That's total bullshit, sorry.

I've had fantastic relationships with people who like music I hate, and bad ones with people who like the same genres as me.

You can't judge someone's personality by their music taste outside of it just being basic or not. Such a strange thing to hang your hat on.

If you can't connect with music you can't connect with other people. It's a core connector.

If you can't connect with someone just because they don't like the same music as you then there's definitely something wrong with you

You'll never be happy with that person if you don't like the same music. Like I would never date anyone who likes Country Music. That is a hard stop for me as it says that you have no taste and like things that are bland and boring. I'm more of an Alterative Rock type of person and sought connections with those who like that style of music. Being Gen X that wasn't hard to find.

Never be happy? What a completely moronic take. Honestly I think you should keep avoiding people who don't like the same music as you, they're probably better off without you around them.

Music is a core piece of a cohort and not sharing an interest in the same music will always lead to conflict and breakup.

Maybe if you're a child, or have the emotional range of a child

People break off relationships for a lot less.

I can't think of anything less serious to break up with someone over than music taste. That's the most superficial shit I've heard in a while

It's a core cohort connection, it is not superficial. It is on par with speaking the same language.

You know what, I was about to rant and rave in retaliation to that ridiculous statement you just made but I decided I'm not gonna pull my hair out trying to wrap my head around your point of view. I'll just say that you and I don't operate on the same wavelength. Enjoy your life fellow person
