To have a stable relationship with a girlfriend, you have to be friends with her. In other words, if the two of you don't even work as friends, then being in a romantic relationship (which is infinitely more complicated) is out of the question.
In psychology class I learned that certain people in a relationship, I forget the name, it was one of several types of romantic relationships, or something like that, don't share interests but do share intimacy.
Although, some degree of social bonding is probably likely in any relationship. Maybe even down to the streetcorner.
