I like your suggestion to learn to learn to like things. If anyone is looking for things to learn to like, these are some nice ones.
Ligeti's etudes (and other 12-tone music); www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0qoue0JbbU
This piece by Charles Ives; www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBU_XzWZNtc
Plays! You don't need to buy hundred-dollar tickets to fancy Broadway shows; community theater productions are often comically horrible in movies, but I've only seen good ones in real life (I did just put drama in a group with Ligeti etudes and cowboy music, but not because it's really weird).
Upvoted for reccommending Ligeti! I'm working on a thesis about Ligeti for my degree in composition, he's a marvellous composer.
If I may offer one slight correction: Ligeti's Etudes aren't 12-tone compositions; they're atonal, but written according to rules of his own devising rather than using the rows and permutations of 12-tone/serialist music. I don't think he wrote any serialist works after he left Hungary.
That said, I haven't examined all of the etudes in detail so I could be wrong.
