to put up with my shite until one of us dies. Someone who has the same life goals. And someone who is down to get down when it’s time to get down.

My wife and I differ on politics and religion. She doesn't care about politics at all. Hates it actually and bitches anytime I'm watching something on the TV that's political. We just don't talk about politics, so it works. She votes, and I've never asked her who she voted for, but she knows who I've voted for.

I'm indifferent on religion, while she claims to be religious. But as soon as I mention going to church, she's all "does that mean I have to get up early on Sunday?!!?" so the conversation stops there.

But we both come from families where the mom was religious and the dad was indifferent, so I guess she's used to that since her dad never went to church.

Ah that makes a lot of sense regarding church/religion.

My wife couldn't give less of a shite about politics. I'm very interested in the political sphere, but it's not something we talk about. She's conservative if you talk to her about issues, and she votes Republican when we go to the ballot box, but after casting her vote, she goes back to caring about other shite.

Me and this girl dated for 3 years in high school. Had a very ugly breakup... four years later we somehow were dating again, however, this time she had a new group of friends and they were TERRIBLE. I made it last for as long as I could but i couldn't deal with them anymore.

If she surrounds herself with shitty people then run for the hills.

I practically look for someone i can feed off of, someone who I can go back and forth with and somebody who can put up with my shite... and now i look for the people they surround themselves with first

My first go around was someone who had a common personality, but I found that over time it was easy to get into a rut and we never pushed each other outside of our comfort zones to experience new things. Wondering if I should try someone who has an opposite personality so we fill gaps.



Its a little of both, IMO.

"Opposites attract" goes too far.

If my idea of a good time on a weekend is tailgating, going out with other couples sometimes, attending fun events, etc. (basically doing things together that we don't do during the work week) but my SO has social anxiety and hates anything besides watching Netflix on the couch for weeks at a time.. we are fundamentally incompatible.

Obviously, you and your SO are going to have some different hobbies/interests. Everyone does. But (in my opinion) a relationship is not about the grand picture - it is about the day to day living. And if you both have very different ideas of what constitutes your default lifestyle, you're just not going to work. That goes for money, moral beliefs, social activities, etc.

Dated a girl that I was really similar to for 3 years and it went about as you described.

Im looking for someone with similar interests but different personality. I think thats the key. Being able to ave common ground to do things together with but have someone that can push you through having a different attitude/demeanor (while still being positive anyway)


and blowjobs

Or just marry a woman that doesn't give a shite about politics (they're easy to find). My wife is intelligent but she's completely uninterested in politics and that suits me just fine. I can ramble on with all my fricked up retarded theories and she'll just go along with it.
