Communist literature, which makes me question why am dating this dumb slut anytime we talk about it. All her opinions are dumb and she can only regurgitate what others tell her, what's ironic is that when she meets her friends she starts parroting my ideas as if they are hers, and then she debates me as if I am retarded when we talk about them.

I contemplate breaking up every single time I talk with her... but then I see her round butt and my brain makes me want to pump her full of baby milk day in, day out.

My wife will read some literature, but nothing that complex or dated. The appeal of Dante or Greek Tragedies is lost on her. She likes more modern, straight forwards stuff like 1984, Brave New World, and suprisingly 100 Years of Solitude.

I've gotten her into some sci-fi and fantasy I like. ASOIAF, Dune, Red Rising. She reads the Bible a lot and more pop theology. I think she'd actually like Pilgrims Progress if she got into it.

My big thing is myths, old epics, and things that play with archetypes like Kafka and Borges, which doesn't seem to interest her at all, but at least we can share sci-fi.

She also reads very little non-fiction whereas I read a ton of military and political history, or foreign affairs stuff, but I also work on the field for a living so that's different.

I tried getting her into hobbies, but it just don't work, her attention span is fucked beyond belief.

It really depends on you. You could be with a vapid bitch and lover her to death. Or it could be the other way around. These relationships usually end in divorce btw. If you are in a relationship and you cannot see yourself getting married and living together and having babies then I you'd have to be a real weak person to force yourself to stay in the relationship.
You kind of have to learn these things yourself. Thankfully I'm not sex driven so it's much easier to decide on whether the relationship is what I want.

On what grounds do you disagree with me on my first point? There's a level of tolerance afforded to others based on the importance of those differing aspects. For example, having one partner having a vegan diet for health concerns may be inconvenient, but it's ultimately surmountable. What about a situation in which only one person doesn't desire children? That's a fundamental difference in the desires of the participating parties and will in all likelihood result in the couple parting ways.

I’ve known her since we were teenagers so we’ve developed somewhat similar taste and we’ve contributed to each other’s. We both read from the same pool of literary fiction, philosophy, and history, though of these three she reads history less by far. As for fiction, she certainly still has her preferences, and she leans heavily towards contemporary literature. Ishiguro, Roth, Marquez, Coetzee, Tartt, Murakami (unironically), Lessig, Mantel, etc. Though I know she’s partial to a bunch of 19th century stuff too, chief among which is Dickens, followed by like Eliot, Hugo, Hardy, etc.

Even if one doesn't act on her ideas, the espousing of them acts as a sort of social contagion. To avoid alienating people with a political analogy, imagine someone constantly saying that ocelots are great pets, despite never owning one himself. Another person may become convinced of this and purchase one. Now, his furniture is ruined, and his apartment smells like piss. In such a scenario, the person advocating for ocelots did nothing but talk of it, but it still had negative consequences.
