Why Women Can't Resist Rock Stars
user
Were it not for the idea of
a broken heart, many of rock 'n' roll's greatest love
songs would be without a subject. Country music would have
certainly never survived and the blues would refer to spending a
Saturday afternoon at the laundromat with your Levi's. Thank
goodness for the tortured souls who thought to pick up a guitar and
air their
dirty laundry.
Finding comfort in the arms of a rock star is easy to do when
you've got good-looking men like Justin Timberlake, Tim McGraw
and Chris Martin telling you it will be all right. We've spent
many a night wrapped up in our iPods believing that the answer to
our
heartache lies at the end of a Bon Jovi ballad. So it's no
surprise that women fall hard for musicians, especially the
troubled ones.
Dating a musician is notoriously difficult. Giggling groupies
who don't know the difference between their left boob and a
sheet of loose leaf paper lurk at every corner. Even if you're
not the jealous
type, the late nights, intense concentration and weeks apart
while he's on tour can cause a girl to go insane. Under what
other circumstances would you find yourself waiting curb side for
an 18 wheeler to turn up in the middle of the night?
Yet there's something about
stage presence that turns musicians into magic. We know for
certain that John Mayer was pumping gas before he was driving
Hollywood's A list wild. How he went from average to
Jennifer Aniston can only be attributed to his ability to wax
poetic about her wonderland.

The key to getting and keeping a rock star is to wait until they aren't a retired. ;-) I married a man who was in a very popular 70's/80's band on the east coast when he was in his 20's and early 30's. He got all his ya-ya's out and also wasn't the typical a-hole musician. I LOVE the fact that he was wild and had so much fun then. He feels he got a hot woman now at age 57 (I'm 44) and I think it's awesome. He's amazing, loving, caring, sweet, honest, attentive, understanding, etc. He's always what I wanted and more! Timing is everything!!
