Romance

So, random question: for those of us in relationships, do the two of you have a song that you think is 'yours'?

I dedicated "Nothing Else Matters" to Lisa the other day when we were doing karaoke (and hopefully I sounded half-decent).

She, on the other hand, has claimed "I Touch Myself."

Hrm. Pocky and I don't really have a song.

I've heard girls at school complain about that because when they break up with the guy, they hate the song that they used to love.

A romantic theme song for your relationship seems kind of tacky.

It doesn't have to be a theme song. Just a song the two of you can both relate two and bond over.

Personally, none of my past relationships have had "songs," as two of them were just terrible, and the rest just never developed that far.

My ex and I didn't have any specific song, though she did introduce me to some music which I still listen to now. Best thing I ever got out of that relationship was a Best of Electric Light Orchestra CD. (Though, ironically, she hated ELO )

Though I guess one thing, at the homecoming dance the year we went out, the last song played was that song "Stereo Love" (which, if you know it, does not at all fit as the last dance for something like that), and I always seem to associate it with her now, and how I awkwardly tried to kiss her but utterly failed because I'm an idiot

Pretty In Scarlet

me and my old partner used to do this routine(and I guess we still do)

man I should text him again. that'd rule.

I feel kind of bad for the friend I mentioned a few pages back.

Apparently her other group of friends invited her to an outing. She was all excited about it. Then when she got there she found out they only invited her so that they'd have an excuse for the parents, because the two that invited her were dating behind their parents' backs.

While it is a sort of weird karma thing (and she is aware of that, she's the one that said so), I still feel bad for her.

I really hate high school drama. I wonder if people ever grow out of it. ~_~

Some people do, some people never do. I can attest that I have one friend at least who hasn't, but she's also one of those types who always claims to hate drama but is always involved in drama anyway.

I have a friend like that. Same friend, actually. >_>

Best thing to do, I've found, if they come to you with a problem, just humor them. Let them talk about it. Reassure them that it's important, or of whatever they're saying. Telling them that they're being unreasonable has no visible effect.

You're Not Alone? :v

Yeah, that's what I usually do. Or try to do, at any rate.

I really didn't know what to say about her situation, though. It's not as if I have that much experience in this area of romanonsense and high school dating. (I don't even plan on having any experience in the area of high school dating.)

She called about a Pokemon game, but it was sort of a flimsy excuse to call and I know that she knows that I can usually tell when someone's sad through tone of voice. ~_~ So I just asked what's wrong and then we went through that whole tirade of "I don't know if I should tell you / you won't understand / I'm not going to tell you" which usually indicates she's going to tell me anyway and makes me feel like shit on top of it all. ._.

EDIT: Wait, my train of thought got derailed. What I'm trying to ask is what am I supposed to say to something like that? ._.

I'm usually that friend ^note  Or so they say. , and it saddens me I somehow tire people out over my drama, that's why I liked keeping it to myself and then choose hard who to dump it to. ._.

If so, then you should look out for people like me, who rather that you skip to the point and get straight to the feelings jam rather than tell me how stupid and likely I am to not listen first. XD

I don't mind listening. I don't like it if you give me backhanded compliments/thinly-veiled insults while you do it, though.

You don't do that, though. :3 You're rather nice about it, which is what I like about you.

RE Relationship song: I'm not in one but I'd like to think I'd pick a song that more on the 'awesome' side of things than specifically related to romance or the relationship.

Especially something we could just belt out like idiots for shits n' giggles.

Example:

DIG through the ditches and BURN through the witches and SLAM in the back of my DRAGULA~!

The best one of those I ever heard was

Unfortunately not mine.

That would be a good one indeed.

Another one for fun 'singing like idiots' is good ol' Chop Suey!:

Oh, I don't think you trust~

Mine's worse. My first kiss song relationship song that would remind me of my ex I wanted was Taylor Swift ~ We are never, ever getting back together which is the time where I still hated her voice.

Now I have a crush on her but that's a whole different bag of beans.

I bet the song "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" is about Taylor Swift's legs.

Pocky, you so funneh!

The first time I heard it on the radio, I thought it was alright and kinda funny.

Then I heard that it was by Taylor Swift. D:<

My wife and I have two songs:

Boris the Spider by The Who and Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol.

Most people do, but not all. I suppose the minimum wage admin. workers have to get their entertainment where they can.

The pair of you have good taste.

I do. My wife's taste in music is, I'm afraid, otherwise a bit iffy.

I mean, Limp Bizkit? Tsk.
