 Posted: Thu May 17, 2007 3:17 pm Post subject: Is This A Good Birthday Gift For Her? |
 |
|
| I am a musician and it's my best friend's birthday, a person who I once briefly dated and am still madly in love with a never got over. Alas, she did and is getting married a few days after my birthday this year. However, I want to get her a birthday gift. Since she knows how I'd really splurge on her, she has told me not to buy her anything, so I thought I'd do something else instead. Being a musician and having a studio in my house, I thought of creating a melody full of connecting songs (think Abbey Road side 2) written by me all about her and what she means to me. Of course, some of the songs I'd do as different characters, some as myself, but the message would still be the same and it'd be a full-production, me playing all the instruments. Do you think this is a good idea? Do you think it might give off an "I'm still in love with her" impression? In other words, should I? Or should I avoid it altogether, because it's just a bad gift idea? Any help is appreciated. Thanks |

Well i think that although you are madly in love with her you do realize that she's getting married. This is a big day for her and she has committed to another man. If she is your best friend however, then you are going to get her something for her. She already knows you'll spend alot so i think (depending on your friendship) she mayy know that you still have feelings for her. In any case i think that the music idea is amazing. You are a talented person and doing something like that for her will not be any ordinary gift and she is no ordinary person, right!? Besides the fact that you do like her, she is your best friend! And she said don't buy anything, and your not. You're doing something thoughtful and from the heart. good luck, hopefully you don't cause her to call off the wedding or anything  |

| Writing songs secretly confessing your love to a girl about to be married is crossing the line. Not everything pans out like it does in the movies. If she's happy, and you know she is, don't be selfish. I know it's hard when someone you love doesn't love you back (in that way). If you truly wish her happiness, why don't you write her a wedding song? Something celebrating the union of her new love. She'll love it, and you'll be showing her you love her by doing it. Besides, if you did what you were going to do, you would probably ruin the friendship all together. She would end up feeling uncomfortable around you. Or, worse yet, her new beau will find out and ban her from being around you. Best of luck! |

| I think the concept is a good idea, but focusing on songs that portray your love for her would be inappropriate as she is now married. A variety of songs would be a good choice - i.e. different themes. |
