...as his eyes are closing and he drifts into a dream-filled sleep. That would normally be fine, except you just shared your deepest interests and passions with him. The truth is, though, should he even feign interest in the possible repercussions of a neurological breakthrough? Or, better yet, that you just learned about the composition of blood and what connects this to this, and what is SO amazing about the human body? It's mind blowing when you break down what we require to move even an eyelid!
My answer would be yes. While it stinks that he would have to feign interest, at least it would be something. An enthusiastic nod, a question or two to show that the wheels are turning, or even a smile that says "I love you for your brain". For someone that loves this kind of science, it's very difficult to comprehend someone not being passionate about it. You become surrounded by others that share your passions, only to come home to someone that has absolutely no interest. It's hard to find the balance.
Sometimes all you can think about is how you developed an interest in his world. You've never liked video games, you play them now. You've never cared for tv, much less ANYTHING sci-fi, and you watch them and get excited. With him. For him. Are women just better at faking (ha!) or are we just more open to considering new experiences?
