Aside from her crap music taste though the girl seems ok even offering you a ride. I mean you can always tell her to turn off her 'sounds' when she drives with you coz 'i prefer hearing your voice' wooooo!
Rawr rawr rawr! Anything that I don't like is crap! Rawr rawr rawr!

I like dubstep but it's really for the dance floor, not the car. I don't think this one incident is worth dumping her over, you'll just have to come to an agreement over the music when you're in the car together. The last guy I dated was into screamo death metal, which I cannot stand in the least, but would graciously find an alternative when we were together.

And consider this an opportunity to expand your horizons and maybe help expand hers as well.

I sort of agree and sort of don't with OP. I won't date a girl that likes r&b for instance, but that's because we're usually on two completely opposite sides of the spectrum if you like r&b. From style, to attitude, personality, it just can't work. But I think that has more to do with the culture behind the sound, rather than the OP making his decision solely based on the sound.

Surely you jest! I know, that was purely rhetorical!

Huh? People that like rnb have a certain attitude, personality or style? Really? Because of "culture." Um sure.......

**I know lots of white people that listen to rnb
**I know rednecks that listen to rnb (guess what, we don't have much in common in culture or style)
**I know wealthy Europeans that listen to rnb, and guess what we aren't all that similar in culture either

There are a few things someone's taste in music tells you:
1. if they only listen to one kind of music, and refuse to listen to something else, that close-mindedness tends to transfer to other areas in their life
2. If they are open to listening to many types of music, that open-mindedness tends to translate to other areas of their life
3. People who refuse to compromise on the radio station choice probably do not compromise in other areas of life
4. If you don't have any overlap in terms of taste in music, and music appreciation, and if one of your favorite social activities is listening to music or going to concerts, than it is probably a bad fit.

People of all personalities, styles, cultures and attitudes listen to all types of music. Not all people who listen to heavy metal are anarchists or anti-christianity. Not all people who listen to techno are drug addicted ravers. Not all people who listen to rap/hip hop are gangster thugs. Not all people who listen to contemporary christian music are evangelicals.......

What if she likes many different styles?.....not just R&B? I've rarely met a person who only likes ONE style of music. If you sat them down and went through a list of titles, they'd probably say, "Oh, yeah, I like that one, oh yeah, I forgot about THAT one. Oh hey! I used to listen to THAT one, all the time." On and on you'd go. Now take all of those songs and put them into their style categories and you'd quickly find out that they like a variety of styles.

If you find a person who will ONLY listen to a certain style of music...and flat out HATES all other styles..... RUUUUUUN!!!
