    My Very Last Blog Post - Goodbye

    As of now, I think the time has come to finally abandon my Fimfiction page. I don't particularly want any involvement in the MLP community any longer and I hold no interest in continuing to be an active member. While my page remains open to everyone, I've logged out permanently and don't think I'll return to it or use it again. No more blogs, no more stories, no related content - it's over.

    I'm never going to be the person that... (Facts of life)

    I'm never going to be the person who goes out drinking with friends in the pub at the end of the week,
    I'm never going to be the person to enter a stable relationship,
    I'm never going to be the person to cry for those who won't cry for me,
    I'm never going to be the person who gives up over a little tough break,

    Either stay or leave. Don't play me about.

    If you're staying, stay.

    If you're playing around with me, kindly fuck off. I'm not in the mood.

    Either follow or don't follow. It really is that simple. Make up your mind already.

    Thank you. :ajsleepy:

    Need a distraction from your low mood? Here's an old photo of my guinea pig :3

    Because I'm sad and because my guinea pig is an adorable fwubby enchanted squeaking potato, here's Oscar laying down and snuggling into his brother, Guinness's guinea bum. Don't ask why he did that, just look at how cute he's being. Requires all the ear rubs. Should have called him Sir Purrsalot. 🐹

    ''Applejack, are you gay?'' French Translation - if you're interested.

    Back when I introduced this story a few years ago, I was approached by a French Translator called Rainbowsoarin007 and they requested me to allow them to turn my story into a French translation for viewers in that part of the world and those who speak it.

Ladies, I have a question for you that's baffled me for years that only you can answer about guitarists... · 6:14pm Aug 25th, 2020

Okay, ladies, answer me a question that has baffled me for years:

Why do girls find guitar players / musicians attractive?

WHY?

Comments ( 8 )

I'm a guy, but I can answer that for you.

They don't. The passion that musicians have for their craft is what attracts girls, and that goes for anything you're passionate about. I can guarantee that playing a g chord in front of a crowd of girls will not have them running toward you. I um... I know from experience :facehoof:

'Dem's the brakes' would fit well for that one! :derpytongue2:

I only asked about this because I've been watching some videos about it recently. I've noticed almost all videos of guys playing the guitar are wearing a wedding ring. You hear all of those groupie stories about guys in bands instantly being considered 'dateable' because they can play. Passion for the craft sounds like a better answer, honestly. I personally don't try playing to find any action, given that's just stupid, but it was such a cliché misconception that I wanted to hear a proper answer on it that only the female audience can answer.

But hey...as long as you're not that one guy who turns up to a party with your acoustic, you're less of a wannabe. The cringe factor of playing over dear of being categorised as one of those players almost makes me want to quit. :ajsleepy:

I don’t know, I don’t have a girlfriend, so...

Yeah, I used to try and use guitar to get girls, but I learned quickly that that was not the way to do it. Personality gets you chicks. Guitar just gets you other guys who like guitar just as much.

Y'all made the right choice. It's incredibly douchey to use a guitar for the attention of ladies. (So much of a cliché guitarists in college used to impress females is a running joke in almost every TV series at one point or another. Trust me, it's there.)

And yes, true. Having other guitar friends to talk with is better. Makes you have a sense of belonging for a change. Very good community within this hobby, for sure. 💙:pinkiesmile:

Y'all don't need a gf for this. Having one would be great, no lie, but you don't automatically have a relationship magically after learning to play.

5342849
Absolutely, I've met many good friends in the guitar/rock/metal community. No gf, but friends is good enough for me :twilightsmile:

Well yeah, I have played drums in front of people, and I didn’t get a girlfriend from that.

I have a lover, but that’s besides the point. It wasn’t drums, though.
