Agreed. I used to be active when I was young. When I grow old I became a hermit. My hobbies went from sports, music, dancing to singing karaoke, video games, computers, texting, online chatting, to now tv, movie, android games, computers like forums.
My husband is active, he kayaks, he skis (we went to a few), rock climb (did it once with him), and drink with his friends and the bars.
Since we married he was kind of complaining he never does his stuff anymore, oh well. Mind you it took him a year though to not like do them regularly especially the drinking.
This is why I refuse to get into an LTR of any kind, let alone get married. If that works for you two, great. But I know myself: if my partner will prevent me from enjoying my hobbies, which she easily might, I will resent her deeply. And resentment is bad for a relationship.
I just wish I could meet someone with a Tea Party outlook on relationships: namely, less government. But such people seem to be few and far between nowadays. Everybody wants to be joined at the hip, as far as relationships are concerned.

Oh my number 1 hobby - casino! He said he hated it but took me there just last Sunday.
Yeah rock climbers! If you can live with a rock climber and be happy, being a non-rock climber, you are among the elite few.

Why doesn't he do any of those things anymore? I can understand cutting back when priorities change, but why give them up altogether?
Loyal, cuddly, introverted, pulls her weight and is not lazy (example is she is stay at home mom she takes care of all housework) good head on her shoulders, not overly impulsive or flaky

It's not that I tell him what to do like what the other poster is implying. Believe me he does make plans with his friends and then tell me later. He does tell me he is going out with his friends. Emphasis on tell not ask. Like I said on our first year of marriage. He still does what he wants especially the drinking part but to my welcome surprise, he stopped doing it regularly.
He works long hours and he just is tired maybe? I am not complaining that he makes me a priority now unlike in the beginning of the marriage. That's why I was insecure before but now I am very secure.
Also just to add, around after Christmas just a month ago, he drank with his co workers at a bar. And puke the whole night. Yeah, I was sooo pissed.
So he still is in alcoholic mode once in awhile, AND yes a month ago, I closed the bar with him and his friends and I was the designated driver.
Someone who would enjoy traveling to other European continents, taking longs walks daily when weather permits, and going out to dance as often as we can.

I think an interest in me would be a good start.
An interest in physical fitness and overall health is important. If she is artistic or into arts and crafts that is a plus but not necessary. I am easy, We may not always share the same interests or hobbies. Love is much more than being with a clone of yourself.
I am open to learning and trying new things.
