a different version of the "could you love someone who does not love sonic youth" thread, that I though was ridiculous, of course its possible to love someone who has a different opinion concerning ONE band. but could you love a person who refuses to listen to anything beyond the radio? i once though that it was impossible, but i have met someone that has radically changed my opinion. in high school, i dated the same girl for three years, and she had decent in music, not great, but she also loved to party, liked that i plkayed guitar and skateboarded, and she was the first girl i loved. i then went of to college, needless to say it didnt work out, it sucked, i got depressed, all the normal bullshit. from then on i dated three different girls. first one i met at an animal collective show, she had great taste in music, we dated for about a month, and i found that all we did was argue needlessley about music and pop culture, and it was boring and irriating dating a girl with the exact same interests as me. i then met a girl through a friend, and we bonded over drugs and ornette coleman. she was absolutley stunningly beautiful, but obviously we ended up getting too fucked up on drugs and after two months i couldnt stand her. the third girl isnt worth mentioning but she also had great taste in music. but currently, i am dating a girl who doesnt like or care about good music at all, is extremly preppy, doesnt read much more than romance novels, and shes in a fucking SORORITY. and yknow what, im completley in love with her. her bitchy sorority friends all give her shit for dating some "werid sketchy dude who wears ripped jeans and has headphones on all the time", and she tells them to fuck off. that my friends, is charachter. moral of the story, there is so much more to relationships than taste in music and pop culture, and its pointless to go around looking around for a girlfriend/boyfriend who digs the boredoms. do people agree with me or do i just sound like a sappy deuche?
