Do your hobbies and personal interests 'repel' potential dates?
Or should they? Shouldn't someone accept another person for who and what they are, which includes their hobbies and personal interests?
Would you change yours, drop one or some, or take up different ones, in order to make yourself more 'attractive'?
It seems pretty hollow/shallow that a person's hobbies and personal interests would become a stand-alone point of contention unless said hobbies and personal interests were somehow dangerous, overly risky, etc.
You can't go into a relationship with a person and either shut out or ignore something about them like it doesn't exist. Likewise you can't go into a relationship with someone and then tell/demand/insist that a person must change something about themselves as a condition of the relationship continuing. Or can you?
