View Full Version : Valentine's Day
Its that time of year again when I'm reminded most of what lonliness is. The whole concept of this day makes no sense. Am I not llike everyone else or do I just not care? Is there someone out there that understands and appreciates me? Is this person already there and I don't even know it? I really dread this day. One thing is for certain though...I got a date with the iron.

Considering I've never had anyone care for me ever before this day makes me always feel like shit. I bet if there was someone there for me then I could feel great, but not yet.
Date with the iron... yea.
date w/ iron, classes, then work.....hot damn that sounds like a good day.

look on the bright side, the more love you show the iron, it will love you back. unlike some of the women folk in this world
Valentine's day is either 1. a scam from Hallmark or 2. a day that couples wanted to make singles feel like shit
oh well, I'll go on with the day just like the other 364...

not to offend anyone, but y'all got the wrong attitude. Yeah, Vday is a day for couples to go on a date, spend too much money on each other, go home and get busy. If you're single, fuck it its just a wednesday. But, if the thought of other people having a special day makes you upset or depressed, then maybe its time you did something to fix it. Just like with working out, if you sit all day and dream about being ripped, or dream about benching 400+ and then get depressed and think, shit I'll never get that. you should know you gotta put the time in to diet, to log your workouts, to put weight on slowly and steady. It must be methodical, and you will always have good days and bad days. This applies to EVERYTHING else in life, including dating. Maybe its not that nobody likes you, but maybe you just don't have the right information about how to attract women to you. Just like the kid half-squatting 315. Maybe he just hasn't yet learned that a squat has to be parallel. So, he researches, finds out how to do it right, then spends the time and energy on building his numbers properly. Same thing with women, man. I can recomend one name: John Alanis. Google him this guy makes systems and procedures on how to attract women, and how to keep them. He's a genius. Just remember, attitude is half of it even if you have all the greatest intensity techniques, pro workouts memorized, but you don't have the mental mindset that you WILL complete your next set, just learning how to attract women isn't enough, you must do.
I've applied what I've learned from lifting, about attitude, knoledge, perserverance, patientce and applied it to everything in life from money, women, buisness, and I'm beginning to see great deals of sucess come my way. Hope I didn't go off on too much of a tangent or anything, but trust me fellas check out JOHN ALANIS and take his advice. He's the animalpak.com of getting chicks.
this is my first year alone on Valentine's day, and its also the first valentine's day that i'll be in the gym. i always worked my schedule around it, because of the (ex) girl 'wanting me to take her out'. im happy i'll be there this year. i cant remember what Animalpak writer said it, or what article it was in, but...
"I look back on the previous year and think about how much of a pussy I was back then."
the fact that i'll be there wednesday, training shoulders, gives me a sense of purpose and comitment in what im doing, alot like in a relationship. except i know that the iron will always be there, no matter what. I'm not putting down anyone going out on that day, or calling them less of a man, but to each his own.

Who gives a fuck. Honestly Bitches come and go. Confidence is key to attract girls. Personally if a girl isnt interested in what I do than fuck her. I need a chick that understands what I do, and why I do it.

Valentines day is a cool day and all. I mean for people who have dates and are a couple confuckingratulations, I got nuthing against them. But it does suck when everyone is going out and shit and your all alone. I am used to being lonely its apart of the lifestyle many ppl just dont like us. Like everyone else I got a date with iron baby. Strength and Honor and happy vday to all the couples out there.

me and my gal are on our 17th V day this wednesday. she's a good one and i'm glad i snagged her. rolling over to a restaurant called " glutton's" for one of the best steaks in the state....after the afternoon shoulder workout, of course.....
Well its gonna be a cool week for me. I'm goin over to a friend's house to hang out and watch movies and we're gonna go out and eat too. I'm just sayin' in such a superficial society its hard to find someone.
dont worry guysyou will someday find a woman who understands you! it just takes time! You just need to find someone who has the same passion for lifting that you do or for fitness! Iam a woman and I love bodybuilders and i know to be with them you have to support what they do 100%! You can not have a killer body without alot of work! If they dont support you they really dont care about you so there not fucking worth being with!!!

