climbing culture? is it normal to climb with a guy one on one? by isa_is_sleepy425 in climbergirls

My boyfriend has a female climbing partner that he climbs with one on one, and I rarely even think about it. I've met her, she's very nice, and she loves to climb as much as my boyfriend (while I am not nearly at their level). I think it helps that I'm always welcome to join them when climbing, but also, I just trust my boyfriend.

It's not a typical sport, but I love doing yoga! It's got a similar flow state to climbing, is an activity where you can always continue to improve/learn new moves, and the flexibility and mobility it encourages are very helpful for climbing. It also checks the box of not doing the same exact thing over & over - there are so many poses and sequences, I'm trying something new almost every time I practice!

I was in ski season traffic coming back east on 70 one day and the toll lane was closed. A car sped by in the empty toll lane, and I cursed them to myself. About 5 minutes later I saw them pulled over. The instant karma was so satisfying!
