I responded to a comment asking if we dated "lit-savvy" girls because his girlfriend doesn't read at all. I said that his relationship probably wouldn't work out in the long-run if neither party shared a major interest.

In that particular case, it happened to be literature.

I was then told I was a vig bro, that my opinion was not based in reality, and you brought up "lit canon."

Literature was the specific example. I've otherwise been using the plural or hedging with phrases like "if neither party shared a major interest" which implies multiple interests.

But look if you're comfortable with being in a long-term relationship with someone who doesn't care about the things you love then power to you I hope the sex is good.

It's not misogyny at all, seeing as I'm a girl. It's not misandry either.

I just don't think there's an easily findable and datable person out there who is so similar to me. Two or three shared interests is viable - more than that, I think you're chasing a dream.

Like a lot of Aristotle's work, it's structurally schizophrenic as a result of the shoddy textual history. Reading it is a headache and far from pleasant.

It's a good book, don't get me wrong, but there are certainly better Aristotle ones (Ethics, De Anima, and Metaphysics, all more original and influential) and much better books on political philosophy.

Plenty of people share them in different combinations, but I haven't found anyone who shares more than three or four.

Literature, tea, fountain pens, mycology, board games, homebrewing, firearms, opera and fencing.

I'm content with my set-up - someone who will drink some teas, who will try some brews, who likes to shoot. He doesn't care about my books, pens or opera. Expecting him to, or anyone, to be that similar doesn't seem feasible.

Millions of people who like literature also like opera, tea, and fountain pens. Board games and beer aren't a huge stretch either.

Firearms will probably limit you to Americans, although fencing is a sport practiced by millions of people.

I saw a movie about mushrooms called Now, Voyager at the Tribeca Film Fest a couple of years ago. I'm sure the people there liked a lot of the other things you like too. But I'm sure if you found someone who was interested in a majority of the other things you like they wouldn't be opposed to letting you introduce them to something, the same way you'd be inclined to humor their interests.

Board games and beer are definitely two that go together, as do literature and pens. Tea is iffy, as most people aren't truly into tea as anything more than something they get at Starbucks or know only as black. I acknowledge I do a lot of gatekeeping, but I don't see it as much of a similar interest if someone only drinks infused pieces of fruit vs. single terroir oolong.

I think you're confusing what I said. Yes, there are probably people in the world who share three or four of those interests with me. There might be someone out there wholly into all of those, and I don't discount that. There are not millions of them though.

And yes, you can introduce someone to your other interests, and you can both humor each other's. That doesn't mean the other person is going to develop a passion about that interest and publish in the field. I have someone who will try things I make, occasionally humor me on board games, attend related gatherings on the other things. That's what comes of introducing things - they're not going to be gung-ho or as knowledgeable. That's mutual acceptance of interests within a great and accommodating relationship, not "shared interests."

I've been lurking on this thread for a while now and I have to say I share your skepticism about finding a partner with so many shared interests. That being said, I think many people here designate too much importance on shared interests. More than two or three shared interests would be ideal, but they are ostensibly superfluous. Shared values and equal costs/benefits in the relationship are arguably more vital to sustainability. Yes, shared passions are important, but without shared convictions and fair treatment outside of these hobbies or interests, most relationships won't last and at the very least won't see contentment.

How am I a terrible human? I love my husband and provide for him completely. We adore each other and plan on having children of our own after some (obviously needed) growing. I have given a wonderful family an opportunity to parent a healthy child that would have been raised by a single mother otherwise. I have given a child, a baby that was destined for a bright future and would have been a shame to murder for my own reputation, a pampered childhood with a wealthy, educated family, and the promise of private school and ultimate success.

I'm a pretty high-functioning human, actually. Would it have been better to slaughter the kid and lie to my husband about ever having gotten pregnant? Would it have been better to not inform him I was carrying another man's child? Maybe I should have left my husband and become a single mother? Give me a better option, anon.

Abortion is always an option if you're not constrained by bleeding heart sentimentality. Your husband will never love your kid once he starts to suspect it isn't his. So much for that bright future.

The better option is to not have gotten pregnant by a bagel-dick that wasn't your husband. Seriously, what a shitty shitty thing to do. I'm infuriated for your husband.

We were separated due to my hedonism and his psychosis, planning on divorcing, and were both seeing other people; he's not an innocent man by any means. I like how you identify with him, though. Do you feel as if women persecute and betray you intentionally?

I did mention I'm placing the child for adoption, and that my husband was made completely and totally aware the baby was not his before we got back together. Reading comp, anon, try harder.

Abortion is only a real option for poor minorities and women who will be giving birth to mongoloid babies destined to be leeches to society. My genes are impeccable and this baby is perfectly healthy, and will bring a lot of joy to the family I have chosen to raise it.

>>5043022
What's really fucked up is that before that separation, I had a totally bland, scot-free life without even trying. First woman in my family to enlist and the first woman, and one of the only people in my family, to complete a degree, I married the man who took my virginity and was stupidly, effortlessly loyal for years, even forgave my husband for cheating on me for the sake of our relationship. Really, nobody I work with knows about my situation. They just assume the baby is my husband's and we go around keeping up the act together. He thinks it's funny. It's almost like everyone else are really being cuckolded, not him.

yep. well, maybe not full but pretty damn close to the tipping point. i have heard many stories similar to anon's situation. a fellow friend's little sister is currently in this kind of situation. a slew of insanity, selfishness, vulnerability, psychosis, stubbornness, and vanity from both parties.

I was trolling with that post. It's a joke. Nobody likes Cassandra Clare, she just writes fan fic. Also, nobody goes to a Community College for a degree in physics. I am from Knoxville though. What do you take at UT?

I read it because it contains a fictional portrait of James Jesus Angleton, the longtime head of counter intelligence at the CIA (a very interesting guy), written by Victor Marchetti, once a CIA deputy director or something. The title comes from Thus Spoke Zarathustra. It's premise is that the director of the CIA was working for the Soviets, something Marchetti believed.
Another good book is Orchids for Mother. Same premise, different CIA Director.

I would fuck your wife while you're out at the gym. Then I would write a short story about it that gets me praised out the ass and that's how you'd find out about it. I wouldn't even change the names.
