I lied about loving hiking to impress someone and now I’m accidentally in the best shape of my life
We matched a few months ago and they mentioned hiking. I said “me too!” like a damn parrot. Problem is, they actually hike. Real trails. Elevation. Bugs. I kept saying yes because I liked them.
Now we go almost every weekend. I’ve lost 6 pounds, my legs are toned, and I bought a hydration pack. I still hate it, but also… weirdly proud?
I live in fear of the day I admit I was lying the whole time.

I don’t love going to the gym, but I love the results so I keep going.
It’s pretty common to feel this way about exercise.
Well if everything else is good then maybe they’re a keeper? Find someone who makes you better 🙂
I hike! Why won’t someone do this for meeee
The day you do a hike with so many bugs, switchbacks and elevation changes, and end with your body sore for a week and then you swear you’ll never go again, and then you do.. that’s when you find out how much you actually love hiking. Sounds like you’re well on your way!
I have a hunch they know. 🙂
