Similiar Interests as Your Dates!

Get Involved

It seems that the hardest part of finding the right person is finding someone who has the same interests as you. Sure, it can be fun being with someone different than yourself, but if neither of you are willing to try new things...it is only a matter of time until the relationship comes to a slow stop. What if you are passionate about rock climbing and your boyfriend or girlfriend wants to have a movie night every night? Not too much fun!

On the other hand, what if you met someone who held the same interests that you hold? How great would it be to be able to hang out together doing things you both love? Perhaps you like bike riding or participating in sports. Maybe you are a home-body and would love to bum around every weekend. It's important to know what you like. Many times people in a relationship lose their identity and forget to get involved with the things they once loved. Knowing what you enjoy can be the first step towards meeting someone else who enjoys the same things!

It's true.. even if you don't find a guy/girl to do out with, you
can still end up with a bunch of new friends.

And I know what the other people mean about creepy guys. I tend to
attract a good few of those.. young and really old lol. That's why
I like going out to the bars and stuff with at least one guy, if
it doesn't keep them away in the first place, I can always say I'm
with another guy.
Hi um ok this is gonna be really long but if I dont get it out Iam
gonna go nuts so here goes. Dusty and I have been dating 3years.
When just the other day he said I cant have fun with you anymore.
Well I dident say anything at first. I just let him talk we have
nothing in common you dont like what I want to do. Ok well Dusty
loves hunting and looking for deer sheds. well dont get me wrong I
dont mind but not all the time. It gets old. Then we went out to
his feild and he started to shoot some cans. He handed me the gun
Iam not to big on guns I use to be but then my mom told me she
dident want me to shoot at least till I turned 18. Well that was
15days ago. So I just kindia told him I still dident want to
shoot. He seemed fine with it then we went back to his place and
he said things have got to change I cant have fun with you. I told
him to marry a guy. So whos fault was it that we broke up? Please
anwser this post.
I'm a fan of shidduchim. Mostly because I go to an all-girls
school.
broksbaby, unfortunately I seem to attract creepy guys even when
I'm in a relationship. I think the gravitate towards me. Maybe
I'm too nice...I always end up with weirdos trying to make
conversation..
this article actually does have some SUPER ideas for, if not stuff
to do with your sweetie, at least a way to maybe meet one or at
the VERY least have a good time!

good article!!! :D
DogBait - that is absolutely the healthiest thing you can actually
do in a relationship too...You are not supposed to spend 24/7 with
each other or you will go crazy!!

That being said, I am soo glad I'm married and don't deal with the
datin scene anymore, especially since the psycho creepy guys seem
to be getting crazier and creepier every year!!!
A man once told me that he thought that the key to his successful
marriage was that he and his wife had their own time to pursue
their own interests. Sure, I bet they did do things in common,
but he believed that by doing things apart you have more to talk
about when you meet up again at the end of the day.

I love doing things as a couple, but I also love my time spent
alone. I couldn't stand being with my boyfriend 24/7. We have
totally different hobbies, but both respect each other's interests
and occasionally get involved.
heh my boyfriend and i have very different interests...but i
wouldnt trade him for no one else
Sadly my Spring Break is already over, but I'm hoping to join a
club or start a hobby that I might like during the summer.
Definitely a good means of meeting other people, too.
