Ladies, gentlemen, and other Earthlings, there are many types of people out there that you can choose to fall in love with, but take it from me and fall in love with someone who loves going to concerts. I know you hear that and are thinking, "oh god, that'll be so expensive!" If you plan it out properly, it really won't be, especially if you're okay with having lawn or nosebleed seats. Trust me when I say the guy who loves going to concerts is the guy you want to date. Chances are if you date a guy like this, he'll have eclectic taste in music, and if he's anything like my boyfriend, it'll range from 1980s hair metal to 2010s alternative bands.
These guys are good to date for a number of reasons, one of them being that they are good at finances. If your concert-loving man can plan how to go to three concerts in a month and have money for possible hotel stays, band merchandise, and gas to get to the concert, plus how to survive for the rest of the month, then I think its safe to say he's good with money. In the long run this will be great for you, because he can help you learn to budget, or if he becomes a spouse, the two of you can budget together.
Another reason to date this kind of guy is the experiences you'll have with him. Concert guys don't mind taking a weekend off from work to drive to a concert that's five hours away. Just think: every month or so taking a little mini-vacation with him will not only be fun and filled with memories, but will also be helpful in the relationship. He will have done plenty of research on the town you'll be going to so he'll have other stuff planned for before or the day after the concert. You'll also have plenty of time to talk on the way to and from the event, and there's no better way to bond with someone than to pop in a CD and sing your heart out.
The third and, for me personally, the most important reason: concerts are amazing! By going to concerts with him you'll allow yourself to become more open to the band. Before dating my concert guy I wasn't a huge fan of Whitesnake, which is his favorite band, but I went with him to a concert anyway, and, hearing them live and raw, I fell in love with them as well, and I understand why he's so taken with them. Concerts can bring a deeper understanding of the bands and your guy. Plus, you'll always have a buddy to go with!
Ladies, gentlemen, and other Earthlings, I promise you dating a concert guy will be the best thing to ever happen to you, from memorable adventures to deep conversations and being able to financially plan a life. Concert guys are amazing and you need to date one now!
