Newly single as of tonight and I'm pretty sure skiing is to blame.
So yea, boofuckinghoo this shit sucks, but I'm saving the details and asking your opinion: Does skiing ruin relationships with the opposite sex? Why or why not?
Please, enlighten me NS.

Just don't go out with girls that don't ski! I'm sure my obsession with skiing would be intolerable to a non-skier, so I always keep it casual with non skier girls.
 
I just stick to dating skiers. Dated a snowboarder once... Didn't work out well.
 
Haha, this! Nothing worse than waiting for a girl skiing and having to pretend you're ok with it!
 
It's all about priorities. As a whole, I think I can say that we all hold skiing as a pretty high one, but chances are that our girls do not. Just keep that in mind before you start dating one of them.

The other thing about skiing is that it isn't like most sports that pull tail (Hockey, Football, Lax), because your girl can't really watch you play and show you off to her friends.
 
[insert leisure activity which consumes too much time] ruins relationships.

and fuck off with this "date a skier"-horseshit. i honestly tried, twice, and was blinded by it so much that i couldnt recognize the lack of basic relationship credentials.
 
Yep. Went out with a girl for 5 months and although when she split up with me she didn't say that it was a problem it clearly was. I was at uni 5 days a week, skiing at least 2 nights a week, going out with the ski club one night a week and she couldn't hack the fact I prioritised skiing over her. So many conversations of "are you free to do something tonigh?." "Nope sorry, going skiing"
 
1. date a skier

2. date someone who knows how much you ski and is 100% ok with it, and try to teach them to ski and take them out once in a while and they love it.
 
Met my husband skiing 8 years ago, just got onto a chair together and started talking, if it's meant to be, it's meant to be..

skiing only ruins relationships that aren't meant to work out anyway.
 
I tried to date a non-skier once, didn't work out. So I just stick to dating skiers/boarders, we girls have the same problem. So advice, find a girl that rides. Problem solved.
 
My area was lacking skiers in general. Now I'm here and id totally date a skier. She would have to know that I'm here because of skiing and she's a benefit.
 
Most girls don't understand that skiing is the most radical sport ever. So they think that they're cooler than skiing, so they become under the impression that time with them is more important than skiing. Which is false.
 
idk if i had this discussion with you before, but i certainly said the same thing to a pinkname on here before:

your BF walks up to you, he is a hardcore [insert "cool" hobby]. and he straight says in your face: "my [hobby] is more important than you".

and you wanna tell me that youre completely ok with that? even if the cool hobby was skiing?
 
Yes because I've had boyfriends who don't ski and have gone skiing over the opportunity to hang out with them. So if my significant other wants to ski with me cool, let's go. But if its a perfect day and you think I'm going to sit inside and watch the history channel with you then you...are just mistaken
 
I had a girlfriend that was really into skiing. It worked out great when we were skiing, Then she got lazy and I got a burn out.
 
kinda not really. the only conflict ive found is sleeping late with girl vs getting up early to ski.
 
My boyfriend skis all day every day, but he does a good job of making me feel like I'm still his first priority. I can only ski nights and weekends because of my work schedule, so it's less of an issue the other way around for us.

I think that if it's a real relationship, that should come before skiing - but that doesn't mean the other person should constantly be holding you back. As long as you make time for each other are able to show each other you care, then you should just be stoked when the other person is out doing what they love. The person you're dating should add to your life, not constantly force you to choose between them and skiing. And you should do the same for them in return.
 
ive had past boyfriends that made me choose them or skiing.

I obviously chose skiing.

But my current boyfriend skis just as much as i do and it works out swimmingly.

So as sated above a million times, dont date anyone unless they ski or are aware of how much you ski
 
i havent dated a skier once and all my past relationships sucked. i'd like to date a skier but there aren't many around here
 
only if you let it. ive been going out with the same gf for over 2 years, and to be honest the only time she ever got mad when i went skiing is when i get hurt, or she finds out ( by one of my snich friends ha) that i wasnt wearing a helmet . main thing that has kept us together is she respects my passion and i respect hers ( working out everyday, doing figure/ bikini competitions etc) so she def has the understanding to get the fact that if its a good day , theres a good chance ima go skiing, but she knows i will always make time for her later, and like i said, she has hobbies, and work etc , so she not the kind of girl to sit around al day and wait for me to get back etc. thats the main thing in my opinion, just accepting that everyone has different passions , and they need to go out and do them, simple as that , i guess i may just be lucky, but i ski a shitload and my gf has never skiied ( never wanted to ) and weve been together for 2 yrs , so ya just keep it cool and respectfull.
 
Yea it does but it's fine, specially if you travel a lot it's really hard to keep a relationship standing, unless you can travel together and live the same lifestyle.

And the whole thing about 'just date a skier' there are like 1 girl to 10 boys on the mountain so that means 9 skiers will always be single. just find a nice girl who has her own passion even tho it's not skiing and it might work.
 
thisany girl who cares more about being with you all the time than you being happy can fuck off.
 
I think my relationship is ruining skiing. I just started hanging out with this girl and I havnt gone skiing in over a week now. But I dont mind:)
 
I'm dating a snowboarder and it works out good. It's nice to be able to get on the mountain with a guy. either a skier or snowboarder, but yeah, I think skiing could ruin a relationship if the girl doesn't kill it and you ski often.
 
I taught my girlfriend how to snowboard when we first started dating and now she rips. She easily keeps up with me on most runs. She doesn't go in the park though. I still haven't gotten her to put on a pair of skis, but she loves snowboarding and I still take out my board 1-2 times a season so she's cool with it.
 
everyone says they don't want to ski with their girlfriends because their girlfriends aren't fast enough or good enough. So why don't you head to the mountain together and split ways-- meet up for lunch and beer at the end of the day?
 
I don't think skiing is to blame... the issue is probably that she was a beezie. If she's not down with your hobbies than you're with the wrong girl
 
I've been told by my girlfriends friends that she talks about me non-stop when i'm skiing. To the point of them being annoyed. And yes, I will confirm that if you ski more then you hang out with your girlfriend, they will get annoyed.
