She Doesn't Appreciate Science (Ideas?)

Danger

Astrum, I agree with the others of my generation. It doesn't matter whether or not she loves science, as long as she loves (or even tolerates) you.
The fact that she has some understanding and appreciation of it is a bonus.
You can try sneaking in some stuff once in a while, like pointing out the chemistry (based upon physics) of what's going on as a cake that she is baking is in the oven. Or why some laundry detergents are more effective than others upon some types of stains.
The foregoing was in case that she's a "girly" girl (ie: hoping to be a housewife, ala the 1950's). Gender-neutral examples would be the working of an inertial reel seatbelt system in her car or the physics involved in a passenger elevator.
I don't mean that you should be pedantic or "preachy" about it; you might be able to slide in a simple related fact, and then elaborate if she bites the bait.
Even if you don't do that, or you do and it doesn't work, don't abandon the relationship because of it. You two obviously have something, and that's worth holding on to regardless of common ground.

People are different and just because someone doesn't share your interest doesn't mean it's the end of the world. You can't make her like something she has no interest in, if this is a dealbreaker for you then that's that but ask yourself if it is really? There are other things in the world than science, even (especially) for scientists.

Astrum

Yes. I know what you're saying. I'm NOT going to leave her over something like this. I really love her. Really really really love her. She's mine, I love her as she is.

I'm not always thinking about science, we both have hobbies that we like to do. I just thought that it would be fun to talk about science with her.

She loves me a great deal too. We're all set in the love/friendship department. Neither of us have any intentions of leaving each other.

I'll try to work some science in to our usual conversations...in a sly manner.

That statement is probably the worst mistake that you have made in the entire relationship. You don't own her any more than she owns you or Abercrombie Zirk owns either one of you. You are individuals. Anyone who hopes to have a successful joined life has to realize that.

Astrum

I know. I never claimed to own her. It's just a thing we say. "My girl", "my boy". We give each other plaenty of personal space, and we always encourage each other to make our own choices.

Anyway, I'm not asking for realtionship adivce. Everything is going really well. I'm very pleased.

Are there things she is interested in that you don't "get"? Maybe she's feeling the same way...
