--> I have a sort of dillema. I have been making techno for the past couple of months and have showed everyone my work even my mom, except for my girlfriend. I dont know if i could ever tell her. She knows or atleast has seen, my midi controllers/interfaces/expensive record players/sweet stereo system. She hasnt seen me make music, because she doesnt live with me, but I would kind of like to share my passions with her, but I am afraid. How does one come out of the electrocloset?
So far I have been playing more and more dance music in the car when we are driving around, and around the house. Maybe one day I will slip in one of my songs. "baby i have to tell you something. Im, Im a ..... this might be tough to take, you should sit down. I am an electronic musician."
Lots of pressure. Anyway, what are your guys thoughts? Have you told your significant others?

that makes me want to puke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you like the girl and are proud of what you do... there shouldn't be a problem. Plus... why would you want to be with someone who wasn't into you doing the sorts of things you enjoy? If she's quality then she'll tell you about her secret My Little Pony collection... Garbage Pail Kids.

mullet - free sex? You often go in for the alternative???

Lara: it got my point across, then. ;)

if you like a girl, buy her flowers

hey, no matter how you slice it, whether it's through money or pain, humiliation, and tears, you pay for sex...

i'm sorry - still a little lost -
if you're passionate about making music, how are you NOT talking about it?
isn't it constipating you creatively?

and, if she's seen your gear, i doubt it's going to shock her.

way out of proportion, these concerns

and that's how things work with girlfriends -- if they've seen your gear, and they still come back... you're in.

so many puns there - the mind boggles

This all seems a bit strange to me. I guess I've never met anyone who could be so turned off by someone else's creative pursuits that they'd somehow be a deal-breaker, I mean unless those pursuits include assaulting or hurting people, or building / playing with weapons. But, everyone is passionate about something, whether it's making music, playing golf, or eat fudge sundaes. Why would e-music be any different than any other interest?

It's not like you sculpt decapitated babies' heads out of your own poop or something equally shocking
