when you use a yardstick and play "air" bass on it...
when you see Bass Pro shop and wish it was full of bass guitars..
when you "play" along with the bass during a funk song on the dance floor instead of dancing..
when you turn the treble all the way down and the bass all the way up...
get the bass player thinking you are gawking at them when you are really watching their fingers...
and finally (this is my issue now)..you are having it really bad..out of job, hubby out of job (disabled), you need contacts bad b/c you are only wearing one (the other lost) and you go out and buy a bass and saving up for the second one a week after that! which is what this bass o holic is doing now!!!

When you get dumped for playing the bass too much. True Story. 
Also, when you get dumped for playing the bass too much, you can't help but feel like you did something right.

Something like, 'Awesome! Now I have more time to play bass!'
When you have days here and there where you spend a couple of hours browsing/responding to threads/posts...

When your girlfriend, who would otherwise have no reason to know who level 42 is, knows at least a couple songs and the lyrics off any Level 42 album you play on the stereo.