Okay. I don't know what the Hell to do now. Whats goin' down this week is gonna be somethin' I didn't expect. Another person is in the picture too. I don't know what to do. Two people I like. Its too much for me to handle. You think I should just bail on this and stick with the iron?

yea dude, i think you should stick to the iron
i cant think of anything else to do myself, dont got a girlfriend or anythin
who knows, its in the middle of the week, maybe someone lonley i know will pop up, its possible, i dont know, it just makes me unhappy kinda like some of you other guys, all the more reason to take your anger out on the god damn iron though
I need a chick that understands what I do, and why I do it.
As one who does have a girlfriend who not only understand what I do and why I do it but also supports me, I can personally tell you that it does make this game so much easier. Same goes with your friends and family, but don't ever make lifting more important than them, cuz your friends and family are the most important things in life.

People will let me down and there ain't much else place to turn. I mean what is one supposed to do when you don't have "friends" or family supporting you? I have a father who opposes bodybuilding, a mother who says, "I'll love me no matter what you look like.", and "friends" who can really care less. Of course I hold these people close to me, but it seems that I am the only one I can depend on. And to find that special someone in all this mess...it ain't easy.

I know how hard it can be to find that right girl, you don't even wanna know how many times I got played cuz I was just "being a nice guy" and as that Green Day song goes, "nice guys finish last." Hope you can sway your fathers opinion, all moms all like that, and unless you're one of us, most people really couldn't care less.

great post..this guy is right here..if you want something, you need to do something about it..you cant expect that a girl is just going to fall into your lap..you need to do the work..guys its okay to go out every once in a while..its called socializing..you dont need to drink either, but just go out! thats where all the girls are..sad to say, you prally won't meet your future gf in the gym..thats just not realistic..so go out and have some fun and dont feel bad for yourselves..you all bust ass in the gym im sure, so use this confidence and hard work and apply it to another area of your lives..lata bros

And I'm just saying its a journey finding that ONE. Of course I can go out and spit game with every chick, but is she that one? Is she gonna understand who I am and what I do? And how long 'til she can't stand me anymore and discard me like trash? Then when you think you've found someone again, you're afraid to open your mouth and jeopardize your friendship.

If you don't have a gf then who cares about Vday? It's not a day to think of all the people who care for you, it's just a day for couples to enjoy each other's company and go out of their way to show their love or whatever they have for each other. It's not a day to make "singles" feel bad, and it's just another day for me, because I could give a less shit.
I see I have my pic of men here because I am the opposite of most of you...I need a MAN who understands me and my lifestyle. Bodybuilding and me go hand in hand..you can't have one without the other. So, I am taking bids starting now! LOL..seriously..I am considering..wanna throw a name into a hat? LOL...I wish!

To the OP: your only 18. you dont know relationships yet. Give it time.
I've been married almost 6 years.....v-day is just another day. now it is anyway.
For those of you that refer to women as "bitches". Get off your high horse and get a life.
And to those of you that complain about being lonely...you make a conscious descision to go to the gym and improve.
Your current position in life is because of a conscious desision you have made. If you are tired of being lonely....do something about it. Girls arent scarry. Just be nice to them. You'll be surprised at how far you get.

Man, I haven't seen my baby in three weeks, and finally get to see her on V-Day so it means something extra to me.
...I got a date with the iron.
…Anything better then that Bro?
My girl and I just split because she couldn't understand my training. 6 years in and she calls it quits. Funny enough she said I acted like an "animal".
I have plans on hitting the iron for V-Day. BUT, I also have another plan in mind. A girl I have been eyeing at the gym finally came up to me to talk to me the other day. Funny enough, she hits the weights, she isn't just a cardio queen. We only spoke for a few minutes so I don't have the full scoop on her. I figure if she hits the gym on V-Day then my chances are good as to her not having a boyfriend. So I make my move then.
this day can be a bitch..but lets look at something bro....we train to feel better about our lives...out health..and when others see this...we are more attractive to them...because we care about our health...so..keep to the gym...and when you dont look for the love...sometimes it finds you. Never be desparate...just aware.....you hang in bro.....never give up...

For me it was good when I was young. My mom was always nice and bought me stuff. Now that I'm older and married it's more of an excuse to get out on a date. My kids are young still so any chance I have to go on a date just feels nice and if it's an excuse for some action than even better.
The day as a whole however is still sort of lame.

