I Am Not Into Sports

Philippines
July 2, 2017 8:53pm CST
My partner loves sports a lot and he talks to me about basketball and football and stuff like that but I don't really have that interest to listen or to feel excited of what he told me about that because, I am not into sports. I don't know why I am not that keen about that kind of games or maybe I just don't like it that much. Sometimes,he shows sadness and feel sigh whenever he want to say something about it because we are not having the same interest and I wish I am but no.I will still listen though but it is different if you are a fan or it is your hobby like he is.But I respect of what he desires for him to enjoy even if we are not match when it comes to that.What is your hobbies myLotters?Do you like sports too or something else!

Hi , it's absolutely okay to not like sports. We have our own choices and likes/dislikes and every individual should learn to respect that.

@aishanee I agree with you because you can't force the person what they like or not.

The only type of sports I like to watch is badminton. I don't usually make it a discussion topic when I'm with other people though.

I do sports during my school days but I don't it anymore. I don't talk about it, too. Since some people would not like to hear it.

@janethwayne I like the Olympics but do not usually watch it. To me it is amazing to watch these people go against one another and see how good they are and who brings home a medal or not. Just to get there to me should be proud enough.

Janeth, So, the things you are interested in does he listen and care about those? That is hard to listen and care for something you do not have any interest in. Do you watch the games with him? Doesn't he sense that you do not like those things and is there something you both like and share together?

Happy is the man who is living by his hobby-George Bernard Shaw. Sports make your man happy. Maybe you can learn why he is so passionate through listening and learning a little bit about the sports he likes. It could help make your relationship even better. Sports are his passion. Find the hobby that interests you and be passionate about that. No reason why both of you can't be happy in your hobby-DB (that quote is mine, ha, ha)

That is actually cool if you and your partner have different interests even I have the similar problem. I love to play cricket and my girlfriend plays basketball. We always discuss about our matches but never get each other's jargons. We just show that we are interested to listen. ??
