Well, if what you're choosing to go after is the kind of girl you're describing I'll admit I'm confused. How a girl who can be dressed down all the time and talk about shopping and clothes all the time would leave me a little baffled too. Honestly, when I was your age I was interested in philosophy, religion, animals and the outdoors. Shopping was an occasional pastime but it wouldn't be something I'd drag a guy to, or even discuss with him, and I've NEVER gotten the shoe thing, ever.
IOW, I don't know what to tell youProbably that you're best bet female wise, if you're really that worried about your training getting in the way, is to find a chick who lifts real iron, too. Not every guy likes that look or mindset in a female, though.
I will tell you that if you see a girl with a BANGIN' body who is clearly taking care of herself and in shape, wearing a LOT of makeup, then she probably thinks she isn't very pretty -- whether or not it's true makes no difference.
i never said they talk about shopping or clothes all the time while being dressed down
and besides i havnt dated much. my conclusions about female behavior is mostly from outside creapin/peakin not from my own personal experience.
although i take from personal experience too obviously.
i think im going to walk up to a chick in the weightroom today doing bent over rows and just slap her ass super hard and flex in her face and wink then TAKE her number
