Spouse or gf living unhealthy lifestyle

[DefMetalLifter]

Anyone here have a significant other that lives unhealthy lifestyle? I do! My wife drinks like 5 days a week and also smokes. It's hard getting back from the gym and then watching her drink. Then I wake up extra early to jog. All this hard work I put in to look good and it's almost like she doesn't care or appreciate it. Oh well I do it for myself.
I was reading some of my school work from when I was a kid. One of my hobbies was lifting weights at age 11! I didn't even remember I loved it back then. I know when I was 19 I really got into it full time. It's just in my blood!

Anyway just trying to feel out my brothers on this subject. I usually partake in some drinking with her on the weekends so I'm not totally innocent. I do love to drink and it sucks cause it doesn't help my bodybuilding. I just try to drink vodka and sparkling ice( sugar free) so at least I'm not taking in any calories. I know it still doesn't help.

Same situation brutha I don't ride into her to much about it though. She's just one of those girls that eats once a day doesn't drink water and wonders why she feels like shit and gets migranes. You either gotta be that guy that decides your gonna love them for their personality or for their life choices. Honestly it'd be shallow as fuck just because I made a choice on my hobby that I'll judge another for not sharing that.
The only real thing that bugs me is my chick likes to complain about my lifting every few months which makes me snap.

my wife and I have mostly the same habits good and bad and the rest we accept

Ok so I'm not alone. Lol. Ya it gets to me sometimes. At least now again she could say, " wow your looking good what progress you have had!"
Haha. I wish. She thinks my head is too big to fit through the door already. Probably why she doesn't say anything that will make me feel good. Then of course she blames steroids every time I have an emotion. Ha like I would never get upset, angry or snap as a normal human being.

Not really in the same ball park here. My wife don't drink or smoke.hits the gym 2-3 times a week. But she eats crap. I cook Monday-Thursday for instance last night I cooked slow roast pork belly 3 plus hours. When it's her turn it will be pizza or some other shit take away food.

My wife at least tries to eat good. Although it's usually one or two meals. At night she always has a plain chicken breast or may melt some cheese on it. But that's pretty good diet considering her other habits. At least she is carb conscious. Lol
