I don't know what I'd do in that situation... But I wanted to say that not ALL women hate guitars...

My fiancee owns as many guitars as me! Her main guitar is a tele too ('69 thinline RI)! She's a guitar enabler I find, and at times almost dangerous to talk to about guitars. She has this way of convincing me to spend MORE on guitars.

For example, a few years ago, while searching for an acoustic in the $700-$900 range, she convinced me to go for the $2500 hand built guitar that has left me never wanting another acoustic again. I wanted a thin-line hollow body and was looking at some entry level Ibanez artcores - she convinces me to buy an actual Gibson ES-335. I wanted a small practice amp for use at home - thinking about a crate - she convinces me to go for an original 1966 fender vibrochamp... Now that we are engaged, she wants to buy me a '51 nocaster as an engagement gift...

If anything, we may get to the point where I need to hold her back with the guitar purchases!
