I see what you're saying, which is why I think this entire debate rests on an unknown factor, which is how important TNG is to OP.

If this show really means a lot to her (regardless of whether her reasons for caring about it make sense to others), then she should be able to express that to her BF, and her BF should be willing to watch it with her now and again. Because it matters to her, and she wants to share it with him.

OTOH, if OP doesn't really care about TNG that much, she just thinks it's a pretty good show and is annoyed because her BF won't enrich her rewatch experience by watching it with her, then I agree with you that he should be able to take a pass without it being a big deal.

But considering that OP is thinking about breaking up with her BF because he wont watch it with her, it seems only reasonable to assume the show means a lot to her.

I don't think you should feel obligated to try everything your SO likes in the same way they shouldn't need to try everything you like?

To boil it down: this isn't about OP's BF being unwilling to try everything she likes. It's about OP's BF being unwilling to share one of her all time favorite things with her. If TNG is not one of OP's favorite things, then I agree with your point. But given what OP says in her secret, it seems likely TNG is one of her favorite things.

I have to wonder... would you be this much up in arms about it if the genders were reversed?

[(Anonymous)]

Apparently you missed the part where I said to Wako, And I would say the same thing if [your GF] were refusing to ever do something with you that you really cared about despite it being silly and trivial to most people.

So yes, I would definitely still feel the same way about this situation if the genders were reversed. Though I wouldn't describe how I feel about it as "up in arms," so much as "just one of the many, many things that get discussed on this comm about which I have an opinion." Not unlike yourself, it would seem.
