Do guys find it weird if girls have the same interests as them?

It’s very common. Some guys like more of a girl like you as opposed to the stereotype ditzy blonde girly girl. If one guy doesn’t like you because of who you are, then don’t worry about it, like how girls are interested into different types of guys, guys are interested in different types of girls, and believe me, there are plenty of guys who like girls like you.

A couple of my friends have girlfriends who are into exactly the same things that they’re into and they seem to be really quite happy. And it makes it all the better when we all get together, a big bunch of us, because it’s not that we treat them like another one of the guys but like friends, friends because of mutual interests, similar opinions.

It’s a common thing for girls who are averse to certain activities to quickly become “the loathed girlfriend,” so to speak. I can’t remember how many times a friend of mine either couldn’t do something or left in the middle of something just because their girlfriend wasn’t into whatever was going on. I can understand a disagreement or an argument, but it sucks when a girl doesn’t enjoy many of the same things that her boyfriend does only because everyone winds up seeing less and less of him…

Anyway, I wouldn’t worry too much. It’s great if a girl wants to play some Street Fighter or spit on the sidewalk. ;)

No, I highly value and appreciate common interests with women! It can be great for getting to understand how someone thinks differently from oneself, too, because the subject is familiar and of interest, both people have knowledge of it, and so on.

I know my boyfriend doesn’t. I;m basically him in girl form and he loves it. I love video games and all that stuff. I grew up with all guy friends.

I love it. That means there are less things that I have to do that I don’t like (the typical girl stuff). I have always been attracted to the “tomboy” type, and like jamspoon said that means that we get to spend more time together.

NOT WEIRD AT ALL

Having the same interests seems to be pretty much the point (besides increasing the human population).

Most people aren’t entirely macho men or girly girls. Most of us are somewhere in between. I’m pretty tomboyish about a lot of things, but not everything. You don’t have to have all the same interests, but you better have some overlap if you ever want to see each other. It really depends on the kind of relationship you eventually want. I know you’re just talking about dating right now. I just wanted to say that there are a lot of guys who will like you just for the person you are, and there are those who won’t. It only takes the one guy to be happy with, and you’ll have plenty to choose from. I always did, and I’m a geeky woman who got just the right geek for me in the end. Be yourself and be happy.

I think a guy would be happy to have a girlfriend that would rather spend a Sunday afternoon watching football instead of spending the day shopping. One of the many things my husband loves about me! It’s all about shared interests.
@tocutetolive90 It’s nice to know that there are others out there that have/had more guy friends than girl friends. I always wondered if “that” was weird.

lol. if its weird then im there with u. lol. But i found it fun, less drama. In my college i have more girlfriends. and i kinda hate it. so much drama, they like to ignore me cause im not all girly like them. my schools mostly all girls so i dont really have guys to hang with, but thats why im glad i can always hang with my boyfriend and be myself.

@tocutetolive90 just be yourself, that’s all that matters!

Nope, that is totally awesome!

yep

Personally I find it refreshing if a woman is her self instead of some stupid stereotype. I can’t stand girly girls who want to be “protected” and want me to act like their daddy they make me sick.
