I have this theory that women, or at least a good majority of them, are a lot like a memory foam mattress or pillow when they get into a relationship. We mold, at least somewhat, to our man's life. We take on his interests, his friends, hi pasttimes. It would be immasculating if it were otherwise. And perhaps that's why we hve such a hard tim after a breakup - we are left with more of a void in our lives when something ends. Perhaps this is also why it's so necessary for a woman to be alone to re-find and refill herself following a breakup.
So I'm challenging myself to take some time and reabsorb the air and de-form back to full foam form. I challenge myself to fill my time with things that intrigue, excite, or rejuvinate me. That it how I ended up at a pilates class with a reformer machine. Wow! Loved it! I could feel the deep work of my muscles while they simultaneously lengthened. It was fabulous, and I needed very little stretching afterward since the mucsles were elongating throughout the workout. I hope to keep going, but it's very expensive.
Next on the workout agenda is either swimming or barre classes. :)
