So my girlfriend really likes Death Cab for Cutie...... and I really dont. Or atleast, I'm trying not to. I know they're really important to her so I'm atleast giving them a chance. But man, I would be lying if I said that playing the opening riff to one of their songs for the first time was a little painful.

But I'm really trying to see what she see's in them. She's doing the same thing for me. She's coming with me to go see Iron Maiden!

Once I thought that the music was the most important thin in my girl-relationship, but then I have a date with a girl who loves metal (like me) she become my girlfriend during 8 months and then I got another conclusion.
There are lot of friends to talk about music, lot of forums and it's not necesary that your girlfriend enjoy the same music of you, the most importat is that you feel confortable with she and the most important ever is that you love this person and this person loves you.

BTW Nowadays a have another girlfriend who likes similar music like I love tongue.gif
