dont get me wrong, i like when people have different taste in things than me, but
avril levine or ashley simpson counts as 3 automatic strikes.
im not one for music snobbery but COME ON.


& at the same time, someone can 3 strike me because i have en vogue or dee lite in my cd rack, so it goes both ways. id be pretty annoyed if someone 3striked me based on my cd collection.

&carriebradshaw;

yeah i probablty wouldn't be attracted to them in the first place


i doubt i could have sex with someone who still listens to korn. for example. i mean i don't knowif i'd be physically capable

You can always have an IMPACT on him and influence his taste (in anything) if you think he has potential to evolve. If he has no potential for improvement, you don't want such a guy to begin with. Be his mentor, oliver. Be his savior. Show him the light so that he can never go back to Ashley and Avril. (and by the way I will pretend I did not hear about the en vouge and dee lite)

no, these are reasons to actually go out with you in the first place. seriously, if i could find a boy who liked deee lite, i might actually go back on my promise to be a spinster.

well i mean, what if you were attracted to them and then saw theyre music collection and it sucked?
you cant always distinguish, for the most part, a avril listener for a non avril listener, although sometimes its pretty obvious.
like skull n cross bones wrist bands or something, thats something to steer clear from.

if he looked dropdead gorgeous, you so would at least fuck him. Noone is saying you should run to the sunset with him and elope.

how old is he? if he is young, his taste will most likely change in 5 years. If he is in his late 20's, well...then you should ask yourself "does he have good taste in other stuff?". If he does, COMPROMISE then, mister, and forget about his music collection. I mean what makes long-term, happy couples solid is not that they shake their booties to the same music.

well you know. people move in circles and dress in certain ways. some bad music is a lifestyle? i only really socialise with people who have similar tastes in music?

like i rly hate U2 but i would fuck someone who liked them although i probably wouldn't date them (clearly we have way too diffrent values)

if a boy likes say avril or something ironically i think that's a bit sexy

see, you almost judged me, and i dont like that. and a dont think judging someone on something thats pretty insignificant is ~mature~ but i do it.

you see, it is my belief that a music collection should have a sense of humor to it. mixing the high with the lowbrow. its charming.
wouldnt want to be with someone with all highbrow either you know? because then theyre a douche. like those scensters or whatevers.

I was teasing you. But don't expect me or anyone to love everything about you. So that should go for how you evaluate others, i.e. the new guy. Ignore the music collection if he has good taste in other things.

i don't think musoc is insignificant at all. i listen to msuic all the time, if this is someone i'[m going to be spending a lot of time with then i'm going to have to compromise some and listen to stuff he likes. so it can't be shit.

As someone in her *ahem* 30's, I can safely say "I will never go out with someone who has diferent taste in music/movies" will change after you hit 30. Music becomes not as important in your life as it once was. When you get older, other things and traits in a person take more of a priority in attraction. So again my advice: Ignore the music collection.

well im not in this situation, this is all hypothetical. ive been fortunate enough to be involved with guys with at least decent taste.
but the question you raise is precisely what im trying to get at: leik, how much of ones musical taste translate to how they live theyre life and how their brains operate. how telling is it?

see, im seriously typing this from my desk and looking out the window pensively. and my hair is curly. all i need is a jew nose for the complete carrie bradshaw metamorphosis.

I get my curly hair relaxed. It is sooo much better to handle and style this way...

Well, liek I said, how about his taste in OTHER things? if his taste in other things are also shit, then this guy is beneath you , so move on. But if he is good quality in other areas, then music alone should not be the reeason to not give him a chance. You should look at more than one factor to judge how he lives his life and so on.

you know what? youre right. this is why i need to talk it out, because i was feeling conflicted.

well i wouldn't date someone just because they had a good taste in music

I was like that though when I was younger. i would erase people without giving them a chance if I thought their taste in music or movies (which is my forte) sucked. But live and learn....I know I can not find someone who is perfect in every area but I have observed people change so much throughout their lives that now I kinda regret not giving certain people in the past a proper chance.

I am glad I helped you out.
