writes: I am friends with a guy whom I met at work. He is 3 years my junior. We seem to get on well when we hang out, apart from his music taste. He has an enthusiasm for rock music, or songs of that genre, and he also enjoys playing the bass lines to them (on his bass guitar). The songs bore me more than the instrument so when we hang out, it is one thing I have to 'put up with'. If he doesn't have the instrument to hand, then he often talks about it instead... however, when we are separate, I', not sure why, but I have a tendency to 'miss' him. My parents aren't keen on him as he comes across as distant (in person and via text messages), possibly due to his apparent history of depression. However, I like him more than any of the other guys I have hung out with and don't want problems to hinder of friendship. Why do I miss him? Is it normal and what shall I do about his music hobby?? Please help.

Yes, Its normal to miss your guy friends and also normal to find stuff you dont like that they do like.
If your wondering wether he's more than a friend then i think he's not tbh.

I think you'll find you really miss his friendship. Perhaps he's just a nice guy. All right, so you don't share the same love of music, but maybe he's just a good friend who's there for you. You'll have to put up with the music, but you could always ask if he'd like to do something else.
