I have graduated from sofa to computer desk, writing song lyrics... neither set of which are particularly favourable to the opposite sex!
motto being... never piss off a songwriter, cos it will be immortalised!

*sniggers lots*
A mate of mine had a fling while on a weekend away and felt really guilty about it, so he wrote a song as a way of "confessing" to his then girlfriend...
Didn't quite work... She just thought it was a really beautiful song and didn't realise it was based on actual events!
She never did find out about his dalliance... although she ended up suing him via the small claims court over a bloody 50 quid telly, so he paid a high price in the end, then being unable to get a mortgage with the woman he ended up marrying
lol.... oh people who know me know I write about real events and feelings!
really tough at one stage when my fellow songwriter became my ex boyfriend, and I was writing reams about how much he had hurt me...poor bloke had to put the words to music! We still do one of them these days, called "Crossed the Line"... and we laugh when we perform it!
These days, he looks at my words and goes "uh oh...would you like to talk?"....
Also quite embarrassing when one of my songs about how much I loved a certain someone, written when he was current, full of love and hope... keeps getting played on radio basingstoke! A bloke says, "is that about me?"... erm...ummm....ermm... NOPE!
All good fun!
