Please don't be surprised but my only unmarried friend here and also one of my cousins has been actively trying to find a Bitcoiner girl to date. I knew his wish for about a year now but I never took it seriously because I thought he must be joking for he's a kinda stand-up comedian.
However today while having a long general conversation with him about the two recent marriages in our family, he seemed like he's desperate and serious “I don’t want to spend my life explaining what's Bitcoin like you can to my Bhabhi (my wife)”, he stressed. I was taken aback because it's true and it's nothing that I ever thought about while marrying myself. I know my wife won't understand a bit about Bitcoin one because she doesn't want to and two she is very spiritual and much less educated like she even doesn't know English at all.
So, because I got a little offended I offered him a lot of reasons why he should just marry a good girl, and leave his desperation but it did nothing help to convince him. He is convinced a non-Bitcoiner relationship is NGMI for him. What it did though left me gasping more on the topic of philosophical monetary compatibility in relationships. Sure I didn't agree with him… but I started thinking about my own relationship and realized, yeah, it can matter or matter not, it depends at least in contemporary world.
I'm now more curious to explore it in the context of a future world when Bitcoin is much more mainstream. Let's say..... in 2050 a Bitcoiner....
Will date someone who wouldn't care about Bitcoin at all?
will readily date an open-minded but clueless person about money?
will date someone who is a fiat-maxi/gold-bug etc?
I know there are lot more questions because it all depends......but Bitcoin compatibility will be the ultimate filter of love and long term relationships in future.
... And at last My defense for the day when she learns to read, write, speak and understand English....
Stackers, I dare to say that Bitcoin or any type of monetary thing has nothing to say in my relationship with my wife, I have in her what I always desired, She is the prettiest, most lovable woman for me in the whole universe.
I wonder if your friend is just using bitcoin as a cover for not wanting to commit to a relationship? It seems foolish to base decisions of love & marriage on bitcoin.

I did narrate him about the foolishness but he didn't feel like a fool in his arguments. He's 27 and the only one remaining single among my cousins. He said he would wait 5 more years before he would have to commit to a non bitcoiner. He essentially doesn't want a bitcoiner wife directly but needs a girl who can understand money, bitcoin, who he can orange pill while dating and then marry. Yeah that was his point.
reply
I don't need to find someone who is a bitcoiner but they can't actively be against Bitcoin
reply
Yes, that should be the attitude. Good one, I'll make this argument.

think back to 1990 and replace bitcoin with "the internet"

Will you date someone who wouldn't care about the internet at all?

won't be a factor... she doesn't need to be an internet nerd to use and rudimentary understand it
reply
Yeah nice catch! I'll throw this to him tomorrow.
