Definitely. I love the sounds a guitar makes, but I just can't get around playing it. Bass on the other hand...

Yesterday I received a box of leaves in the mail from my girlfriend. Some were cut into letters for me to decipher a message. The only hint I had were that colors alternated. After a few hours, I cracked it. These are lyrics from Anthony Green's "Babygirl"; I showed her the song like a month ago and I thought she was just like "ok, that's cute" or whatever, and even if that's all it was the second I figured this out I just felt so happy and had a goofy grin on my face.
This girl is amazing.

That'd be nice haha. Haven't been dating very long and going to different schools sucks, but I definitely feel like this is something that has potential to last a long time. Knock on wood.

That's true, not saying I want or need to get married, but just the general thought of being with her for a long time makes me feel content.
Sorry to anyone if this thread is getting to personal or whatever haha.
