Threads like this are ret*d. All women are different and have different interests/hobbies. If you're an otherwise decent guy they would like, they're not gonna lose interest just because you like playing video games or you're interested in racing. Likewise, if you're a prick they're not gonna suddenly start liking you because of a shared hobby you have. Just be yourself and don't be desperate or over-analyse the whole women/dating subject.

Very true.

Going on a tangent, because you just made me think of it, last Sunday I went to a football game for the first time in years and years. As I wandered through all the tailgaters and other regulars, I wondered what it would have been like if I had fallen in love with a guy who was super interested in football, and made that his regular Sunday activity, instead of my shy guy who prefers museums. You know, I would have adapted. I could do the tailgate thing every week all fall if it made my guy happy. Just because it isn't something I would ever pick, doesn't mean I can't recognize that it can be fun.

People know what interests they can shift and deal with, and what interests they really want no part of. Even then, it isn't always a deal breaker: my husband loves to wilderness camp, but I most certainly am not going along. As long as he can find other people to share that with, we're good.

What no one wants is to be lied to. You're going to marry a real person, not a resume.

Exactly! Singing and other art forms, shows a deeper part of someone's soul. It can be powerful or vulnerable. If there was one similarity among those I've dated, it's that they were all musicians whether they sang or played an instrument. ^.^

One thing I HATE is when a guy will ask to spend quality time with you and he starts playing video games. My ex did that to after I would take the train 1 hour to come see him and I finally told him how rude it was for me to come that far to see him and sitting there bored and how did he not get the hint when it go to the point where I was carrying around a book with me. I was having a new years get together and first question out of his mouth is what video game system should I bring and even his guy friends were like you kidding.I then told him how I felt and if he ever did that again to me the video game system would take a nice ride out the window. His problem is I was his third girlfriend and he didn't know how to be a in relationship.

I thought this would be more constructive than the previous posters post.

1. Playing video games.
2. Watching movies.
3. Racing cars*
4. "Pimping" cars*
5. ....I guess there's really only 4.

*Hobby might be appealing to women of certain American sub-cultures.

I think you're going about this all wrong. What would be unimpressive to me is if a man had NO interests. The fact that a man's interests are different from mine is something to be investigated. Maybe I can learn something new. Maybe I can understand something better.

You're being too negative about this, I think.
