Have you and your significant other passed the content compatibility test?

Can you both tolerate each other’s content day after day? It’s essential in an age when we spend 13 hours a day staring at screens.

Most of the old relationship barriers (differences in age, religion, race, and culture) seem old-fashioned. What if you prefer vastly different content? All who live together must go through this test. Here’s a famous example:

When Sinatra met Mia Farrow: They fell in love, but he couldn’t stand her music

Frank Sinatra was three decades older than his third wife, Mia Farrow. Their love was forever, but living together as a couple was trickier.
