Am I The Only One With A Partner Who Doesn't Reallly Like Soul?

[El Corol]

No, you are definately not the only one mate - my Mrs loves Motown, ska and reggae, and really, really well know NS, but as she puts it "I can't stand that shite that you like that no one's ever heard of!" (I was listening to a compilation at the time and the track playing was "If you ask me" Jerry Williams (I kid you not!!) - so I either go with my brother in law or sometimes on my "billy" to Soul Nights

Yeh I know the feeling, by the way......cool name and avatar.............though The Thomas Crown Affair is when he looks the coolest.......those suits!!!!!!!

I have been married 20 years, my wife loves soul music, but not with the all consuming passion I have, when our soon was born, her enthusiasm has dwindles, but she still goes to an occasional local do & now & again travels.....................Im that sad, that when we married, I made it quite clear that I was on the scene for the long haul, its a lifestyle & that if she thought that in a few years down the line, I would have me feet up on the dog lstening to AOR, then lets call it day now...................harsh, but true.........................I love her to bits & she is a soul widow in the true tradition.

Is it just me or is there anyone else out there who is totally in love with someone who doesn't share their love of soul music.........(well she does like some 70's onwards tracks but hates the 60's stuff) and how do you manage it???

do what i did, get rid of her and trade her in for a younger model that is into it all and not just the music

in other words take my advice if you want a divorce

My other half is more into heavy bloody metal, she says her ex used to be a regular at the Casino !! He even left some records in her attic too... jackpot !!!!! She comes along to some venues but her kids think I'm a freak and takes the piss about the dancing moves.. Remember when you saw a Teddy boy in the 70s? and the embarrassing local paper stories with piccies of aged Rock and roll saddos doing charity jives..... Now it's our turn apparently. Anyhow, if you love each other you try to show some interest in what you each enjoy, growing together, sharing together and enjoying music together.... if all else fails dump the miserable cow and get blitzed out of yer nutt and enjoy....

Has your other half considered that we all might think she is a "Heavy Metal Freak" - horses for courses and all that!

Oh well guess I'll just have to put up with it?
