My partner and I have surprisingly little in common when it comes to interests. I like a lot of nerd stuff: homelab, 3d printing, robotics, brewing, welding, woodworking, sci-fi, etc. They like not nerd stuff: copaganda shows, murder porn (podcasts and documentaries), dog training, cooking, etc. I like metal, they like jangly indie, we both like punk. We both really love cats.

We also both hate small talk, so we only discuss what we find to be pertinent or interesting. Since we have a lot of individual interests, we actually have a lot to talk about. We just had a really great conversation on using Docker or a VM to circumvent some silly online testing issues. Otherwise, it's just comfortable silence. I really love them.

Need for small talk suggests the contents of your thoughts revolves around topics and depth of thought suitable for small talk, I wish you the best in finding someone similar who can appreciate its value to your life. I'll be elsewhere and hope you wish me the same luck. Anything that is meaningfully impactful to my partner however, is never small talk.

Kinda just hoping they love me for who I am and not some forced version of myself that makes me feel like a complete ass.

"i just don't think this relationship is going to work. i need more small talk."

"...the fuck? ok, bye"

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 weeks ago

Honestly yes that's kind of what I do.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 weeks ago

Well do you?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

As someone who's not been in an real relationship this is my fear as well, even if I find someone how will I keep them engaged enough for a lifetime. I rarely even text the women I get digits from, I'm just very comfortable being alone and now it's getting problematic

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

But if you feel comfortable, why is it problematic?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

There's more to life than just being comfortable, most things that are worthwhile require getting out of your comfort zone, and I think I've realized as I've grown older is that a relationship is worthwhile

If I'm being manipulated from on-high by some otherworldy powerful, possibly eldritch abomination, then that's actually way more metal than just being some dude.

edit: I was supposed to criticise the relationship advice, got it... Yeah, I'm divorced.

  • Nope.
  • Why ?
  • Because I said so. Go to your room and do your homework.

We gossip about our coworkers/classmates /people we know in common or talk about shared hobbies and upcoming plans together.
