Is it normal my gf doesn't want me to have "lame hobbies"

She's not the girl for you.

Basically, she's not dating you for the person you are, but rather because you fit her superficial preferences. Eventually, you'll notice you have to hold certain topics back, or she'll judge you, even though what you want to do is harmless and normal, it's her ego and reputation she only cares about.

Good luck to you man. I know that even though with what you read here, you'll still stay with her for a while or until she says something unforgivable. Understand that this behavior of hers does not go away with time, but only gets worse.

You need a different girlfriend.

Carve her a pretty breakup carving.

¡¿WTF?!

Who the Hell is she to pass judgement on your potential hobbies and judge you and your masculinity just because you're artistic? My dad is ex Special Forces, and he has an Art degree! Dump that stupid, simple minded bitch.

Dump her and find a woman interested in sculpting, wood carving and you no matter what your pursuits. You will have a happier life.

She should be sent on her merry way.

Who put her in charge? If you want to wood carve, you carve wood. There are far worse hobbies/ pastimes you could be into.

Besides, if you have a talent for it you may be able to sell the carvings at craft fairs & those little art shops.

She's a lame woman.. Dude, do it. There are so few real craftsmen left in this world, please pursue this :) If your cunt of a girlfriend doesn't see the passion in it that you do,,,forget that skank

More like a lame girlfriend, it seems to me. I would break up with her if I were you.

Suggestion for your new hobby: Use an ear-splittingly noisy chainsaw belching clouds of smoke and spewing wood-chips to carve huge tree trunks into giant sculptures of naked women with improbably enormous breasts, narrow waists, perfect bubble-butts, and prominent vulvas.

That would satisfy your need to work creatively in wood, as well as your girlfriend's desire that you have a hobby that's really manly.

Anyone who believes that artists are all sissies is pig-ignorant. Yeah, some artists are gay, but a lot of artists through the ages were known for being regular horn-dogs who seduced countless women and left a trail of illegitimate children behind them.

Your girlfriend is a bossy, shallow idiot who's far too concerned about what others think.

It might be lame to her but then things she does might be lame to you. Would she stop her lame activities for you? I doubt it. If she is more concerned about what other people think, she is too shallow. Dump her and get a real woman. One that would be on your side and you can be on her side too. Life's too short to be involved with caustic people.

What an insecure bitch, and screw you too for not sticking up for yourself. You deserve someone who supports you but also need to stop being such a little beta

She should love you for who you are, and it doesn't seem like she does. Seems like she's trying to change you into someone you're not. Stay away from her.

I take this so personal because I would trade a man like you in for a man like my ex husband of 12 1/2 years in a Heartbeat!

All he ever did was drugs and drinking and gangs and cheated on me ! Oh yeah and then when I tried to break up with him he stopped me for years and tried to kidnap our children! Finally got away! In 2008! Just to have two more bad relationships that hurt me even more! So I've been single since 2012 now!

so yeah if I had a man that worked on cars worked and regular job and wanted to do woodworking for a hobby yeah I would take him. The b**** needs to shut her mouth before she gets a scrub and finds out the hard way!

Get rid of her, you deserve better than that Snake

So I have to start by saying that your girlfriend is by far the most insecure manipulative b**** ever! I'm only coming on that strong because of the fact that one she belittled you as a man then proceeded to sit there and try to manipulate you into thinking that art is a feminine thing only which it's not of all the art in the World wood making is feminine is she f****** out of her mind do you realize that if you were to go into the wood making as a business if you got really good at it that you could actually make a living at it if anything I say dump the b**** and get somebody that's going to encourage you and uplift your spirits someone that has a backbone and respects you and that will be there not that someone that's going to be disrespectful and put you down for being creative and being yourself this woman is only thinking of herself and the fact that it's going to take time away from her and her needs and what she's going to be perceived as if you're doing something that she finds that is feminine or it might just be an excuse that she said it was feminine and she doesn't think that at all,, a trick to make you think it was so you wouldn't do it. Anyway she was totally in the wrong for telling you what she did and it highly made me upset and the only reason why I'm taking it so personal it's because the fact that more women need to treat their men right if they have good men in their lives! that's why we have men out there treating women wrong and vice a versa people just need to treat people with respect and decency and when you go into relationship you're supposed to support one another in all aspects of life!

She sounds very controlling. Plus it's just weird to think that being artistic isn't manly, as if there's only ever been female artists or something.

Your girlfriend sounds like a Grade A Cunt.

dump that ho

woodworking is sex related in her mind , let me explain how she thinks, its incredible expensive and every dollar you spend is one less dollar you have to spend on her, she is just a smarter whore than whores you dated in the past , thats all. Think about the timing of her apology and how it included sex . this is to reinforce her decision for you with a sexual release. and it worked. she is a good whore. she outsmarted you twice. of course woodworking is a male only hobby , it takes a lot of muscles to push metal into wood. so she attacked your manhood
, then knowing you would figure it out she apologized and told you to be a good cuck and not have a hobbie. That has worked good as well. BTW just one of my german made carving chisels was 50 dollars , i figure i have about 20 thousand dollars in tools. Enough wood tools and talent i could make a coffin and put her in it drive it to town and all people would say is wow, thats a nice coffin, who is the lucky stiff.

Carve her a new dildo and tell her she should appreciate it, because it's her new boyfriend. Then dump her ass.

Leave her a note that will piss her off.

She prefer body-builders.
