That sucks.. Could you accept him for what he likes and move on together? Hope you're doing alright.

LMAO! He wouldn't have stuff if he was pretending. Have fun living a lie and not accepting him for who he really is.

The news are: you don't love him. Because love is something you feel for someone as a whole. Then, there shouldn't be something that big, being a part of his personality, that you hate.I would accept that you tell me you hate the way he brushes his teeth. Which is insignificant if we talk of his personality. But liking manga, swords and such is and outstanding mark of his personality.

What's wrong with that stuff? Sounds like a fun guy with good taste.
If you don't like it, choose someone else instead of being judgemental.

And you "love" him?
If he likes those things he's going to like them, you either accept someone's interests or you don't, he shouldn't have to change to be "cool."
If he wants you to dress up as an elf you can definitely refuse, but why not allow him to do things and you to do yours.
If it bothers you so much find a new boyfriend (I see nothing wrong with being a "geek").
