You seem like a really nice guy. Truly. I would stop the tickling bit. A social worker chum told me that tickling can be actually abusive (?)...I dont get it too much, but thats what she said. Something to do with control and boundaries? I tickled my sister constantly as a kid. Go figure.

Anyhoo, in my experience, musicians often watch their friends move on, because music was more of a fun hobby to them, and once they got their degree in accounting or some such, they left and got on with their futures that way.

If you dont put love first, you wont yeild a long term type relationship. Ive seen lots of musicians make this mistake with their wonderful girlfriends/wives, thinking, "My music has to come first this year"...surprise, bye bye girlfriend.

These are just commonalities Ive seen, as I have been around musicians most of my life (Dad was/is a musician).

On the other hand, regardless of what you do, many of us cannot find our match.


The idea is to find the right one, not how long you can make it last. I wouldnt worry too much if I were you. I think youre doin better than you give yourself credit for.

Honestly i would rather someone hit me then tickle me its one of the few things that can make me cry and get cranky. Hate it.

having a relationship is to individuals
as change is
to diapers

can't resist "changes". got to keep "moving"!
