Going from swole to small to swole again

Also while we're at it, anyone else still not over an ex?

My ex and I split up 2.5 years ago. Since then I've hooked up with a dozen girls and dated one girl for 9 months, but I'm not one step closer to over my ex. What the hell? Anyone else?

What exactly is about your ex that you miss?

Fast how? Is it okay that I have to start with much lower weights and do a more BB style workout (higher reps, not as much heavy compounds)?

Literally everything. I don't pretend it's greener pastures but I miss how she was so smart, always a year ahead of the game in emotional maturity. I was also a year ahead of her in emotional maturity simultaneously; we both brought each other to higher places.

She's also in my eyes still the best looking girl I know. Hot, beautiful, and cute all in one.

She was my intellectual equal, too. We both fascinated each other with engaging conversation for three straight years.

We were each others' rocks and helped each other through parents getting divorced and all other manner of mental-health destroyers. But that was the trouble too. We were too much of each other and it cracked after a few years long distance.

I went from 80 to 72. I matched my lifts within a month and surpassed them another month after that.

Well, you see it's only a matter of chance until you find another girl like that. Need to keep meeting new people all the time. The more you try, the more chances you get.

Thanks mate. I just think I've forgotten how to open up and become friends with people. She and I were best friends before dating

I have done it a few times. For the past few years I've worked in seasonal reforestation so I bulk all year and gain some size then go live in the bush for the summer and kill all my gains. It comes back pretty quick if you know what you're doing diet wise and you don't injure yourself like a fucking chump.
