Break-up or Divorce due to Disc Golf?

[ReedyCreekProduct]

Has Disc Golf ever played a role in ending your relationship?

As painful as it may be, let's hear about it.

 

[jrawk]

Really!? I hope the married non-pro dg'er was smart enough to take a step back and put down the discs.

 

[Roc1Time]

Nope my ole lady doesnt care

 

[ZBoazMobster]

Been with my o'Lady for 18 years now. DG couldn't compare with the hell she has been thru. I'll bet you that she'd rather I be there, than alot of places from my history. You COULD say: DG has helped save my relationship.

EDIT: I just realized 18 years is exactly half my life.

I'm a good looking 25 year old. I work with all women and they can't fathem why I'm always single. When I do meet a girl I like, I tell em that dg is my #1 priority and that I play 5 days a week, with my days off being 12 hour dg days. It hasn't gone over well yet

dg has played a role in a couple break ups but it was usually an overall not being on the same page value wise thing, moreso than just dg.

Good for you man. You might as well be up front with women at the start.

IMHO, the key with women is to under-promise and then over-deliver, anyway.

Remember, Disc Golf loves you unconditionally. You can cheat on it with other sports. You can ignore it for years and then start right back having fun with it. It's very inexpensive and good for your health.

Can the same things be said about a girlfriend or wife? I doubt it.

My wife is always #1.

Isn't that the truth, its funny as hell, but so true. My wife doesn't mind my playing as long as I also do the family thing as well. Since my little boy plays also, that helps me get away more often.

best answer yet. I whole heartedly agree with you.

 

[Huk Finn]

My wife plays disc with me about once a week and loves it. I get off work earlier and play about 3-4 times a week. No issues. I count me lucky stars.

I agree, but I'd be bummed if my wife decided I couldn't have hobbies any more. You see it a lot on music boards...women hook up with their men while they play in bands and then don't like it when they go to practice or gigs. I don't see how it'd be different for any other hobby. Of course family responsibility comes first, but taking care of yourself and doing what you love is also important.

I would never put Disc Golf before CHILDREN, but I ain't havin' any of those.

The truth!!

You also see it with women who fall for dare-devil adrenaline junkies and then try to change THAT behavior. That makes a little more sense, but then why did you fall for the dare-devil adrenaline junkie in the first place, WOMAN?

If I were a husband I'd be Al Bundy from "Married with Children", except I'd play a round of Disc on the way home from the Shoe Store.

 

[Jody Mitchell]

My wife and kids both play enough with me to allow me to play rounds without them so it's all good here.

*keeps fingers crossed*

#4. Family

#5. Religion

Fiance just wants me to take her with me whenever possible which is most the time. She actually just ordered me $60 in discs that are on their way for my birthday next Monday. But I cant have them until then.

My girl did that for my graduation and it was torture waiting

Its nice to have a cool girlfriend though huh?

 

[Nathanbr2]

Nope, my gf just insists that she's going to beat me some day

 

[nojjjj]

The only times my gf gets upset about dg are..

1. I take her car
2. I spend a bit too much on discs

Other than that its great.
