stop trying to find someone who likes what you like and hates what you hate. try to find someone who you enjoy anyway and treats you well.

Sometimes it’s better to have different tastes. My ex and I liked the opposite flavors of gummy bears. It was so convenient. lol

Yeah, but the end wasn’t gummy bear related. lol

Sometimes the universe has other plans.

I say this as someone who never stopped looking until I found a gaming buddy in a partner. When every night is a date, lan party, and sleepover all at once... I certainly can't tell you what's important to you, just never settle.

To a point yes but having nothing in common is tiring really.

You can't really decide what others want in life.

100%

It's also nice to have shared interests. But I have friends to chat with about the latest Final Fantasy game.

I feel like gaming is something you both want to have in common if either of you really enjoy it. Otherwise it seems like it usually turns into a problem.
