Hello all. Yes I know I have stooped making one of these threads but I think its time I get something off my chest. I'm having serious relationship problems with my guitar.
It all started off so well. We used to spend every spare minute we had in each others arms. At University people said we were a perfect match and I couldn't of been happier. It was all good until the holidays showed up.
I couldn't wait, all this free time. The perfect opportunity to become one with a plank of wood and some strings. But, somehow it all went wrong. As I worked and enjoyed spending time with new friends, I didn't seem as interested in my guitar anymore. It would lie their on my bed seductively, waiting for me to arrive home sp we could then have the time of our lives. But instead I would sit down and watch TV. Or surf the internet. Or socialise. My guitar was certaintly noticing something was up.
The time we did spend together was unsatisfying. The less effort I put into our relationship, the sourer it became. I began to struggle playing things I considered 'my standard', and became uninspired by listening or playing to any other music. It all began to fall apart. I made a thread recently about trying to learn a song thinking it might help spice things up in the bedroom, but despite andelusions advice, I couldn't perform and we were both left very frustrated.
To summerise: I have lost my passion to play the guitar
Now I don't know what to do. I don't want to lose what I have and had because it was so special, yet it seems destined that everything gained will be wasted.
Is this normal? Will things pick up again? Help me members of OCUK music!

And yeah, maybe its the lack of 'musical glory' you get in your bedroom that is dampening things
