I think you hit the nail on the head. Basically, don’t be obsessed and try to jam it down the other person’s throat

That was one of my thoughts as well. Those who haven't gone down the rabbithole probably think "crypto" and BTC is the same thing.

Often they lump "Bitcoiners", "crypto bros" and "NFT guys" to the same group and obviously they've had bad experiences with the latter 2 groups..

Obviously I can't talk for other Bitcoiners, but if anything I have too many interests 😅

To tack on, people who have a savior complex are insufferable, regardless of the panacea they offer. If you only have one interest, chances are you're not living a balanced life.

Bitcoin & Relationships

Kontext

A couple of thoughts:

1. A LOT of Bitcoin lovers talk about it with a zeal that borders on religious. That's not something that makes for a good first date conversation.

2. A LOT of Bitcoin lovers hyperfocus on it to the extent of not having a lot of other demonstrable interests. If your date is with someone who's not into BTC, you need to find some other common interests. Books, movies, sports, food, something. If you've got nothing in common, there's nothing to build on there.

3. Worse, so many girls have been on dates with guys who essentially try to orange pill them immediately or who can't talk about anything but BTC.  So even if you're well-read, funny, and charming, mentioning BTC too early is a great way to throw up a red flag because of those other guys.
