No offense. You seem to have a strong grasp upon what makes women tick. You’re lucky to have such insight. I’m glad you’ve said many of the things you have said. Your wife must be a happy woman.

I am absolutely positive that if your significant other were to actually act in the ways many of you claim you want to be treated, you would dump him immediately for being a pussy and then laugh at him to your friends. Wait, you all want the nice guy who listens to your feelings too?
Women love to hear their wildest dreams but despise actually receiving them.

LOL, reminds me of a girl on another board who complained: “why can’t I find a nice guy?”
The response she got was: “Because you’ld dump him in 2 weeks for a guy with more ‘edge’!”

In my experience, many women say one thing and say something else with their body-language (which you are expected to pick up on but don’t). As such I don’t trust women to comment 100% truly/accurately on what they feel or think.
TO THE OP, you’re not an asshole, but watch out - women can play wierd manipulative mind games. Maybe this client really needed YOUR help, maybe she didn’t.
Women can squirm their way in without you even knowing what’s going on & just wait for that one moment of weakness. Your wife will be much more aware of this than you are which is why she’s getting upset about it. It’s like when a guy starts going to work trying to nab your wife/girlfriend - it can be obvious to you but not to her. Same thing but in reverse.

Great post, T-ha.
But it should be noted (I had written this many pages ago) that I called
her back when she answered semi-hysterical. She did not ask me to come over. She had to hang up becuase she was incoherent. I thought it was the right thing to see what was up.

The same thing occurs within gender groups too - guys who use alot of the emotional parts of their brains (often artists, writers, drunks, etc.) will find the guys at the other extreme (often accountants, engineers, etc.) to be emotionless & overly logical. The sweet-point is somewhere in between (successful but popular, good business mind etc.). [/quote]
Ooooh, I’ve got a sweet one then. I’m married to a logical, practical engineer and business owner who cries when he watches Old Yeller and is a party-going drunk. OK, I’m kidding on the drunk part, but he does like his Manhattans.

This is a good observation. Some women thrive on attention from men even when they’re not remotely interested in the men they’re seeking attention from. It’s quite comical to watch when the men play along … or fall right into it like silly putty.
Your wheels(calves in particular) are the trainwreck. I’d do 3,000 - 5,000 calve raises a week if I were you. I don’t have that problem and I still do them.[/quote]
So, I put up three pics ('cause you seemed to be asking for them) one of me doing a Rolling Thunder grip exercise, one deadlifting (with a much weaker friend) the front of a car that weighs 2,500 lbs and a pic of me throwing the hammer in a Highland Games comp. and you rip on my calves?
Way to ignore the important parts of the pictures.
My quads have suffered due to my focus on throwing and away from squatting and I train for performance, not calf symetry.
Maybe I’ll start bodybuilding again so I can have calves like yours!
By the way, telling someone if they ever come down to your gym you’d kick thier ass is rather juvenile don’t you think?

That Wang is a classic. I haven’t seen one that big since 1978. Damn!!

Yah, he’s got it going on. It seems his grasp of women and yours of reality are about even.
But remember, he’s married. You can’t call him if you are in a bind. Too much respect, ya know.

You’re absolutely right. Yes, the ‘think of it in reverse’ example is right on the nose.

I don’t usually get into my personal life but…
I was out getting my wife cookies and chips (don’t ask) and was returning a call from a female client (of over two years) about her training schedule. When she answered, she was hysterical. The police had just left her house because she was the victim of a home invasion. She had come home to a broken back door and a pryed-open window.
Since I was literally one minute from her house, I decided to stop by and see if she was ok. She lives alone with her 5 y/o daughter.
I called my wife to tell her what I wanted to do before I turned the corner to her house.
I went there, affirmed what the police told her, that it was probably just some kid and he got scared off by the house alarm and nothing was stolen. I left and went to get my wife her “snacks” Now, we aren’t speaking and she thinks I don’t care about how she feels.
My thoughts are that if SHE lived alone, I would want someone she trusted to stop by and see if she was alright.
My wife explained that I wasn’t this woman’s boyfriend, I wasn’t her husband, I’m just her trainer and I shouldn’t have tried to help.
I feel like it was one human being helping another human being. She didn’t ask me to come over but she was clearly grateful that I did.
Just to clear my head a bit, can I get some feedback on whether I am a good guy or an insensitive jerk? “WWTD” What Would T-man Do?[/quote]
your client sounds like she was taking tips from a porn movie.

The shove it down her throat approach and lack of respect for others is a much better approach than having some class and personal ethics. (Not!)

So, the choices are either “kiss her ass and tell her everything she wants to hear whether it is the truth or not just to keep her happy at all times” OR “complete and total disrespect and physical abuse”?
There’s no middle ground where we get to keep our dignity and nutsack?

Oh that’s right, you want to play, but you want the rules changed. No one on this thread has shoved more shit, shown less class, or breeched their own supposed ethical ceiling than fool–can you see why your interpretation means little. Sorry I didn’t have time to throw a little ‘chick porn’ in there for ya.
