Episode 254: Dating for shared interests

Many people often approach dating through the lens of shared
interests. While there is a grain of wisdom to this perspective,
it ultimately doesn't make a lot of sense to do this. And there
are two main reasons for this. First: shared interests are
factual disclosures, and factual disclosures do not increase
attraction or chemistry (which is what people are generally
looking for in a relationship). And second: your interests (and
your partner's interests) will change in time. If the basis of
your relationship is your shared interests, how will it continue
when those interests inevitably shift?
