Musicians and their women (RANT)

A guitarist friend of mine has what I consider skills, he stops his car to ask a chick if's she's O.K after falling off her bicycle....he's repaid with a ride (ahem), He ask's a chick in a store for advice on a Xmas present...she gives him one early, I just think he smelled right in a pheromone sort of way, well, that was my excuse anyway :)

psst... He uses Axe Body Spray, obviously
 
Wow. Sounds almost like a movie!

LOL! I never thought of it that way, considering that it didn’t turn into a lasting relationship (though it was fun!), but it’s just a good example of being able to find women almost anywhere, just approach them and engage in an intelligent conversation, and there’s a good chance you will walk away with a phone number. The Goodwill thing actually happened twice, the second time was just a couple of weekends ago, same deal, looking at books. This time the lady in question started talking to me about a book, and we talked for a good 10 minutes about our reading habits. I would have asked for her number if I didn’t have a girlfriend.

Book stores and library's best places to pick up women. I used to just browse my books store for a good read and the pretty girls. www.abebooks.com then I found that site and realized how much I was over spending on books. Sorry, a women is a women but a deal is a DEAL!!! :D
 
...The original inhuman beast I was complaining about dragged things out after I calmly and peacefully said we should call it quits, saying I was just starting to fix my yelling and jealousy issues. I agreed, in an effort to be more "calm" and even apologized for getting mad that she once again canceled plans with me to hang out with her "two best buddies". She had been sleeping with buddy #1 for two months, and after I caught them, I found out about two more guys she had been sleeping with.

To the guy who said there's no room for two Drama queens... when someone doesn't just walk away, blames you for the problems, convinces you to keep working on things, all the while boning the guy she's calling you jealous about... it's not drama on your part... it's trauma.

Lesson learned. To those of you in iffy relationships with crazies... the poster who said "you haven't lived until you've walked out on a tantrum" is right. It's only a sign of things to come, and why stick around until you get burned and make some mortal enemies over a girl (or guy) who's just feeding a self esteem issue with attention, even if it's negative.

So you were dating my ex-wife?
 
I wouldn't be surprised if I was, although she was a bit young to have an ex husband in SoCal... sorry matticus... at least I can call this piece of work an ex girlfriend, not an ex wife. I would've been out for much more than a measly borrowed $350. Now I'm just more interested in what I could've added to my gear for the cash I dropped. Probably that Stingray I miss so much.
 
My $350 was putting things on my credit card because she paid everything in cash... I wanted her to have emergency money for a trip to NY so I handed her a $100 bill and paid for her flight and told her "I can't afford to pay for it, but I can afford to have you pay me back when you're back safe and sound"... that was in February.

I make sure to let any serious ladies know that I don't have much, but my instruments and pets are and always will be untouchable.
