Man Discourages His Girlfriend from Running a Marathon, Putting Her Down for Her Lack of Experience: ‘You’re not taking it seriously enough’

Welcome, tea lovers from across the web. If your partner takes an interest in one of your hobbies, it can be difficult not to feel a bit protective or possessive over the 'right' way to do things, ultimately driving them away from both the potential shared activity and the even relationship. For example, if you are a big Harry Potter fan, you might feel compelled to convince your interested partner to read the books first or to do a 20-hour Harry Potter Marathon. But if you really want your partner to be interested in your interests, it is important to let them go at their own pace, and if that means watching one Harry Potter movie a month, so be it.

In our story today, a serious runner attempts to dissuade his girlfriend from participating in a half marathon. Because it is her first race, she is okay with walking or jogging most of the way. Put off by her lack of interest in training hard and aiming for an impressive time, he belittles her attempts to step out of her comfort zone and try something new. Read below for the full tea.
