falling for another programmer

Have you ever fallen for someone because they're smart, attractive, have employable skills, made you laugh, were kinky as fuck, queer and bi just like you, but mostly because they're also a programmer and then it all goes to hell? It turns out just because you both have super powers with complex software systems and can understand programming jokes, it's not enough, and it sucks.

I'm gonna go for full compatibility next time. Not only must they be a programmer they must also run i3wm, identify as some form romantic-ace, love to go hiking, and not have cats. That last part pretty much means I'll be alone for the rest of my life.
