The guy who played the flute in my middle scholl band was the captain of the football team in high school.

Anna - don't forget that an oboe player usually starts out as a flutist. That means the guy plays a flute and plays it long enough to start playing the oboe. Yikes.

Until this post, I had completely forgotten that my most recent long-term boyfriend had played the flute in his high school band. I just remember he told me about it, then played "Colors of the Wind" for me, and then we never spoke about it again. This sounds like a super-boring dream, but it most definitely happened in real life. I'm surprised at myself, as I am typically vehemently hyper-critical, I cannot believe I let this one slide through the cracks for two years, and the year apart that has followed it. Lucky him.

What about guys who played multiple instruments? Like, if a guy played the guitar and the flute, does that just make him middle of the road? Just, uh, as an example.

And girls who play D&D (or at least express curiousity) are irresistible to guys, even if the guy has never played D&D in his life. Discovering that when dating someone keen... man. It's like finding out your favorite sandwich cures cancer.

It's not that I'm holding it against him, I'm just saying that it's altered my perception of him. It's like finding out that the guy you're dating is into Dungeons and Dragons. I'm not gonna break up with him over it, but now he'll always be the D+D guy.

ok, no, you wouldn't have dated the guy in 8th grade (neither would i) - but you're still going to hold it against him? is he ashamed of it? because if he's not, then fine, hold it against him, but if he is leave the poor guy alone! you don't have anything you're embarassed about from that age?

If a guy serenaded me with a harp unironically, I'd have to start a whole new blog called Idontwantyourharp.com where I would just post how many times I'd get douche chills reliving the memory of the incident.

I didn't play an instrument in high school... hopefully that's not a dealbreaker. I'd play whatever you want me to play Anna.

bitchy and judgemental? oh, come on. that's what we come here for. don't, like, edit yourself... or something.

anyway, I played guitar in jazz band until I got tired of the teacher giving me crap that we weren't a rock band. why the hell were we playing Wipeout, then?

I wonder what guys have to think about what instruments we played?

For the record my high school didn't have a marching band but I went through 9th grade garage bands like they were going extinct.
