Well, I'm sincerely sorry to hear that you're growing out of the guitar. Myself being the fanatic that I am, I encourange anyone to participate in music and I'd just say think about it nice and hard. As far as I can recall, since I've gotten into music everything else is second...Including my love life. I've been playing guitar for 2 years and bass for 3 years, 20 years old and I've never had a girlfriend. Every so often I wonder if I should go find one, but when I've got my guitar in hand I just forget everything I normally think of. All I know is that music is the very reason why I am here today and I'll never leave it, not for anyone or anything, but that's a lengthy/personal story for another time.
