I noticed the other day that girls usually adapt to their bfs hobbies like if they enjoy idk surfing the girls will start learning facts about it and buying cute things related to it for them and being so proud of their bf like they’re a star even if they aren’t that great at surfing just out of pure love and joy ….. But men never fucking adapt to their gf’s interests like they can’t possibly care less about makeup for example or they’ll just complain about them taking too long to get ready instead of sharing the passion for it and watching them create something beautiful and being interested in why is it that it makes her feel better to do her makeup. Men are so used to not trying at all fuck that tbh!!!!

yall are just dating the wrong fucking people lmao

Seriously, you ARE dating the wrong people. I work in a makeup store and the sheer amount of guys that are fully engaged in what their girlfriends/wives are doing with makeup surprised me. Yes there’s a lot of guys who scoff and roll their eyes about being in the PRESENCE of makeup, but there’s sooooo many that are consistently engaged, looking at colours wanting to help (even when they’re visibly confused and you can see they want to help but don’t know how). My boyfriend even knows more than I thought just from listening to me talk.

Find better quality guys that take interest in your interests and stop settling for assholes.

And there’s also nothing wrong with you getting to know your partner’s interests. There’s nothing wrong with you being in awe of their of their talent, even if they don’t’ have any. It’s totally okay and valid and there’s nothing wrong with this.

I say this to my partner every time he’s insecure after a rant about his hobbies, or worried I’m bored when we’re spending time doing something he prefers: 

“I may not understand why you like the things you do, I may never like them as much as you do. But I will ALWAYS take an interest.”

And THAT is what’s important. As long as you take an interest in the thing the people you love like, and as long as they do the same then it’s perfectly fine if you find a new hopbby, one you enjoy together. But it has to be a unified effort, if the guys or girls you like don’t take any effort to learn about the things you love, it really isn’t a healthy thing.

They won’t necessarily like it, or want to join you in this hobby, but it makes sense, don’t you think, to at least understand some of it.
