10 Reasons Not to Date a Bodybuilder

 This is a follow up on my last post.  
Despite all its perks, dating a bodybuilder definitely has its downs as well.

10 Reasons not to date a bodybuilder

1.  They are very into themselves.
2.  You can't get away with any snacks without them snatching it and reading off the health facts, number of calories...etc.
3.  Because of their strength they have problems being gentle.  A play push could send you flying across the room.
4.  They take more 'selfies' and spend more time in the mirror than you do.
5.  Their protein or "gains" is their most prized possession.
6.  Like women, they dress to impress.  This usually consists of tank tops and cut offs all day, every day.
7.  Everywhere you go, all eyes are on him -always.  If you have a jealous personality, this relationship will not work for you.
8.  Every day is gym day.  I know, I put this in my "Top 10 Reasons to date a bodybuilder", but sometimes this can be a real hassle.  
9.  They're very critical about the food you put in your mouth -unless it's their cheat day then they turn into a huge hypocrite.
10.  They can be moody and emotional often due to their supplement intake.

10 Reasons to Date a Bodybuilder

When my boyfriend and I first met, I was instantly head over heels -partially due to the fact that his biceps are bigger than my head.  But when I started to get to know him, I realized there's a lot to learn about the lifestyle of a bodybuilder.

1.  They are always in shape, even during 'bulking season'.
2.  They constantly motivate you to stay in shape with them.
3.  They encourage healthy eating habits
4.  When they diet, you diet with them.  
         -This may not sound like a plus, but trust me, it really is.  And it gets easier every time.
5.  Their muscles alone make it impossible to lay eyes on anyone else
6.  Even if you're average size, their size makes you feel tiny
7.  They can pick you up and toss you around like it's nothing -this is definitely a plus
8.  They stay clean shaven, always !  This includes arms, and maybe even legs.  And they will expect you to stay on top of this as well.
9. Every day is gym day.  -Again, this may not sound like a plus, but it becomes as natural as brushing your teeth at night and the hard work pays off.
10.  Underneath all the muscle, there's a still a sweetheart with a soft side.
