So while it's great if you can find someone who you have a lot in common with in that department, it's not always the best thing to base friendships and other relationships on.

Yeah, althought it's usually the case you at least have some common ground with your friends or else conversations tend to lull.
Interestingly though... I think I'd probably hate to go out with a female version of myself, or even a girl that was massively into music on my kind of level... it sounds chauvanist I guess but it's more my preference; I quite like girlfriends who aren't half as pretentious or arty as I am. Personality is key when it comes to lay-deez for relationships, and looks play their part too. But just because some girl I know has a penchant for krautrock and mid-eighties art rock I'm not going to want to get with them. I prefer more straightforward girls I suppose.
