"Break-ups Breed Bodybuilders".
To many, this may not make sense. But think about it: After a rough breakup, i.e having your heart ripped out of your chest, there are 3 kinds of people. The people who mourn forever and refuse to move on, the people that constantly look for new ways to move on quickly and the folks who spend time mourning but decide that they want to move on which ends up in attempts to better themselves.
I was the last one. I spent a decent amount of time mourning the person I thought I knew and loved. I didn't know what to do, I was lost, confused, angry, I hated him, I hated me and I didn't know how to cope with the pain. So at some point, I began recklessly flailing about, trying to ease the pain, date whoever, go out as much as I could, drink when given the chance, sleep with people to try to fill the void..... but of course, none of that actually worked.
At that point I knew that I would need to learn to treat myself, be kind to myself, LOVE myself and do whatever it took to make myself happy.
I was always interested in fitness due to obesity in my family but I was always with some guy who didn't like the gym, and I let that dictate to my own life.
So the first thing on my list was the gym.
I found my niche slowly, and my goals fell in place.....I won't lie, the results became addicting....for the first time in a long time, I had control! Control over my body, myself, my health! And its amazing how far I've come!
So, the gym life may not be for everyone. Let's switch out the word "Bodybuilder" for something that you've always had a desire to do?
"Break-ups Breed Writers"! "Break-ups Breed Travelers"!
Let's face it--being in a relationship can be wonderful. But there are things that many relationships will not allow us to do. Whether we don't have the time or whatever the case, after a break-up is always the best time to rediscover yourself and start over!
