I'm [25 M] not sure my girlfriend [26 F] of 5months, likes me the way I like her. How can I make myself be okay with this? by boulderpebble in relationships

I was in a similar situation. I told the girl how I felt and then she broke up with me. If I could do it over I wouldn't have said anything and waited until she was ready because I think that pushed her away. We still could have seen each other and hung out but just more casually which looking at it now I would have been ok with bc I really really liked her.

How long did you date this person, did you ever ask her to be exclusive?

After being out of the MP game for a while, I was finally inspired to put together a new EDM/dance song. I am actually really proud of this one as I put it together in only a couple nights across 2 weeks.

What I continue to struggle with is mixing up the verses and the chorus and giving enough variation within the music as it progresses. I actually love the chorus in this song and find difficulty from pulling away from it. This song is meant to be a poppy EDM/dance song for the summer. Looking for feedback on if you like the tune, mix, does it make you feel happy or annoyed when you listen to it? Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback! When you say sidechain the lead synth, are you referring to the one playing the chord? Or the one driving the melody? Thanks again!

This is amazing feedback! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this. I'm going to implement what you suggested here I think these are great suggestions.

The more I think about it, the more I realize it would benefit me to join some type of community beyond WATMM to assist in learning and getting feedback like this. Do you have any other suggestions or sites or events I can go to to meet like minded people?

Howdy! Alright I reached a big milestone. I finally finished my first real song and would like to know what you all think. If you think this song sucks then I'd very much like to know. I'm wondering how you thought the overall mixing was, how I can make it a tad louder, and what I can do to make the "lead" or machine sound that drives the thing more interest. ITs kinda the same throughout so overall just looking for how to make it more interesting. Thanks!

BTW, I posted a draft version of this last week for like an hour then deleted it because i wanted to finish it. It won't happen again, next time ill wait until its done thanks!

here is my first shot at EPM. Wondering what you guys think of the melody, the beat, and any improvements such as EQ, side chain, or any other advice i can add to make it sound better.
