Dating for musicians...?

He seems to be saying that, so far, he has not found any that have a musical understanding near to what he has; or those that do, don't have nearly the same passion as he does for it. I don't know how anyone is getting the idea that he is bashing all women, saying that it is not possible for them. He is just stating his experience.

Rocketdog, you just have to decide how vitally important this is to you and the relationship that you would like to build. If you decide that it is very important (though some may ridicule you for the apparent absurdity of this decision), then it is not a good idea to settle. However, if the girl you are interested in is also interested in developing an understanding of music similar to your own, then that also may be good.

Also, should you decide this is very important, don't be too picky if you should find someone who somewhat fits the bill. For example, if the ignorance is glaringly obvious, like she doesn't even know what a scale is, and couldn't care less, then I can understand. You might as well drop her. But if you get up in arms over the fact that she doesn't know all the chord changes to Wagner's Tannhauser, then definitely get your head out of your ass.
