Well think of it this way, OP, even if they did like you back, you'd be stuck with a romantic partner who spent all their time talking about something you didn't care for at all. That would suck, right?

[visp]

I think most people out there talk about a lot of things - even the biggest geeks who only talk about fandom stuff still have multiple fandoms.

[(Anonymous)]

"now all they like is this", though?

[(Anonymous)]

imo, OP sounds pretty bitter about the show, so it's possible that they're picking up on every mention of Doctor Who and amplifying it. I kind of do the same thing with my friends when they go on about Homestuck; it's not the only thing they talk about, obviously, but sometimes it can feel like that's the only thing they like.

[visp]

Maybe. But think about real life, even your most obsessed friends talk about other things as well.

[(Anonymous)]

That really, really sucks. My sympathies, OP.

[insanenoodlyguy]

But you already don't like the show. Why fucking bother? Some lame hope that this topic of discussion will lead to your crush liking you again? And you want that why?

Otherwise I can't fathom why you bother.

[(Anonymous)]

Hey, feel free to dislike a show for whatever reason, but you sound like you're trying to blame the show for your crush not liking you back, which is...ridiculous. Your crush probably likes your friend because they have shared interests, which are a big factor in relationships. If you don't have shared interests with your crush, chances are you're not that compatible anyway. So really, it sounds like you dodged a bullet.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't get why it's such a big thing. I even tried the episodes that everybody talks about a lot, and they were pretty bad. It's cool with me, people have different tastes, but I'm glad I'm not alone.

[kallanda_lee]

You know what,OP?

It's okay not to like things.

But people generally like talking about their interests. So if your crush was passionate about it, and you were not even willing to converse about it or saying how much you hate it - I can sort of see how and why you parted ways.

Ehm, yes? I don't currently have any DW ones uploaded on Dreamwidth, and I pretty much use any excuse to use Jack.

[kallanda_lee]

Sorry that was me, got logged out somehow.

[velvet_mace]

I kinda get that. A lot of my friends (who I didn't crush on but damn it, they were my friends!) left the fandom we shared for the Naruto fandom. And I found that I felt for Naruto much the way you do about Doctor Who. I simply couldn't get into it, no matter how hard I tried.

And eventually I kinda got a hateboner for Naruto, because, damn it, how could they all get into this canon where it takes 30 chapters and 8 interminably pointless fights for the characters to accomplish something as simple as walking from one village to another. And also, I missed being able to talk with them. Kinda a lot.

[shinyhappypanic]

ugh, isn't it just so painful watching your crush discuss a show you don't watch with your friend? (not being sarcastic, I honestly hate this)

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not sure I understand. First you say it's not a secret that you don't like the show, but at the bottom of the secret you say you'll "come to dislike the show". What? Even more so than what? I understand the bit in your secret about how you're bitter that your crush is talking to someone who shares the same interests as him/her, but the rest of your secret seems to contradict itself.

All they talk about is Doctor Who?

[chardmonster]

And they have developed a crush on one of your friends based mostly on a mutual like of Doctor Who?

CEASE CRUSHING ON THIS LOSER. He or she sounds boring.

Re: All they talk about is Doctor Who?

[(Anonymous)]

This, OP.

Re: All they talk about is Doctor Who?

[(Anonymous)]

Uggggh yes. Anybody who has a single thing they never stop talking about even if the other person is obviously not interested is the worst.

[(Anonymous)]

"Come to dislike the show"? But...you just said you already dislike the show and always have. How can you "come" to dislike the show now?

[bored_bitch]

If this person drifted away from you just because you didn't share ONE interest (however major, in their case), then they probably wouldn't have ever been a good friend / partner, to begin with.

[(Anonymous)]

Sounds more like OP is bitter she can't have the guy, TBH. They'd already drifted, by their own admission.

[(Anonymous)]

Oh goodness me.

Your interests and theirs diverged prior to their obsession with this show, right? Even if s/he didn't like the show, then s/he would still have very little in common with you. Yet you fixate on the show. And now that s/he likes someone else, you've decided that it must be because they are both interested in the show.

Maybe that is the source of the attraction, in which case it's silly and not likely to last. But there's also a good possibility that they have quite a bit in common, and that your irrational dislike of one of their shared interests is obscuring that.

Either way, this whole thing just comes across as incredibly childish.

[(Anonymous)]

This.

OP sounds bitter and childish and wants this person to change just for them. They're both better off without you, OP.
