I totally understand how you feel. But he's obviously choosing you for a reason.

It's better to have a partner who isn't into exactly the same stuff as you because it can get pretty stale. But even within that there can be differences. Like my partner and I like anime, but we don't watch the same genre (though we do watch Demon Slayer and Jujutsu Kaisen together). And similar with video games, there are some we enjoy together, but I don't enjoy games like Destiny or card games, and they're not a huge fan of The Sims, or visual novels. But we both hype each other up for our interests and even ones we don't have any major interest in. It'd be pretty boring to have a partner be into the exact same thing as you I reckon.
