My girlfriend is very hopeless romantic, that she even picked out a song for us. She chose a foreign song that she really liked on Spotify and claimed it to be “our song.” If I’m not mistaken it was La Vie En Rose or something like that. French lyrics and all. I admit the acoustic sounds nice. The strumming of the guitar, the voice of the singer, it sounds good. But it’s just too slow for me. Kind of too cheesy for my liking. Do I tell her that I don’t like “our song?” How do I even break it to her without hurting her feelings?

I'm sure she wouldn't take it to seriously, I think sometimes you need to try and not think to deep with these things.

How often does she play this song? You could simply go along with it, or even recommend another song that you like that reminds her of your brilliant relationship?

I'd suggest compiling a playlist of songs that you both like, that reminds you both of each other! Then even though that song you don't like is part of the playlist, it will still be full of other songs you like.

I really like what you said. It's just that if I tell her what I feel about her song choice, she might get offended. But yeah, thanks for your advice. I will definitely do that. Have a great one!
