writes: Hi, I'm eighteen, just graduated from high school, and have a full-ride scholarship to Juilliard; I play concert piano. I'm 6'2" and 195 lbs. I've only ever had one girlfriend and we broke up last year after only two months together. We still have feelings for each other (we hang out more than friends should), but I'm leaving in a couple of months while she's remaining local for the first two years. Afterwards, she's going to New York University.I just have a question, though: Considering I've been a geek-extraordinaire quite literally all my life, do you think I'll ever get another girlfriend in case my ex and I never get back together?

reader, anonymous, writes (3 June 2009): Thank you to all of the responders. I greatly appreciate all the advice everyone has given me. I guess maybe it's because I just got out of high school a little over two weeks ago and it's just now hitting me that I won't get to see my ex-girlfriend again for a long time once Summer is over. I've been attending all of my friends' graduation parties so far and meeting girls I haven't spoken with since freshman year but I keep comparing them to my ex. But I know that I should focus more on my education because I want my Master of Music, I just don't want to end up being lonely is all. Thanks again.

Julliard attending concert pianist...wondering if he's gonna get another GF.Young man, we should all be so lucky. At your age, you have the world ahead of you. And if you are talented enough to get into Julliard, in a few years you will have more pussy than you can stand.Don't even sweat this...they will come...and so will you...many times over.

Obviously there is more to any person than a "type" but characteristics/preferences such as those are what draw people to each other initially. Relationships grow from there. Best of luck!!

You sound like my perfect man i LOVE musicians!!
No seriously you shouldn't worry, Im a musician too, i live, breathe, eat and sleep music im a classical singer and a guitarist.My ex is a bass player and the last guy i saw was a jazz guitarist. The point i am trying to make is there are people out there as geeky as you. You shouldn't even try and think about getting a girl though till your over your x geek, jock or whatever no one likes to be someones rebound girl.You may also find that being creative works in your favour but it sounds like you really like your x and i think the question you should ask your self is "do i want another girlfriend?" rather than "can i get another girlfriend?"

Of course you will!! It's sweet how you still keep in contact with your ex, what i think you should do right now is concentrate on your education, and when the time is right you'll find someone.

1) you're tall. girls like tall.
2) you're at a good weight for your size.
3) you're obviously smart and talented if you have a full ride to Julliard.
4) girls like guys who can play instruments, especially if they can play them very well like you can. and girls tend to think guys who play piano well are hot because piano is kind of moody and brooding and romantic.
5) the fact that you are a geek has little bearing on your ability to get a girlfriend, especially considering the fact that you'll be at Julliard with a lot of talented, intelligent, maybe even "geeky" girls who will probably have a lot in common with you.
i think you'll be fine. besides, you're only 18.

If you manage to get back on track with your ex then great. If not you are moving into a new era in your life. You will be with like minded people who understand where you are coming from.You won't be on your own for long. Talented straight musicians are few and far between. There will be other girls. Enjoy your studies. Good luck. :~)x
