adventurechick 0 #1 April 23, 2006 As I was hanging out at a party tonight, a few guys asked me about my new love, skydiving. All of them told me they would be too scared to ever try it and how crazy I am to jump every week. Some then proceeded to give me their number...ect. I think they are too much of a wuss for me to ever date.... have you encountered this before?? Could you go on a date with someone who is too scared of extreme sports and is not willing to give it a chance?? I tried to convince them to go shark diving with me after they turned me down for skydiving... that didn't work out so well either.... what happened to the wild and crazy twenty year olds!! Sissies I tell ya! PMS #449 TPM #80 Muff Brother #3860 SCR #14705 Dirty Sanchez #233 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawkins121 0 #2 April 23, 2006 Better off asking this in the women's forum... I date a whuffo mostly because I'm not a fag... Its pretty tough to find a skydiving girlfriend... The thought is nice but for most its just not realistic. Whats the ratio in the sport? 5-1 guys to girls? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FIREFLYR 0 #3 April 23, 2006 um, take it to the womans forum... Skydiving isn't for everyone. Not jumping out of an airplane doesn't make you a wuss.life is a daring adventure all by itself. if anything I don't even think of skydiving as "extreme" I was just lucky enough to be introduced to it. lighten up. in the end I would be more impressed with a woman that coud handle my lifestyle and not be involved than with a woman who skydived/BASE jumped. Good luck, Have fun ~J"One flew East,and one flew West..............one flew over the cuckoo's nest" "There's absolutely no excuse for the way I'm about to act" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NlghtJumper 0 #4 April 23, 2006 I date whuffos, but only ones with interest. Like my girlfriend now, we have been dating for one month now and she feels she is ready to complete a Tandem in May. Most of my ex's were the same way.

As has been said quite a few times, how you are treated and cared for is where you should be concerned. The man could be a whuffo and treat you like a princess...who cares if he jumps or not. Or he could be a skydiver and treat you like shit...they why would you want to be with him? Or you could find your gem like I did and get a skydiver who treats you like a princess...and then you have it the best. A sport should not be the concern in whether you end up with a person or not. What should be the concern is who that person is inside and how they treat you and others.Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably.

I think you are a bit ahead of yourself at this point of time. Besides, if you are so shallow that you can not date someone who does not do an 'extreme' sport, if you ever break your bag or shatter your pelvis or any other horrible thing that happens to alot of people in this sport, you will end up one very lonely girl who will have to learn how to 'extreme' walk on her own. I have a partner of three years that does not jump, Some days i wish she did but if she jumped, that would cut my jumping in half. I know my partner is there for me and she would be there for me if i hurt myself as well. You want to go and 'date' skydivers, what if you get injured and then you are not a skydiver anymore and he does not want you because you are not 'extreme'? Don't be so shallow, you are still a student, so far to go before this becomes your life. Wait until you have sold your car, sold your house, sold your soul to the turbine god and then worry about dating a whuffo. Besides, if dating a whuffo is such a big deal, why are you not at the dropzone right now jumping? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites adventurechick 0 #20 April 23, 2006 Well, I did sell my car to do AFF.... I know skydiving is one of many sports I do and hope to have many more in life... but I know many guys are threatened by a girl who likes to do "extreme sports" like shark dives, skydiving, bunjee jumping, ect.... As a guy... if you weren't a skydiver, would you feel weird if your gal did many crazy things and you didn't? That's where I was trying to get with this. I know many guys at least in college here have the mentality "I need to be the big, tough, bf... and my gal can be the scaredy cat."
