Reply With QuoteFUCK HIM!!!!!
You are chosing a lifestyle.... Not just some silly plans for the evening...
If you schluff off the WO for this... whats next?
Stick to your guns baby!!!
You must make him understand this is a way of life for you...
and then if he doesn't apologize in earnest, he's a selfish prick, dump him completely,
because this will only be the tip of the iceberg!
(Oh, and I've been there more than once)
If he understands he will be truly sorry...
And if it were me, and I really cared, I would send flowers as a solid

Your gym time and friends, family, bf/gf, wife, kids . . . .
I am sure this subject has been talked about before but last night it was brought to my attention. Ok, this guy I have only dated a handful of times asked me to go out and I told him maybe, I have things to do, PLUS the weather was horrible. I always workout in the evenings no matter what, Gym time is MY time and I dont change it for anyone. I don't see the need to party/drink during the week, unless its a special occasion like a work-related event or the . . . World Series. Anyways I have explained this to him and everyone around me and I thought he would respect it but NO, NO, NO he sends me this nasty text message and I now I feel bad! Am I really selfish or what?

I think you answered your own question. I work out alone 3-4 times a week plus one or two extra times at Bally's so that I can train with my wife. No big deal but it is time consuming.

I am not even going to think about him anymore, we only dated a few times, we didn't even KISS!!! (i am a prude!!!) The fact that he actually said something hurt my feelings, thats why I started thinking I was selfish, but really F-him! I will never see him again anyways.

and another thing I have been working out since 2000 and I have yet to find a gym partner, I want one sometimes! But my friends don't workout and my ex never did. I wish I can find someone to hit the gym with me every now and then, everyone on this board is helpful but I cant take you guys to the gym!

I hate it when people ask you to be their "gym partner" and they get upset when you say no!

Although I don't recommend going to gym just to look for a date or lover, etc. But I do think you will find a lot of dedicated guys that enjoy working out, discussing nutrition and whatnot. At least you will have that in common. The guy you are talking about doesn't seem to give a damn about your interests at all...so I vote GET RID OF HIM. Originally Posted by BigDyl

He has no right to send you a nasty text message just because you aren't available to date for one damned night, IMO. How about there is always tomorow or another day? Seriously.
My social life is very limited because of gym time, and I try to avoid eating out when I do go out unless its really a somewhat rare occasion.

You aren't being selfish at all. I am the same way sometimes. For example, I just starting bulking again and wanted this bulk to be more serious than my last one. I partially blame my girlfriend for ruining the last month + of my cut since I lost strictness when dating her (missing workouts, eating poorly, etc.). Either way, it doesn't matter to me too much, as I am definately not fat, and she gave me the ok to stop cutting and start bulking (I asked her what she'd like more). BUT, she still likes to come over right after my last class (6:30pm), which is when I usually work out after I eat. Sometimes I will tell her to either come later (which a lot of times she can't, or chooses not too because it's too late) OR, I will choose to workout earlier in the day BEFORE my later classes so we can hang out.. still not missing the workouts though.

Also, thought I should add.. if he is actually mad about "YOU" (I say this because your habits make you who you are) this early in the relationship, then you can already tell this is not the guy you want to be with. Understanding and putting up with someone's weird quirks and habits are very important in any relationship. And if he doesn't have the balls to complain in person and does it through text message... 'nuff said.

Sorry for posting again, but another thought... I had recently said I wouldn't date a girl who didn't work out as much as I did because she could never understand my "weird health quirks" (workout routine, eating habit and diet, etc.)... but I actually happen to be dating a girl who doesn't fit that criteria. However, we are close because she knows about these quirks and is totally cool with it. She has also tried to adapt to better suit my way of living, by not eating out as much and settling for my home cooked meals. Find someone who will at least do that much for you.

I might be getting transferred to Houston, if I end up there I'll hit the gym with ya. Plus I won't know anyone there so it would be cool to have someone help out with that. This will be my 5th city in 6yrs so it gets old trying to find friends.
