I'm not sure if this is embarrassing, but it's downright quirky and not something that most people do.
Everyone has their own peculiarities, especially as far as sexual preferences are concerned. I'm not shallow, but I'm no different and I'm entitled to assess my lovers-to-be in any way I choose.
... But for the love of the gods, I will never date someone who doesn't like Bauhaus. Ever. I can be friends with them (sort of... ), but I could never, ever date them. For starters, Bauhaus is what I listen to whilst banging most of the time. Sorry, but if I turn on Bauhaus and the person winces or asks me to turn it down, that's all I need to hear to know that we'll never be happy together.
My partner now? He doesn't go out of his way to listen to them often, but does so often enough. He likes them and knows about my whole romantic/sexual complex with them. Like I said, that's my main bedroom soundtrack and that music's been with me for far longer than any other partner I've bedded.
Embarrassing reason to reject people #2: I've had to reject two people this year because they smelled terrible. For some reason, I don't mind BO if the person is a crust punk or a hippie. (Probably a familial thing or something.) But if you get out of the car and you leave behind a scent so strong that I have to drench the entire thing in perfume and open all the windows to make it leave, then thanks for purchasing me that one-way ticket to Nopesville. It's weird; it's like there's a difference between deliberate dirtiness and being gross by accident. So far, I've only told one of them, especially since he's one of my best friends and I never want him doing that again. The other person? Well, she not only wreaked up the car in the same way, but failed the Bauhaus test with flying colors.
I don't care how much else we have in common, either. I would welcome the challenge, should anyone desire to put forth that kind of deliberate effort, but I just can't see that working. Hm.