I dunno man, I think that's something that you have to figure out for yourself. I mean, the decision to go with either your gut or your heart is the type of decision that only you and you alone can make.
I can give you some advice though, based on my personal experience. For one thing, I've always found that the pain of rejection is ultimately easier to deal with in the long term than wondering what might have been. I mean, it's better to take the risk (facing possible rejection) and to know for sure than it is to do nothing and wonder what could be, or what might or might not have been. That's another thing too, you'll never know for sure unless you try, and you may be surprised (in a good way) by the response you get. The only other advice that I can give you is to stay positive, because you never know what might happen, and if you expect failure than that is likely what you will do, fail.
Anyway, I hope that this helps in some way, and good luck with whatever you choose to do.
I am married ,but I will be cheating with the iron. My first day back from my pulled muscle. I am going to war brothers and sisters and you are gonna hear it all over the globe.

I've found this to also be the opposite. People will let me down and there ain't much else place to turn. I mean what is one supposed to do when you don't have "friends" or family supporting you? I have a father who opposes bodybuilding, a mother who says, "I'll love me no matter what you look like.", and "friends" who can really care less.

We dont do anything special on vday he gym,s in the morning and I in the evening and on weekends we go at it together well after all the happy hormones everyday is vday. Oh yeah !!

My wife hates Vday, so we don't even celebrate it, so my date today is with the iron too. I think it's a made up holiday by hallmark just like the other days(boss's day, secretary's day, etc.). My wife and I love each other and do stuff for each other year round not one day a year. Took me a long time to find this one and she is a keeper, so don't worry single brothers in Iron, she is out there and you will find her, probably when you least expect it.
Wanna hear something funny? My first year in premed, i didnt know a lot of stuff about valentine, and i coincidentally wore a red shirt! Man, i took so much stick from the guys on campus that i never wore the shirt again!
Anyway, never spent the day as it's 'supposed' to. But like many here, I have a date with iron, and then i'm putting my khakis and motorhead t and going to class.lol

first year I'm single on valentine's day in a while, woulda still been w/ my ex if she had learned to accept that my #1 priority in life is my battle w/ the weights. she just couldn't take me basing my life around training and eating, and coming home early enough to get enough sleep to do it all over again.
I think many of us are going through what you are..including myself. My husband just doesn't get it...the lifestyle..yet I met him in the gym...he was in incredible shape, took pride in his physique, carried himself well and was into lifting bigtime. Now, well...I have mentioned before my situation...its not good. He says I am obsessed, never encourages me or tells me I look great. I get more compliments here from you guys than from my husband, but I let it slide because this is who I am and this is a huge part of my life.
I think he feels he is in competition with my training. Perhaps they all feel that way..time we spend training is time not spent with them or maybe time we would rather spend in the gym insults our other half...because to them we may be choosing which we prefer to be with as opposed to balancing it out somehow...balancing meaning to their benefit..not ours.
It is a double edged sword. We must do what is best for us in the long run.
My wife and I had been dating a few months when she asked me to skip the gym to go do something with her. My response was something like "the gym was with me before you where and if you keep this up it will be here after you are gone." She realized how much it meant to me. She never asked me to skip the gym again. After a while I realized how much she meant to me.
Here comes the advice part. If you find a good one you have to be good to her also. I have learned that it is ok to take a week of rest and take your lady on a nice vacation. If you know there is something that she really wants to do adjust your schedule so you can take her. My wife supports everything I do and every once in while you have to show her that I still care. If she gives you her support suck it up every once in a while and give something back.

Date with the iron...hell yea!! Just so happens Valentines Day happens to be leg day.. Hmm O well I know squats will do me right.
Who gives a fuck about valentines day. I have this girl I am seeing and she isn't getting shit. I don't believe in that until someone gets married. The truth is your girlfriend might be someone elses next year so why bother. Also, remember that the weights/iron don't nag at you and cheat on you. The iron is the only loyal thing I have left besides friends/ family/ and the forum brothers. later

Hey Valentines day is great when you live the life style that we do. I mean honestly look at it this way if we have a date with the iron it will be the first time we want our date to be as heavy as possible. Hell the bigger the better. So treat you dates well guys, or they will def fucking crush you.

