Why?

[teddybears4ever2]

My husband is a musician. He plays at a lot of bars. Many times there are girls crowding him on the stage. These girls seem to be obsessed with him. Many times they will do something stupid and he'll either start talking about me or I'll come up to him. I have never seen people run as fast as they do when they realize that he is taken.
My husband is not the best looking person in the world. So I think these girls are excited about the fact that he is a musician.

Oh the memories.  Dated a man who was the front man for a band back in the late 80's ----- one of those "hair bands" that were popular back then.  Women everywhere and brazen as all get out.  That was back in my cute days when I "worked" it as well as anyone and I'd plant myself in the front and he'd tell people he was my boyfriend . . .  didn't matter.  Women love the confidence and talent it takes to be a musician and it goes with the territory.  The part that got me was that these were his FANS!  He had to be nice to them and so did I.  Whew----------- that was hard work!  

Anyway, you do have to have a bit of a thick skin to date someone in a band/ musician.

You're right. I'm currently dating a man who moonlights as a musician (drummer) in a band. He isn't even the focal member in the group... it's just that he's in the group... and he gets attention. At times, that attention goes overboard and that can be a big ego booster for any man... especially, for a 57 year old man!
