Is there an odd commonality to your romantic partners you only learn of later in?

Asked by Neizvestnaya (22667points) October 3rd, 2010

For example: I don’t watch tv sports, I don’t go to sports games, my partner doesn’t either but I didn’t realize this until well after we were a couple. When I think back then none of my partners have been sports people.

Thinking back, I think the only things they have had in common were also things that I had in common with them (like same taste in movies and music). I don’t really think it’s odd though.

They all liked to flail about like a wounded buffalo on the dance floor.
I’m crazy about that

I just handed out a bunch of GA’s because there really are some GA’s up there^

All I can say is I made some very strange choices in my past!

My current partner never tried coffee until he was 18. The guy I was with for a few months before him never tried it until he was 16.

I forced both to try coffee for the first time. Apparently I’m a coffee zealot.

I’ve dated all different kinds of people, but they all liked football and family guy. Is it because those two things are comforting and familiar to guys? I just don’t understand the appeal. Other than that, they were all interesting people.

All the women I’ve had sex with have had short hair, tattoos and big boobs.

Nope. Everyone I’ve dated has been so vastly different from each other, I can’t think of anything they all had in common. I figure I’ve always been trying to find the perfect guy, so if one didn’t work out I wasn’t likely to choose another like him. I think I finally found him this time. :)

Freud certainly sad it best. I married my mother and my wife married her father.
All the women I have ever dated seriously where Intellegent and strong willed.
