Do you share any hobbies with your partner?

[Anonymous]

Whether it be cooking, sports, music, running. Or do you mostly each do your own thing?

[Anonymous]

We share some hobbies but not all. Its fun to do things together but fine to do things that other person isn't interested in. Just be respectful and accommodating of each other's needs.

Travel and theater.

We haven't watched many movies together since streaming made choice unlimited. There are just too many options and our taste is not similar enough. Also my DH likes to binge watch show series. I can't commit to tens of hours on one show.

Not really!! But we report back on our activities to one another.

DH is newly into my hobby and it kind of annoys me, although I know I should be happy about it. I liked having my own thing.

Nope, zero overlap.

I would love to have a shared hobby. But no, no overlap.

We both read (different books). Of course we watch TV (different shows). I exercise (he does not). I do arts/crafts (he does not). He has an online community activities (I do not join).

We can do things like hiking, travel, museums together. We share our kids as an interest.

Pickleball, not always together but try to play together whenever possible.

I'd say common interests, but not hobbies. We both like theater, so we go together. We both like to read, mostly different books, but occasionally we'll stumble on something we both enjoy. In terms of stuff to do, we mostly do that separately, like I'm a birder and he crochets. I like to cook and he like to bake, so sometimes we do that in parallel, but not really together.

I am in a casual choir and he comes along when he has time, but it's more my thing.

His hobby is restaurants, though he probably wouldn't put it that way. So that's a lot of our date nights and I go along with it even though I don't care anywhere near as much as he does.

Well we both like sex. So that’s one. We also both like broadway plays, trying new restaurants, going to beaches off-season, and working out, reading, etc. Then we each have a couple of our own.

[Anonymous]

We like to eat and travel together. We both read but mostly different types of books. Otherwise we pursue our own hobbies separatey.

[Anonymous]

Easy stuff like bicycling, vacations, dinners out, some tv series.

But not stuff like water polo, running, outline levels are vastly different, reading (none vs everything), etc

And definitely not on the same page with cleaning!

Lots of other things, other than golf. I sometimes feel like a golf widow, but when it gets bad and I feel overwhelmed with work and kids, DH gives me time. So it's fine.
