Must interest & love language match in R/S?
> 22M here turning 23 soon. Just some late night thoughts I was considering when finding a potential partner.
> Firstly, is it often that you find someone with the same interest / hobbies as you?
> Just feels that what I do is quite niche (exploring ard SG) and the only other potential interest I have is fitness (I'm 60kg 187cm), so it would be hard to use my hobbies as a common topic :/
> And whenever I date people, I end up feeling like I'm carrying the convo, and the other person just replies with a few letters, I can't tell if I'm boring or is it cause we need a common interest lol
> The second part is love language, does it play a huge role when you find a relationship?
> Mine is personally quality time and touch, which I'm unsure if its a rare combo to have.
> Have met people who can't even commit a day out on a weekly basis, but for me, I gain energy with people and mixing with them so its hard when its purely just texting all week long when I just want to spend time with my partner :/
> Next is physical touch such as PDA, which I'm quite chill about. But I just find it romantic to be able to cuddle and hold hands with your partner and the warmth you get when you get to hug them, but I'm not sure if I'm alone in this
> Some even thinks that physical touch just means I'm looking for FWB (which I find icky), but I just want a genuine long-lasting relationship that can remain committed, which I also feel like its rare nowadays.
> Honestly feels like the dating scene here is quute rough and its hard to find a decent partner that can hold a conversation, but what do you think?
