Not yet, but you are working on it.

I could never date someone who didn't like Nina Hagen. You don't like my favorite band? Fine. You don't like Nina? MADNESS.

It's not a deal breaker but it sure is a nice plus when you can play whatever you want without bothering them with the music. Only been with one girl that has great taste though.

Do you and Linn have any crossover, Chula?

70s classic rock? A ton. Gotta remember though that back when we were young there wasn't nearly as many music choices as there are today. I'd wager that 95% of our high school all loved the same music.

This past Saturday while she was working out she had a station on that played nothing but The Beatles, Stones, and Zeppelin. After the mid 80s we kind of went our separate ways - we're the same age BTW.

Oh my god. What if a chick I'm dating likes spiders? And keeps spiders?! If I'm over at her place, and she has some big ****ing aquarium in her room with a giant tarantula, what the **** am I supposed to do? I ain't gonna be able to get it up. Time to ****ing bail, dudes.

Having the same taste is a nice bonus, but I'd have lived an incredibly lonely life and missed out on so much if I had made this a necessary requirement.

It's honestly always kinda been a requirement because my taste in music is a soundtrack to my life. I'm into my music, I require a dude who is also into his music and will not only not mind but in fact enjoy when I'm controlling the ambient sounds. What I think suits the mood, he's gotta think suits the mood, and he does. Our taste isn't identical, but we can talk music together for hours and know references and ****.

And obviously it's not all that matters, but yeah its kinda important if you're THAT into something. Wouldn't date a dude who had zero appreciation for my art preferences, either.