Let me tell you I am in the same boat. IA finally got a small compliment I guess my wife ask me if steroids were in my shake ha ha ha is that a compliment or a not? Any way she ask me for advice as well because she knows I am trying to become a fitness trainer but I think that is to see if I am serious I helped her loose like 5 pounds in like 2 months on what I call the homer jay simpson second fitness plan ha ha ha lol. true toni we all love the way you look though keep it up and keep posting those pictures ha ha ;)

This coming from a person who is crazy in love and getting married in July should ring true to everyone here who is depressed for having nobody to celebrate with. I do. And will not. I buy him presents all the time, and he does the same for me - because we want to. No gifts today, just because "we're supposed to". Tonight, we'll just be eating fruit salad, watching a movie and making love - WHICH WE DO EVERY SINGLE DAY, belive it or not, and we both TRAIN every day too!
This is a retarded holiday and you single people shouldn't let it get to you. When you find someone good, you won't care what damn day it is!

There's an old saying...
W8's B4 D8's
I have to make an exception on Valentine's Day though. Women like to feel special and if a few flowers, a card, and a nice dinner is gonna make life easier & everyone happy... I'm in.
Happy Valentine's Day to all the ladies here.
ya don't wanna cheat on your woman on Valentine's Day...

Already had my date with the Iron this morning and it was great.
Okay. Today wasnt so bad. I gave in a little bit and I handed roses to all the girls in my class and I got alot of attention from this one chick for some reason. Of all days she chose this one. Wierd. I'm gonin' out to dinner with a good friend of mine later, but right now I got that date...I ain't about to stand up the iron.
Yeah, I'll be in the gym V-Day while my training partner takes his girl out. That's cool, I'll just do moves that don't need a spotter....
i feel you man. today (valentine's day) was shoulders, so i lucked out by not needing a spot in anything. My boy's just lucky it wasn't leg day.

I was going to ask this chick at my gym out for valentines day. I did not get the chance to, however I realize one thing I live and breathe this sport so much that if a girl isnt as dedicated as me in this sport, she is dead weight. I'm just not the kind of guy who has a split personality. Mr. smooth over here, and then animal over there. as wrath puts it. when you get me you get all of me.

I had my date with the iron this afternoon. It was sweet traveling through an ice storm to get there. However the rest of the day is sweet, celebrated our 10th valentines day together, and it was my daughter's 4th birthday.
Just a bit of advice from an older brother here, dont fret the vday stuff, it all comes around in the end
much love to all ! my day got ruined by the giant snow storm in the eastern us! iam glad today was rest day i heard my gym was closed! anyway i did post on this one before but i just wanted to send my love to you all and when the right one comes along you will know it!
Its that time of year again when I'm reminded most of what lonliness is. The whole concept of this day makes no sense. Am I not llike everyone else or do I just not care? Is there someone out there that understands and appreciates me? Is this person already there and I don't even know it? I really dread this day. One thing is for certain though...I got a date with the iron.
V-day!
Mine...snowing with ice in Philly, PA...shoveld the drive-walk...went to work,worked a sollid 8 hours...came home ate (had 6 meals in already) shoveled again...went to the gym, hammered legs A L O N E !
My buddy took his wife out for a romantic V-day dinner...hey nothing wrong with wine-dine...BUT HE IS 12 WEEKS OUT FROM A BODYBUILDING SHOW...I left him a phone message, "Hey before you have you night out on the town, get your damn cardio and weight training in and make sure you eat all of your meals, and don't go off my nutrition plan for your V-day dinner...Or if you do, you will ALWAYS have that 3rd place trophy to look at instead of the 1st place!"

Bro, I hear ya! I hit the iron ALONE too. V-Day-big friggin' deal!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, I know, its over, but it was a weird night. I went to dinner with my friend and we went for a long walk by the beach afterward. My friend end up callin' me up after she dropped me off and confessed her feelings for me and now I just don't know what to do or think (or feel!). Today she didn't even talk to me much and kind of avoided me. Shit. Good thing I got the iron. I just needed to get that off my chest.
Yo, any of you vets got msn messenger? I could sure use your wisdom to guide my path.
