I entertained thoughts of leaving 3 times a day and would look at my boyfriend wondering why I chose him. I knew I was falling out of love, and so I told him. He was hurt at first, but he resolved to try, and try he did.
Now, we're picking things up.
Literally since I picked him up at the airport yesterday.
He sent me downstairs in the early morning and I cleared all my appointments. I had a breakdown somewhere inbetween because, wait for it, I couldn't attend yoga class. Talk about nonsense. My boyfriend has it bad with me :(
My body is amazing, I give it that. I put it through the mill with the nonsense that my mind wants to achieve (yes I'm onto you, brain) and it delivers. It has delivered stunningly for the past 5 months. And that's why we must press on.
Ever since the start of my fitness obsession, I have found it incredibly hard to bum around. A year ago, I could bum around to no repercussions. Now, I can't go two days of bumming around without hearing my muscles beg me to move.
So I got over it, cleared my appointments, and continued my date with Gabriel.
I wanted to climb over the railing and sit on the edge for a photo but Gabriel got so seriously pissed that I had to scrape it.
Bugis didn't have what he needed so we headed out to town. By now, my cramps have gotten so severe that I'm pretty much hugging my stomach and crouching into a little ball at every pit stop we have. Man, this month's bad.
We headed home early because my cramps were killing me and he kept cooing me into his arms and adorably kissing me all over till I said I had enough. Then we searched for acro yoga poses and decided to try two of them.
I have a bad habit of downplaying Gabriel. He would say he actually exercises and used to have abs but I'd doubt it aloud and mercilessly. He'd be annoyed and tell me I'm being rude by doing this but I wouldn't take it back.
But today, he managed to figure out an acro yoga pose within seconds.
He put me into position, absorbed all the strength (it was supposed to be my effort but I couldn't do it because of my core workout some days back still aching) and I finally had a taste of his strength.
I think I kissed his muscles to sleep after that heh heh.
Gabriel is starting this new venture that I initially didn't want to be a part of. So I made him an exchange: for every 5 hours of me investing into this venture, I get an hour of his back where he will do any sport I push him to.
And yoga was his nemesis. He'd say he'd rather run than yoga. Rather go for combat than yoga. Rather go for jazz classes than yoga. I told him he's setting himself up for a world of pain when I clock in all the 'rather's. He had a quick moment of realization then ignored me haha.
So I guess we're taking up jazz! Even though I can't tell left from right! Oh well!
What a nice end to my day.
