I don't do pop culture nor do I follow any celebrities. Am I doomed dating wise?

Plus I dress up like average Joe 🤦‍♂️

Cool. You’re so masc.

Joking aside, a lot of people aren’t into celebrity gossip and stuff.

That’s fine, but do you have other interests or hobbies that make you “interesting”?

Bruh, this is exactly me! I enjoy some pop songs here and there but for the most part have no idea of the artists. I’m not from the US so I do enjoy music from my country. I tend to not have a great time in bars as most people sing/dance along but I still enjoy being there as long as other people are not obnoxious about my lack of knowledge. I tried a little bit to get into it so as to gel well with others but couldn’t do it lol.
Now I just coast along from one date to another hoping someday I’ll find someone

Ohhh then don't go to trivia night on Tuesday at a bar since the host will give you stink eyes for not knowing Beyonce lol

I don’t know much of anything about pop culture on my own accord either, but I have a bunch of friends who do (and have dated some guys who were very into pop culture).

Most folks have personalities that are deeper than their music taste. If you don’t vibe on music you can surely find something else to talk about. Food/travel is an easy one to start with if you’re struggling.

Of course there are some folks whose entire identities center around pop culture and celebrities and in those cases it’s 🤷🏻‍♂️

No. I don’t even really who Beyoncé is, and am not a fan (I’m 44), but people I know were (and are) appalled. But I don’t care. Now, when I mention Joyce DiDonato, I get “huh”? It is what you’re into. I’m into opera, classical music, and classic rock.Not hip-hop. Though some of that new auto-tuned stuff is catchy. Point is, you are certainly not doomed. And Cher really started auto tune in 1998 with “believe” as an art form even though she certainly didn’t need it to improve her voice.

No, you’re probably fine. There’s something nice about dating someone who isn’t so deep into gay culture that you can’t ever step away from it (I.e, dating a circuit queen) but there’s also a fine line between not in the scene and boring

I don’t do pets. Wish me luck finding someone.

What would you do if you didn’t need money? I have a fair amount coming one day and don’t actually need to work to live a good life (middle / upper-middle class). I work because of this vague notion of “ambition” and because everyone I grew up around is highly competitive and hard driving. I just feel unhappy so often and am wondering what this is all leading to. Scared I’m wasting my life being unhappy / in turmoil cause it’s what my culture wants me to do.
