I’m 3 months into my rs with my girlfriend and I realized there are some differences in the way we communicate and do things. I am seriously thinking should I cut loss and end things since we are still early in the rs?
My girlfriend is very well read and knowledgeable. For communication, she is the kind who likes in-depth talks and can discuss in detail for a wide variety of topics, even ‘serious’ ones like science, philosophy, current affairs, politics etc. When we text, her messages are usually long and detailed. However, I am the polar opposite. As a guy, I talk in a straight and direct manner. Whether in text or verbally, i reply in short phrases and direct to the point. I don’t like reading since young and unsurprisingly much less well read and thus have little to contribute to the convo if my gf talks about some topics in detail. Sometimes, I pretend to be smiling and interested in the convo but in reality, it just bore me to tears and can’t wait for the convo to end. There are a few times when my girlfriend said half jokingly that she hoped that I can be better with words and be more interesting and I don’t know for sure if she meant it.
She is a homebody and enjoys reading and baking. I am more of an outdoorsy person who likes sports and exploring new places. Up till now, we have no shared activities/ hobbies and we each pursued our hobbies on our own. Our dates are just mostly meeting up, movies, eating tgt and some chit chatting.
I know these are not v serious issues but they do add up. It is very difficult to change who I am and so does she. Tbh, the rs is getting a little boring and I dont know if it is worth to solve the issues or just break and find someone else since the rs is still young.
