I did, but I also read your first post in this thread which seems to clarify your position on the whole matter.
I know plenty of people who don't believe in God - myself included although soemtimes I say I'm agnostic because I really don't know. Its not something I ever think about either because I hate philosophising about things I will never know the answer to. I couldn't date a religious person ie. someone who believes in God, maybe attends worship or says prayers etc.
I guess thats to do with beliefs though, not what someones hobby is!
My thoughts exactly.
I think most men would say the same thing about women & shopping/fashion.
Wouldn't you find it boring being with someone who has exactly the same interests and views/beliefs as you? I know I certainly would. However, I couldn't go out with someone whose beliefs were totally different. (as in, we were both different religious beliefs)
In one way I think some of you are shallow - what's wrong with going out with someone who likes football? My mum is married to my dad who watches football and goes to matches, but his whole life (well,some of the weekend does) doesn't revolve around football.
what is your point?
That there's a difference between not going out with someone because they have different values, and not going out with someone because they happen to have an interest that you don't share with them. Jesus Christ, I thought it was pretty clear the first few times.
It isn't shallow to not go out with people you don't find attractive, it's just sensible.
Blasphemy! er, and yes I agree, there is a difference. I still think both are valid reasons.
Calm down dear :razz:
I'm not talking about whether someone's attractive or not. I'm talking about how there are certain people who won't go out with someone just because they like football.
Well she really really hates football so I guess someone going to matches, wearing the shirt or playing it makes them less attractive!
:yes:
tbh she probably just has a stereotypical view of footballers - thinking that they're all yobs or pie eaters or beer guzzlers and walk around in footy shirts all the time. i doubt she even knows anyone who supports footy or plays it.
Badminton and that one where you push pucks with a broom on old people cruises all the way
rugby and boxing !!!!!
footballers are pansies come on, they claim anything is a foul.
Half the stuff they go off "injured" for is part and parcel of a rugby match.
I mean rugby players have parts of them butterfly stitched and covered and go back out to play for fucks sake!!
pah!
rugby players are less girly, granted. but all they seem to do is run around charging into eachother like rhinos!
No, you quoted too quick, I changed it :grump:
Right, like real men.
Indeed
Because it normally is?
I could cope with them watching the odd game, or having a kick around with mates, but some guys are SOOOO into it. bloody ridiculous.
None of my serious relationships have been with guys who are into footie - theyre just not my type. I even think its a bit weird that my dad and my brother like watching it on the telly.
Just cant see the attraction, therefore would probably not date someone who was into it.
Then one weekend shortly into your relationship he says he's off to the pub to watch the game with his mates, something he does quite regularly.
Would you ditch him?
That said, I've never had a relationship to give me something else to do but I can imagine it would be an issue. My mate is lucky to have found like the best girl in the world, sweet, beautiful, great to talk to and she comes to football with him all the time and has grown to really enjoy it.
I believe you are thinking of shuffleboard.
That's the point though. Football can't wait. Your cock isn't going anywhere soon, but the football kicks off when it kicks off. You can't get all the players out again to recreate it for you later. Priorities, jeez.
