Could you date someone who doesn't have much in common with you, or has a totally different lifestyle with you?

[Extraterrestrial1999]

Yeah, already do

Yeah, as long as they are a great person and has stuff going for them

Yeah, as long as there's nothing that's a major deal breaker in the equation

Nah, too complicated

[Zack-Bann]

I tried.
Didn’t work.
Tried again.
Still didn’t work.


Now I learned my lesson:
You can start a relationship with someone who’s different but unless you start growing into the same direction with that person, them liking what you like and you liking what like it’s not gonna work.


One day you or them will wake up tired of pretending and just nuke the relationship even if there’s no major fight or argument

[NathanDavis]

yes, and I have... the similarities were not much, but they were definitely key

[Valdemort]

Interests I don't really care about, I like trying new things... lifestyle, that could be a tricky one, if you wanna move in and potentially raise kids or something together at some point.

[Abbycado]

No, I need compatibility. Not everything, obviously. I want (and have) a boyfriend that has common interests so we have things we can do together.

[Flower7]

No, I like people who have a lot in common with me.

[Apple1996]

Yeah i prefer being with someone who is the opposite as me so we can learn from each other

[HungTexan]

If things work you can develop shared experiences and have a lot in common over time.

[Jennz6]

Yes, I date lots of people and I don’t have much in common with them but they want sex with me. 💃

[Anonymous]

I could, but what would be the point? It likely would not last long.

[Nikki1989]

No, that never works.
