Hmm, hmm... bitterness? You might have misread the room there. 😕

Fair enough—let me play devil's advocate for a second. That kind of identity-shifting based on a partner seems more like teenage behavior to me. Once you hit your 20s, most of us have developed actual personalities—it’s unlikely we’d overhaul our entire sense of self (even something as trivial as music) just to please someone. Besides, looking at my own life, some of my favorite bands exist in my library specifically because a girlfriend introduced them to me. If a relationship is actually healthy, it should involve a little bit of mutual influence... 🙂
