Musical Attachments

By Daniel Soriano June 2, 08:24 AM

Ladies, stop sending music to guys as a way of explain your feelings if we don’t understand when you verbalize them to us; we will not understand it better with a soundtrack. It was hot when we were teenagers and had CD’s or, for older persons, tape cassettes. But sending it in an email with an MP3 attachment is so wrong.

If you make the mistake of sending a song, don’t send one by a good-looking artist or, even worst, a Beyonce song. Doing so is overestimating our intelligence. We will listen to the song thinking about how sexy Beyonce is and how much we want to sleep with her. I know you thought you were proving something by sending him the woman break-up anthem song “Irreplaceable,” but, in reality, all we think about when receiving these musical headaches is “why the hell is she sending me this? I really don’t have time for this.”

FYI, a four-page letter won’t work, either - we dread it. The best way to communicate, therefore, is to wait until a little time has passed, then discuss your feelings with us. In the meantime, ladies, please keep your musical feelings to you and your iPod only.
