No new team, just an equal hatred for every team. - I've also got a forward thinking ponzi scheme with @ramssuperbowl99 and @jrry32. - In addition, @Nick_gb is leading a prayer meeting to make me the next EVP of Football Operations for the Texans. (I think we settled on "Pray Away the Easterbay" right?) - Finally, @Forge and I are going to ask Jeff Bezos for $10B so we can buy the Texans (otherwise known as "The Brooks Hadley memorial football team" plan). So, I really have a lot on my plate. No time to like a team, but plenty of time to hate every team. I may not even watch football anymore...

AFlaccoSeagulls Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Over the past year or so my Fiancee switched careers into personal training, and now her entire personality is just lifting weights and talking about lifting weights/working out, and I hate it. I literally can't talk to her about anything else because she's only concerned about how her lifts went, her macros, how hungry she is, her clients' training sessions, etc. etc. and I couldn't care less about all of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have her start lifting you as a weight so the two of you have some common ground again. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe she needs to go to a new setting that fitness is not priority #1 so that she can actually figure something else to focus on. "lets agree to not go on IG while we are on this trip". get that woman off social media for a few days. 5 hours ago, AFlaccoSeagulls said: Fiancee oooofffff One of my good girlfriends in college went from a snowboarder/surfer/skater/stoner chick to personal trainer/life coach/motivational facebook poster and I had to unfriend her/never talk to her again lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've kinda let my career consume me a little bit, in that, I work on stuff on the weekends. I like to talk about. It's interesting work, but not 24/7. Also started lifting and cardio at the gym. This helps me balance out work. Also helps me not be fat lol. Maybe try to introduce a hobby you both could enjoy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've taken COVID protocols seriously and we're lucky it hasn't completely destroyed our relationship in the process. 5 hours ago, twslhs20 said: I've kinda let my career consume me a little bit, in that, I work on stuff on the weekends.

MWil23 Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 @AFlaccoSeagulls I wouldn’t be surprised if this was a major way of her dealing with Covid and the other fallout...throw herself into a passion and newfound interest. It’s probably obnoxious, but if I had to bet purely as an outsider, that’s my guess. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I threw myself into my work, and joined a gym. I'm not comfortable going a ton of places, and I don't know anyone. So this was my strategy to get me through. It's worked so far, but t has been tough mentally. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
