Things in common (or not!)

Just wondering how many think it's important to a relationship to have lots of things in common.

Me and my OH don't have too much in common in terms of hobbies/ interests but I really enjoy learning about his passions from him and he about mine.

I notice just small things all the time, I like a drink whereas he would happily be tee total etc... I doubt very much we would even have mingled at all if we hadn't crossed paths just by chance.

We match on a personality level, both quite quiet and laid back but I was just curious as to how many of you have DHs/DWs/DPs who you don't really share much in common with but you just work!

I absolutely adore my OH so this post is purely out of my own curiosity as I always thought it was important until I met him, now it just seems not!

I tend to think a couple should have one shared interest but a couple that they don't share. You never run out of things to talk about that way, while also not being in each other's pockets all the time but ensure there is something you really connect with
