coming from someone that loves music as much as I do...
dating someone who is also in the scene and loves the music just as much as I is truely wickked...not a better way to spend time partying with close friends and that special person in your life. (and the time spent chilin after a party just as GREAT)
I could never date a guy who is totally against the scene...or who would have a problem with me partying....noooooo thanks!
vivid.....EVERYONE GIVES A ABOUT MUSIC ;) |

But i dont automatically categorize someone who listens to trance or rap in the typical generalization sense we always hear about. Yes those do apply for a lot of people but not everyone. |
exactly...just because someone is "in the scene" doesn't make them an every-weekend partier or directionless crackhead.
let's not perpetuate mainstream stereotypes ;) |

| I could careless what they listen to cause i listen to everything. So what if you can't listen to edm all the time, listening to it all the time gets monotonous to me after awhile anyway....differences are good in relationships. |

| Who cares what the music is for him/her? I have already gave up about what if someone is up to Trance or other parts of EDM. Cuz, There are plenty of girls who listen only pop, hip-hop, and rock here. |

Lisa: Do you think you're being a bit unfair? I mean you are saying that a potential guy must like trance music but at the same time you will not budge for him if he was into Rap or RNB music.

No. Her point was just that she wouldn't want go out to a hip hop event.
It would be entirely fair of him to expect her to go out w/ him to HIS events, if she expected him to go out to her events.
But I'm sure Lisa wouldn't want to "DRAG" someone who disliked trance to a trance event. And she doesn't wish to be dragged to a hip hop event either.
Therefore, to avoid complications, it would be ideal if he enjoyed trance. Then he'd come out w/ her to trance events, and she would not be obliged to attend hip hop events either.
Obviously if you fall in love w/ a person, you make work. Not enjoying trance music is NOT a deal breaker in a relationship, although it could something that keeps things from starting the first place, before you fall in love w/ the person. Yea you may miss out getting to know that particular person, but there are all kinds of great potential mates out there, and you haven't lost anything if it never happened in the first place.
I just think her point was, before getting all involved and attached, why not see if they had compatible, similar tastes in music to avoid possible future such issues (since obviously music is such an integral part of Lisa's life enjoyment and past-time experiences).

Not bull. But it does limit a person's choice.
To some people, types of music is just about same in terms of whether you date a smoker or not. |
I agree. So long as you're okay w/ limiting your choices, what's the problem. You'll meet many ppl. Any one of them will make you happy. Why not have one that makes you happy and also shares in such a fundamental and important part of your life. |

exactly! its not that i'd think less of the person, but its two different social lives. i don't think he'd like me rollin in at 10 when hes off to work..and if (when ;) ) i get back into the swing of things, he definitely wouldn't be cool with me gettin all bojangly
we couldn't fuse as one, b/c i wouldn't want to share his hiphop lifestyle and he couldn't handle mine. |

sorry, but its not the same thing. the clothes i wear and the food i eat does not dictate how i spend my time! its more an issue of being in the same social circle as opposed to music. if i was an avid soccer player and watched it often, disrupting a normal schedule for games (played and watched), if i talked about it, and all my friends were into it too, i'd find it rather difficult to relate to someone who doesn't like soccer, won't come to the games and complain if he did..and wanted me to take up golf with him..sacrificing my soccer time
just easier if i date someone that likes the same stuff. homogenous relationships are proven to be much more successful |

who said anything about permission? it's more of a question of compatability. some people are so passionate about music that it makes that much of a difference.

Oh, and when I said "trance"... I was meaning more "4x4 EDM"
Thats the EDM scene I identify with and would just LOVE to be able to share w/ a significant other.
If she loved house or techno, as examples, I wouldn't care.

Well for one, I was easily converted :p Not that I associated myself to any particular music scene before, I like most things and love to dance. I can usually dance to anything, even silence. :stongue: I'll still enjoy and sing to pop, dance and the occasional mainstream hip-hop tunes while driving in the car. Not opposed to going to any club just becuase the music isn't EDM (unless it was 100% hiphop/RnB).
As long as you can still retain individuality in the relationship and compromise - that's important. I don't think I'd rule out a potential mate just because they didn't like trance. He wouldn't have to come along with me, BUT if I started doing things differently and not going to them because of what he would say or because he 'disapproved', then forget about it!! Been there, done that... I know now not to avoid the things I like because of a boyfriend. |
