    Just broke up with girlfriend last week

    I had been dating this girl for about 9 months, everything was going great up until the last few months She was alway complaining how I didnt spend enough time with her and that I worry too much about the gym and eating and sleeping and everything else that goes along with it. Basically she was just mad that the gym and stuff always came before her. We had a big talk about a week ago and she said that it felt like the gym was more important to me than she was, I told her she was right, the gym is mor important, she flipped, it has been the most important and always will be. She kept asking me to take days off from the gym and shit so I got rid off her. I didnt really like seeing her cry but I cant have someone trying to get in the way of my shit, and what I love most. I actually feel releived that there isnt anymore nagging and shit, that shit was stressing me out. Everytime I try to make a girl my girl friend it ends up in a mess, they get so ****in' attached, it pisses me off, Im gonna just stick to botty calls from now on.

    I am confused when I see these kind of posts... How long do you freaking spend in the gym? This is not even an issue for me, and it shouldn't be one for anyone else. The gym takes up maybe 3 hours of my day, for morning cardio and lifting in the afternoon.

    Sure, the eating and diet can get in the way of doing certain things, but most certaintly they dont detract from being able to do what is important. How can you not have time to spend with her? Do you spend all day at the gym?

    We didnt get to see each other alot, I mean like everyday, which she would have liked, we saw eachother on the weekends and once or twice during the week for a couple hours. So if one of her day shifts got cancelled she would ask me to skip the gym, and get this, if one of her night shifts got cancelled she would ask me to skip work to hang out with her(I work afternoon shift). Give me a break, Ive been taking mon and thurs off from the gym for years and Ive been working afternoon shift for years, I love my schedule, and now all of a sudden somebody wants me to change what Im doing, if someone wants to come into my life they have to work around my schedule, if that sounds selfish, too bad, thats the way I work, I dont want to be know as a guy who lets a girl come in and take over my life and tell me what to do and shit, you catch my drift bro?

    Yea, in this case it seems she was asking you to give up more then what should be.

    You made your decision, gym over a partner which i think is rather immature but at least now you know as long as you go to the gym you might as well stay single.



    I think you need to find balance.

    men and women both have their issues.

    But hell for you to say that the gym is more improtant right to her face - means the relationshi wasn't right for you anyhow.

    The gym is important and a big part of your life - but wow if i was her that would be a kick in the face.

    If you really want a gf and cant fit the gym and a woman in at the same time - find someone at the gym.

    No it wasnt right, exactly, thats why I had to move on. Im a little stubborn, as you probably can tell, things gotta be my way or the hiway, I dont know if thats wrong or right but thats just the way I am. Funny thing though, I met her at the gym, lol.

    I dont know about immature bro, I did see her on the weekend and a couple times during the week but she wanted more, and like I said she was asking me to call in sick to work and skip the gym, that is immature if you ask me. Its a long story but here is the jist of it, when we first started dating we worked the excat same shift (Afternoon) so we hung out all day and there was no problem, then about 4-5 month into the relationship she switched jobs and started working a split shift, I was still working afternoons. She told me that we werent going to be able to see eachother as much because of her new hours. Fine thats ok we'll just have to get used to it, whatever. But then she started asking me to call in sick to my job and rearange my schedule, I dont know maybe Im a little to sellfish like I told mizfit, but whatever, thats the way it is. Either way, I have no problem finding girls so Im not worried, I just cant make them my girlfriend cuz it just wrecks everything.

    I think it's kind of rigid-minded to couch it in "either or" terms. Be resourceful and couch it for her in a more broad-minded way. This way you can get your cake and eat it too!

    If I start seeing a new girl I tell them right off the bat that I spend a decent amout of time in the gym/eating because thats my lifestyle and you are going to have to except that if you want things to work out. Never had a problem to date.

    After a few months of being together women always try to change me. If you ask me I think she was the selfish one. You think the way I do Testsubject, If a woman isn't happy with my job or my lifestyle then she isn't happy being with me. It doesn't make sense to be with someone that makes you un-happy.

    The truth is when women become un-happy they wan't to blame their boyfriends, they don't want to admit that some relationships just naturally dwindle and its time to move on. It's nobodies fault these things just happen.

    Ps: And yea, the crying is the worst part. It stays with you and makes you feel shitty for a while.

    Yeah I agree with that man, for sure. I dont know, she just seemed to almost be obsesed with me, she got WAY too attached n stuff, and I dont like that at all. Its almost like in order for her to be happy she had to be with me all the time, and if you cant be happy just being by yourself and happy with who you are then no one else is going to make u happy, Im not going to try to make someone happy who isny happy to begin with, you know, Im not going to go out of my way THAT much.

    I will take back immature because your right i don't know the entire story. When you say "she wanted me to take off from the gym" why don't you try and read it another way ? For example, this girl really likes me and wants to spend more time with me.

    Everyone is different i know so whatever the story may be i hope it works out for the best.
