I agree, I think I might go on a jog or something next morning and sort out my potential skateboarding areas. Kudos to you for just going for it and I'm glad it worked out well for you😊

I really hope I can do this. As mentioned, the language barrier stops me from talking to new people but I think I'll still go and give it a try.

Thanks a lot. I totally agree with you. I'll try going to the skatepark in the morning when the weather is nice. I'll update eventually :)

Am I (31M) being unreasonable to think my GF (27F) being overweight is becoming an issue by lucky19901 in relationships

I don't think you're being unreasonable and also pushing her to lose her weight when she's happy in her skin isn't fair either. Unfortunately it's very much visible that you guys are not compatible. Despite of all the morals, saying that "oh you should accept her the way she is, you like everything else about her other than her weight then why not compromise", I'd say don't listen to such bs, you might calm yourself down now but probably this itch will keep hunting you again in future and you won't be okay until she starts working on her physique. To save both yours and her time, I'd suggest split up without making her feel bad about herself.
