Man, things have been pretty rough lately with my girlfriend. We’re totally not on speaking terms right now, and it all kicked off during dinner last night.
I mean, I didn’t see eye to eye with her dad on a couple of things, and she thought I was being super disrespectful. We got into this verbal sparring match that felt like a scene out of a reality show, and honestly, it was a mess.
So, this morning, she hits me up and invites me to her hot yoga class, which she’s mentioned before.
I wanted to be polite, you know?
But I had to drop the truth bomb: hot yoga isn’t really my jam. I told her I’d rather chill outside and wait for her instead of stretch it out in a room that felt like a sauna.
But somehow, I ended up in that class, rocking my football off-day workout gear. I swear, the heat was passive-aggressively high. After about fifteen minutes, I was ready to tap out. I needed a quick water break, so I slipped out of the room, hoping to cool down. But when I came back, the instructor had turned off the music and gave me this look like I was the villain in a cheesy movie. “Don’t leave again,” she said, and I could feel the judgment in the air.
Ten minutes later, I was redder than a lobster, feeling like I might just melt into a puddle on the floor. In a moment of sheer desperation, I burst into the women’s locker room like I was in some kind of action movie. I grabbed my girlfriend’s spare Alo Yoga shorts from her locker and swapped them for my compression shorts. I mean, what else was I supposed to do? It was either that or pass out in front of everyone.
I finished the rest of the class in those shorts, feeling a mix of embarrassment and determination. After class, I texted her dad and told him that I’m not apologizing for what I did. I told my girlfriend the same thing, and she shot back that what happened at dinner didn’t correlate to her asking me to take yoga with her. But then she got upset about me “throwing on her shorts,” telling me they’re from Alo Yoga and that I’m buying her a new pair.
