Please, Just Let Me Die Already

Wow. Just wow. I am not even going to dignify that with an response.
And SWM: :wink:
Jimmy the Squid:
Is that because you think I was taking you seriously or you're actually offended by the idea of it not mattering that someone doesn't like Jawbreaker?
Allybee:
just out of curiosity, how important is it to all of you that your significant other shares your taste in music, art, etc?
I guess that for me, this type of similarity plays a really big part in attraction. I hung out with this cool guy today who likes all the music that I've been getting into lately, and it just made it easier to hit it off. I can't imagine being in a serious relationship with someone whose music tastes drastically differ from my own because music is really important to me and it's something that I enjoy sharing.

Accept that not everyone is going to like the same things that you do and that having similar music tastes is really what a relationship should be based on.

Jimmy the Squid:
Certain similarities can be kind of important but they become less so as you get to know the person. You might start to like someone because they have similar tastes or interests to you but they only need to be similar, not exactly the same. For instance, my girlfriend doesn't like black metal. Since I'm in a black metal band (and obviously really like black metal) this could be a point of contention between us but honestly you just find out other things that you like to do together. Trying to force your interests onto someone isn't going to help things because no one wants to feel like their partner is trying to change them. I don't try to force Ingelise to listen to Gorgoroth and she doesn't try to force me to listen to Nickelback.
By all means take a shot at introducing them to something you think is rad because they might think it is rad but there are more important things to worry about than if you both like the same band.
