it burns priest it burns. Spent 35 minutes in the home torture chamber. I made it to 10 minutes on the Helix HLT 3500 3D lateral trainer on intervals before my legs were burning. HR was 138. Then I did 2 rotations of upper body weight lifting on the Hoist 210 gym.

What. The. Fuck. I get that this bike isn't high end, but the dropouts are only 92mm wide. :rofl:

I spent at least 5 minutes trying to get the front wheel to fit.

Oof. Sorry to hear, I hope it works out dude.
Thanks. It will probably work out since this seems to be somewhat cyclical. I don’t think she’s the kind of person to end a relationship by ghosting someone. Gets pretty frustrating at times because she’ll let me get closer then “push me away”. I’d be inclined to give up if it weren’t for the fact that I have never experienced a deeper connection with anyone else. Not even with people that I have known for years or decades.

question - how far away from you does she live? sometimes the distance can be a factor.

She told me some jaw dropping personal stuff that she has never told anyone else. I was blown away both in context and the fact she felt comfortable enough with me to share it. Maybe that made her a little nervous afterwards ?

It's 10:00, where the fuck is my boss? Literally nobody here and he was supposed to tell me what I'm doing for the next 6 weeks in his absence.

I already went to New Seasons and got the wife's groceries. I'm about to go to PetSmart to get the dog and cat foods. Only thing left is to drop the present off at my boys place. That's my whole agenda.

Could be a simple explanation to all this; girls are weird!

That doesn't help this situation, but it's true :rofl:

Give her time and trust your gut. Eat bacon. Enjoy life.

Yeah, that’s usually the correct explanation.

After a few days of ignored texts I asked her if she was okay and she basically said she was busy and tired. Sent another message the following day with no reply. Decided to give her space and let her text me.

And pancakes, lots of pancakes.

You’re boss isn’t here because you’re in the wrong GMT. :D

This is now the romance advice for Type 2 Fun weirdo’s thread.

Nothing that I’m aware of. We both had a great time. Gone from texting nearly every day to radio silence. Makes this monkey very sad.

This needs to be asked at this point; you did wore pants for your date?

Oh shit, now that I think about it, I may have worn pants. It was a bit chilly and rainy that night. You think she was mad that she couldn’t see my Hanz und Franz calves ? Damnit, never should have packed a pair of pants. I knew better.

Took the bus to the dentist. And yes I did see the strange number calling me. I took the elevator up to the dentist's office for my appointment to be met with. Oh, Mr Jdcamb your appointment is cancelled. We are so sorry. I had waited for 4 months for that appointment. I am feeling they should pay me for riding the bus there. I camped out there for a few hours and read some magazines until I felt like going home. It is these unique situations you need to ask yourself, what would George Costanza do?
