why is it so hard to find a girlfriend who trains jiu jitsu and surfs?

Don't shit where you eat.

^ This.

nothing hotter then a chick that can choke you out

Everyone at the gym was concerned about my boyfriend and I dating because they didn't want it to be weird. We hid it for a while but everyone is fine with it and it works for us. Basically the only fights we have had in the past year and a half were having to do with him not training enough and becoming lazy!

It is nice always having a training partner and coach in my corner at tournaments, especially for when Josh may have 10 people going. Plus my boyfriend knows my game and what I'm best at so he applies that when coaching me.

This. What happens when she gets stage 5 clinger and you aren't feeling her anymore and you still have to see her 4x times a week? Then she starts banging your friend that trains at the same place to make you jealous? It has the possibility to bring mad drama for you, your instructor and your team. I say if you surf together, call that a catch and be done with it because at least if you want to avoid being around her you have a whole ocean to surf on to avoid her while a Jiu Jitsu mat, not so much. I know if it were me I wouldn't want a boyfriend/girlfriend argument going while I am rolling, the whole daddy hit mommy at the dinner table vibe fucks everyone's game up. My wife hates Jiu Jitsu but accepts that I love it. I do everything in my power to maintain this balance because I need that me time. :)

But I know some other couples that successfully balance it and strengthen their relationships too. It all depends on the people. :)

Thats great it works for you two! Don't get me wrong I believe everyone should train Jiu Jitsu. Being married with 3 kids running amuck though, I cherish the moments I get away from the family. BUT if she were to truly want to train, I would encourage her completely. I just dont push it since its just a thought from time to time.

I just want to have sex at least one time in my life.
