So my SO and I are currently on a road trip. Having an honestly wonderful time when out of no where he's like 'please go back to the gym after you have our baby.' Like wtf!!!!!! Yeah I use to work out everyday and was in super good shape and all this but jesus. I don't think he meant to say it like that but it was totally out of the blue and caught me off guard. Ass
Re: Jerk!!!
I think @JStill0603 is right, guys sometimes don't really "get it" until the baby is actually here. Hopefully your guy will realize that that was really insensitive and won't make any more comments like that!
I'm hoping he meant it the way @FilbertTree said it!
*This doesn't condone partners being assholes to you guys and insisting you work out. Just made me a little nostalgic and thought I'd share some of my fond work out memories.
This is exactly what I told my husband as far as us going to the gym together. And also when I said I was going to try and work out a bunch while he is gone for a month and a half and he said something about me going to the gym. I don't think he necessarily fully realizes how different our life is going to be once baby is here. He will literally always be here, so doing things that can't include baby are a bit more problematic. Especially since I know I won't trust anyone watching him, haha.
I have no issues with wanting to be healthy, or even wanting your partner or family to be healthier by eating right and working out. But the idea of forcing your body to an unnatural shape to make someone else happy is just sick.
