You can't let music and movies define your relationship. There are some things that almost all lasting relationships have - how about mutual respect for one another? Do the two of you enjoy simply looking at each other in the face, the sound of each other's voice, or just being in the same place at the same time?
What made you start dating him in the first place? Do the two of you make each other laugh? When you went on your first date, the two of you decided on a mutual place to meet so there is one thing in common for you right there?
There are some differences that can destroy a relationship - such as one is clean and one is dirty, one works hard and one is lazy, one smokes and one doesn't, one pays the bills and one doesn't etc...
Find qualities about this guy that make you like him. And if his list of good qualities is long, then don't let his taste in music and movies ruin a potentially good match for you.
Really can't say...
Some people say that if two people don't have anything common they ain't gonna match.
But then other people say that if people are different.. They have more interesting time with each other...
What I would say.. Both are true.. Non individual is the same.. Everyone is different...
Date him.. and see what happens.. If you like different movies or music..why should it affect your relationship in any sorta way.
If you like him and he likes you.. If it is meant to be.. No doubt it shall last.
Take care :-)
I think it can.
Music and moveis aren't the most important things. And it would be fun to learn about the pop culture he enjoys, you might end up liking his music or songs. and vice versa. I am sure you will start to like some of what he likes, just don't ceompletely forget what you enjoy and become is clone. I have a friend who started dating this guy she didn't really have anything in common with and after like 2 mnths she is his clone. she only lsitens to what he likes and etc. its annoying
I think it could, if you're maybe more similar in your personalities or something.
Has it come between you at all? Or do you think it would?
And you could also make it last by being open to your differences, trying stuff the other likes even if it might not be your first choice. Maybe you guys can find some more stuff you'd both like.

Well my girlfriend are just like that. I love big action movies with lots of guns and explosions and stuff while she likes love story's and hates action movies. She really likes country music while I am mostly into metal and hard rock. There isn't really a lot we have in common except some political views and the weather...And we have been together for going on 3+ years.
So for me it really just depends on how much you love the other person and how much you can put up with the others likes and dislikes. When we are together we change music stations often or just put it on a mix one that plays both of our types. And we rotate movie experiences love,action,love,action ect... And sometimes the different tastes makes for some nice playful arguing but nothing serious.
I sure do, but it depends what you want in a relationship. Do you want to be in constant sync with each other or do you prefer to explore the differences between the two of you. Both can get boring depending on the type of person you are..
Figuratively speaking, if you know your own book, do you want to have a copy on the side as well for in case you forgot stuff, need help or reassurance? Or do you want a few recognizable chapters where you still have to write the rest of the book together.
You can be two strong oaks side by side. On the other hand, water and fire gives steam :)
Of course the possibility is there, but I'm not sure how high it is. Keep dating him if you like him, if not, then stop.
