Re: The Bitcoin Relationship Thread: G/F, Wife, Significant Other...etc... Tales...
I'm single and when I'm on a date (never a first date) I love to talk about Bitcoin and explain how it works just to test the other person's reaction. I honestly don't care whether they like Bitcoin or not; it is really just a test of how open minded they are to new ideas, especially ideas which conflict with something they already believe. If they aren't capable of adopting new concepts and ideas, how are they going to share new concepts with me? One person to whom I explained Bitcoin had no response. When I asked for one I just got "Well it's interesting, I just don't think it'll work."
As if it doesn't already work.
For a variety of reasons I don't talk to that person anymore.

Well, if everyone believe it'd work, then great ideas would be automatic successes.
The Apple computer and the HP exec telling Woz that they weren't interested in a personal computer...
IBM execs telling Bill Gates the money was on the hardware...
MP3's
file sharing services
streaming...
so many ideas were perceived as flawed or unfeasible...
But anyways, I'm off-topic here
You basically illustrated my point. One girl says "I don't think bitcoin will work", so a neckbeard breaks up with her instead of just being patient because "fuck anyone who has a different religious, political or technological opinion than me!".
