Finding an Exercise Partner/Buddy/Pal/Comrade/Ally/Colleague

How did you go about finding an exercise partner?

Typically I try to work with the girl I'm dating my exercise partner to get some foreplay action going, but I never date the same person unfortunately in excess of two-three weeks.

Any idea on the best way to find someone, preferably a guy actually so the person sticks around-with similar build and goals to share to motivate and get motivated from on the workout experience?

    I go to the gym. I look for people who are lifting solo who lift almost as much or more than me and have decent form.

    I guess I'm talking more than the gym life, cause I do have that already -I'm talking like partner - trail runs, hikes, swimming - I do a great deal of activities to maintain the body.

    I keep hearing about this tinder but don't know much about it. Would you suggest it for me to find a good workout partner?

    ^she dumped me...it was my fault I still have a little more growing up to do. - we are on good terms and everything tho.. :embarassed:

    I'm talking to a few new ladies now, one is a former run-way model that just got back to the states, and the other does modeling as well.. not a former run-way model, but she is a QT 3.14 and has the sexxy hair. ;)

    4 years younger then me tho...

    but as I said I really should find a workout buddy - girls I have other things going on with tend to be only around temporarily....

    What makes you think your new guy "workout buddy" won't want a commitment of longer than two or three weeks? Fidelity has no gender!

    ummm... "unable to keep one around"
    :noway:
    da faq bro...? She was a former run-way model from Brazil, super active with the sexy cute vibe going on simultaneously... I dated her exclusively for a lil-bit and had a great time and learned a lot, and it ended as okish 'friends'..
    it's much more comprehensive then simply not keeping one around.. she is a lady so I respected her decision. I only want the very very best to stick around, and only will stick around if the girl is better than me, because being incredible myself I'm not willing to settle for anything less than whats my view of the ideal individual. If I wanted some average chick, then I could have them stick around easy.

    jeez man.

    Since you can't maintain a relationship longer than 2-3 weeks, I would suggest you stop focusing on women and instead focus on yourself because you clearly aren't ready or even capable of a relationship... seeing as you switch girls as often as I change my panties and all you do is brag about the "models" you date. Newsflash: looks only go so far.

    Humbleness goes a long way. You should try it.

    sorry to hear that brah. it might be good to find someone with similar interests, but you really should stay focused on one thing at a time. you are all over the place and consistency is a good thing.

    yeah I'm not even arguing - totally agree - even that at this moment I'm not capable of a relationship - sure I need to grow up a bunch - I'm working on it.

    And I know looks only go so far, I'm really working on developing and enhancing my character as well.

    OP bash fest 'up in here'?

    I find it best to stay motivated if I don't work out with my husband. He and I have different workout styles and different needs. If I go to the gym with him we split up as soon as we hit the door and usually don't see each other until we're ready to leave. I find people in my social group who want to go with me. Mondays and Wednesdays I go to the gym with my friend after work. Saturdays I workout by myself and Sunday mornings I meet my grandma and mom to workout. We've also met people at the gym recently that I may hit up as a workout buddy. I do suggest someone of the same sex that will keep you competitive and motivated.
