My partner is very dumb. Like, it's hard to talk to them

The question is: have I been selling myself too short? I think you can find another cutie with twice her brains. Nevertheless, it's a gamble. You got lucky once, can you get lucky again?

Make an effort to try and enjoy the things she does. Women love their hobbies and opinions validated (we all do, but especially them).
I'll give you an example. I like watching pro wrestling and my girlfriend likes Doctor Who. We both agreed to give them a try together, one after another, and we ask questions and give caring about each other's show an honest shot.

Are you sure you're not just complacent? How would you feel if she decides she can find someone that loves her? That said, you make her sound like she's head over heels in love with you. Why don't you shape her to be the kind of girl you want to be?

I'm OK with someone having other hobbies. With my ex I watched several seasons of america's next top model and I kinda sorta liked it. With her it's really retarded ancient aliens theories (not the good kind,I'm talking flat-earth level stuff) and like, runescape youtuber trolls or something. Anyway thank you anon I'll try ot make the effort.

You think? Maybe deep down that's what I'm doing. It's just so sudden and.. safe. I hate being on the other side of this, because I know what it's like to be rejected for pursuing too hard. Seems so arbitrary but it really does color my perception of her.

alright so if she's into conspiracy shit and runescape trolls, she probably likes cringe humor. I unironically encourage you to read up a little on how autistic some of the people she probably makes fun of are lmao, it really opens your eyes

In the same situation OP. It would be nice to find someone with more connection but perhaps lack thereof is partly your fault also. Plus there is no refusing her womanly bits when she puts it on a plate for you, know that feeling. hot diggidy dawg

Can you really just shape someone? I've heard it over and over: You can't change people. I guess I could put the effort forward. If we do break up atleast she'd hopefully be abit better of a person.

>>18498865
I think she's the autistic one.. She watches like hours of some prick named ice poseidon. I've read up on that alittle, I know most trolling is just picking on autistic people or children. She's not very mean spirited at all, I've never seen her rip on people, here idea of trolling is just acting silly.

How long has it been? Anything change or gotten better? And yeah the dumb ones are just the hottest somehow and best at sex with no inhibitions.

poor choice of words from other anon. You don't shape them, you teach them things you find important and you do so in an appealing and nurturing way that furthers your relationship.

Someone can adjust their worldview to suit yours given sufficient time, and incentive/motivation.

but you don't really shape them. Not if you want an actual relationship.

and the reason for that is that they will be doing the same thing to you.

Look at where the stuff she likes could intersect with the stuff you like, then try to bond over that. Her taste will develop, I assure you, it will just take some time. I stress, don't try to change her into someone she's not, just develop her natural interests.
