unable to do any vigorous activity...

Post Reply New Topic

I just realized now that I just got even less attractive to women. I have a high myopia and at risk of retinal detachment. All vigorous activities should be avoided. Therefore I cannot do virtually any sport, and even jogging! Therefore when I date a lady I cannot invite her to go any sport, a great deal of exercise or even jog on a fresh air.

Please prove me wrong here, that I can find a lady who is willing to go out on a dull, slow moving guy forever.

It certainly decreases your attraction value in their eyes, I am sorry.

*Any* fault, is a minus, some are bigger than others; it's a harsh truth.

Physicality isn't everything. Previously, someone expressed an interest in me and I walk slower than a slug drowning in chewing gum.

Although I can't relate to you in regards to walking slow (I walk fast because of my long legs), I feel your pain regarding not being able to do your favorite sport to watch (in my case MMA) due to myopia and it sucks! At least you're not specifically attracted to athletic girls like I am

I agree with this post, and I love it haha! I'm going to have to use this sometime, "I walk slower than a slug drowning in chewing gum", because I walk slow also, and it irritates my family to no end, but my boyfriend doesn't mind. He's the only one who doesn't drag me everywhere. Oh, I'm blind, in case everyone wonders... Anyhow, two points. 1, there is someone for everyone, and I firmly believe that, as long as you keep your attitude in the positive relm of things. two, I know there has to be women out there that aren't into viggerous activities, because I can't be the only one out there. LOL. Don't give up hope, my friend.

Gonna be honest as a woman. Never have I ever wanted to go for a jog or anything of the sort on a date. Sitting and drinking a coffee whilst chatting is pretty much normal date stuff, so you are not ruled out for that.

When you mentioned detached retina I immediately thought of the singer Paddy McAloon. If this chap can find someone then so can you.

I wouldn't overly worry about it, it's rare that a woman will want to do any of those things with you anyway.

Well surely all women aren't into sports or like jogging....can you go for walks?

Things you can do for dates/quality time:

-Picnic at a park
-Casual walking at a park
-Art museums, history museums, science museums
-Cooking meals together
-Taking some sort of hobby class together (like painting?)
-Two words: coffee date!
-Outdoor concerts that aren't too loud/dynamic, or orchestra concerts
-Road trips and/or geocaching
-Yoga? Stretching classes? Light weight lifting? Would you be able to do those?

When I love someone, I could have fun with them even if all we did was watch paint dry. You may be limited, but there are options. You can see this as an opportunity to become "the most interesting man in the world."

Are you still able to engage in sexual activity?

It is possible to have severe myopia and healthy eyes. You might see an ophthalmologist for a professional opinion on the health of your eyes.

You could try to find a woman who doesn't care about being fit.
