To some extant, it may prove advantageous for you to pursue such hobbies, even with dating considered. Consider the fact that people tend to bond over shared interests and hobbies; even if these are 'old man hobbies' or if your interests are slightly left-field, the fact that so few people that are into such things might give you an edge over other men, as you will be able to appeal more to women who share such minority interests, while avoiding the competition that comes with holding too many cookie-cutter interests and taste. Of course, on the flip side, such women as those that share your interests might be rare, but if you come across such a woman, the two of you will likely become good friends at least (and you'll have conversation-starters, I'm sure).
