Is that old saying "girls marry guys like their fathers" ?

My menfolk are nothing alike, actually. Except for the fact that they both wear glasses and have beards. Hubby is tall and gangly, dad is short and podgy. Personality-wise - the biggest difference is that my dad has a very quick temper, small things bug him, and he's utterly dependent on us womenfolk to wait on him. Hubby is MUCH calmer - in 3 and a half years of marriage I've never once heard him raise his voice, mA. He is also pretty independent, can look after himself, etc.
HOWEVER - they ARE alike in sharing the same core values regarding morals, family, deen etc. and both come to the same conclusions when assessing people's character. Oh and they both love food, shopping for food, and inviting people over for dinner
But personally I don't hold that saying to be universally true anyway.
sally: It's not necessary to have exactly the same interests. You can spend time together doing both things you mutually enjoy, and in sharing each other's different interests. You can spend an afternoon doing something one of you likes, and the next time do something the other likes. It's also an opportunity to learn more about other pursuits from each other - you might even end up enjoying the activity for its own sake.
