It is possible to be quite opposed to someone's beliefs and have a successful relationship. I did wonder about someone who really went with their intuition over logic, only to discover they had fantastic intuition in a number of areas.

I had a colleague who was a young earth creationist, you could see the cognitive dissonance at work when I explained what my friend's father did as a dendrochronologist. All that science lightly ignored but good and bad growing seasons were too easily understood.
YECs are a really weird edge case here, and not just in relationships. A dear friend of mine had a math prof who was a YEC, and yet apparently an absolutely *fantastic* math prof. (He also apparently had Weird Opinions about the Axiom of Choice!)
