They are physically attractive according to your preferences.

Is there a 2nd date?

Obviously, I would not date someone like that. Even if she felt that way about things I don't personally do, like read comic books or play D&D, I still wouldn't date her. Judgmental people suck.

I play video games as part of my free time, so it's immediately a no. Not gonna willingly be with someone who shames my interests. I can see it if it's an addiction but it's not.

*shrug* My fiance hates games and cartoons, and I love both. We have plenty of other things that we have common ground on. She loves basketball and I find it terminally boring. But neither of those things define who we are.

Just continue with the date, you'll know if she's actually interesting enough to continue seeing.

Now there is a distinction. Does your fiance simply hate them or does she look down on those who play them? This scenario is the latter, and that is not okay.

But yeah, you don't have to share all interests or hobbies. Almost better if you have some to yourself or to share with friends. Sharing everything with your SO can be unhealthy.

it depends on what her hobbies are. if they reflect the sense that video games are for children i might change to be more like her, but that would be highly dependent on things actually going well- I like video games so she probably wouldn't like me as is. it really depends on if I see myself doing things she likes.

Fair point, I didn't read closely enough.

Tell him goodbye and don't bother to contact me again.

My boyfriends don't hafta be interested in my hobbies, but they should at least be neutral about it. I mean, I don't like vampire and zombie media, but I'll sit down and watch with them if they want to see those kinds of movies or snuggle with me, while watching tv.

This is a ploy, that's when she says "and I am very in touch with my inner child" and reveals she's Sundowner.
