What's the dumbest thing that you've ever pretended to like for your significant other?

Mine: I pretended to like Sarah Mclachlan. I didn't think it was that bad at first... but then I had to listen to it over and over. I can't even stand to watch that ASPCA commercial with the shelter dogs.

    even actual Sarah McLachlan fans can't stand those commercials

    Pop-punk crap. He used to be very into bands like The Used, 30 seconds to Mars, my chemical romance... even went to a big show with him.... I wanted to stick hot pokers into my ears whilst throwing myself into Audubon traffic. And I LOVE rock.. but this, no.

    I think if you have to pretend to like anything for them then there's a deep rooted problem in your relationship.

    I think I would have a bigger problem if I said " listen, your mother is a b***"..just sayin

    Nickelback.

  • When we were first dating I sucked it up and listened to his techno music *he's a DJ* ... now I actually like it :happy:

    Dreadlocks and Mohawks. Gag.

    Dark/Death/Black Metal, i.e. Between The Buried And Me and Job For A Cowboy.

    Both of these were from my ex.

    I do have to thank him for introducing me to A Perfect Circle though...led to a ton of great music!

    With my ex, I pretended to like Nascar. He would watch the race every Sunday, and I pretended to be interested and have a favorite racecar driver and paid attention to the stats and everything. I HATE Nascar! I haven't watched a race since, and I'm so glad to have it out of my life!!!!

    Football!!! But that was only when we first started dating. He knows I wont even sit in the same room as him if theres a game on tv. We're both okay with that ;))
  • I've never pretended to like anything for his benefit. What purpose is there in that? I'm me and I'm not gonna change to impress someone.

    Televised 'sports'

    His family has always watched winter sports: curling, figure skating, skiiing...They still bore me to death after 10 years, but I still watch 'em.
