[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, what are you interested in?[/quote]

Nothing that specific. Like general travel, world news, food, real estate etc...much more general topics. Most people I can converse with very easily but I can't take talking about topics that seem suited for a 12 year old rather than a 35 year old.[/quote]

I'm married to one of the Star Wars nerds. I like Harry Potter (and also SW), but not in such a way that I'd allow it to dominate conversations and display memorabilia in our home. Star Wars is a bit of a current thing, though. Like, I know that we will discuss SW at least twice a year: when the new movies come out in the winter, and when the BluRay comes out in the spring. During those times, I try to be patient with his interest. We have recently gotten back into Harry Potter with our 8yo who is old enough to read the books and discuss them.

If you're not able to talk to hardcore nerds about nerd issues, don't befriend nerds. It's pretty simple.

FWIW, I think that adults who go to Disney multiple times without children are weird. My in-laws do this because they live half an hour away from Disney World, and I think they're weird, but because they are willing to take my kids to Disney every time we visit while I stay at home and read a book or take a nap, I don't complain about it.
