How to tell the GF?

[massmaker56]

Hey guys im a 6'2 215lbs. bodybuilder from Kentucky. Im around 10-11% bodyfat, for about the last four months it seems as if i've hit a plateau. I can't gain shit. So i've decided on my first cycle, just your basic test. Enth., dbol and nolvadex(14weeks)
Test E. at 500mg weeks 1-10
Dbol 40mg a day weeks 1-4
Nolvadex 40/30/20/20 weeks 10-14

Question is how do i tell my girl. Or do I? I mean my body is going to be changing a lot, shes probablly going to notice, and i can't tell her it the supplements im taking, because she knows what i take on a daily basis. Im pretty honest with her about everything but i don't know how she will react to this. She is pretty anti-drug. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Dont tell her. Dont tell anyone, IMO. Your probably gonna change your diet, so just tell her that you have been pounding the calories. Water weight? well thats from extra creatine

Buy any OTC supplement that says MASS or BULK or has a pic of a bodybuilder on it. Put it where she can see it, after a few weeks you say:

"Fuck, this shit really works!!!!!!!"

I had the same issue.
Some questions for you.
Do you live with her? Is so how you going to inject with her around.
Is she open minded?
How long you been with her? Is this someone you see yourself with for a long time?
Does she have a big mouth?

I think you know what I am talking about.
I have been with my girl 13 months now living together the last 9 or so. I didn't want to tell her because she is set in her ways and I was worried she might tell people.
About 6 weeks ago I had a large package of pins sent and she found out what was inside. She asks me about them but I denied everything. She let it go.
Just this past Sun she saw my browser history and AAS sites and she asks me again. I told her to shut up about it and asks her to move out.
Long story short we are still together and now she knows and while she does not agree with it she is understanding.

if you love her and want a future with her you cannot live a lie. if she is just a girlfriend then she doesnt need to know.

Thats exactly what it comes down to.

Need to know basis...

This and any other questionable activities in you life should be dealt with on a need to know basis. Girlfriends can turn vicious when "hurt". Wives become plaintiffs. Don't supply the ammunition.

Hmmm. Six months is not that long. I don't think I would tell her.
Good luck bro. I know what your feeling.

When and If you break up, she can

A. Call the Cops
B. Tell your Job
C. Tell your friends and family

Dont do it man

 

[lynx]

6 months? I'd say don't tell her anything.

 

[PIPEDREAM]

DO NOT TELL

Do not tell her. Some how if something goes wrong she might use it against you.
Everytime you argue or disagree with her she will claim its the ASS thats making you this way and your changing. I would just buy some OTC suppliment and make like the magazines do and say it works.
I have a friend that has been using for about 8 years and has had a girlfriend who was also using and they helped each other and they were great together. Now he has a new girlfriend about 2 years, who is not using and he decided to tell her because he wanted to have a close, open, honest relationship. Big mistake as now it has made things rough, she complains everytime they get in an argument that he has roid rage and needs to stop. She warns him about ASS and tells him he is going to get arrested sooner or later. I told him its time to dump her if she can not except him and not to tell ever again anyone, not anyone.
Just my 2cents.

If it is serious I would tell

At first I decided not to tell, but it was too much of a hassle hiding and sneaking everything. I started mentioning I was thinking about doing them (when I already was) and all she said was be careful. I convinced her that I would do them safely and responsibly, and now she does not care. It makes life alot easier not having to hide shit or worry about if she is going to find out or if someone is going to tell her. If you are serious and see a future I would present her with the facts about steroids because most people think they are some dangerous thing that will eventually kill you. If she still doesn't approve, tell her you're a grown ass man and you do what you want.

I AGREE.
Anyways, IMO, if she's really into you, she'll support you - even if she doesn't necessarily agree with it.

One way to avoid this is to call it testosterone instead of steroids. Many people think steroids are some chemical whipped up in a chemical plant. They don't think twice when testosterone is mentioned.

This worked with my wife. In my case I was already taking androgel and she knows it's testosterone and was prescribed by a doc. She's also familiar with how it enhances sexual performance, and appreciates that. So seeing it in an injectable form was no big suprise for her.

But everyone's situation is unique. At six months and only being a GF, I would approach this cautiously. Feel out her attitude about steroids in general and use that as a guide on how to continue. Maybe educating her about what they really are would help.

good luck.

That's true. And scary.
But as angry and vindictive as I could get towards an ex, I wouldn't even do that.
I suppose I'd remain to have a bit of respect for the fucker, regardless.


Anyways, chances are, you know something about her that would probably be best kept between the two of you.


Or maybe I'm far more liberal thinker

 

[wakejump4me]

if you don't tell her , you just don't love her .

wake

Wish that was true with most, but it's not. Some women will make your life hell if they feel you hurt them. Breaking up with them is one form of hurt.

I agree with what others have said, buy a completly new set up supplements and go on about this new workout routine you've found.

6 months is a bit iffy, but only you can decide if that is enough time in the relationship. If you do decide to tell her, the best thing you can do is explain what everything is, what it does so that she doesn't see the media and think 'zomg, teh steroidz r killing my b/f!' like many people do.

educate yourself

before you tell her, educate yourself on all the sides and any other red flags that non-bodybuilders come up with. Second go ahead and start without her knowing. If you tell her before you start, she will be watching you like a hawk for every little change (Rage). If you are 5 weeks in and you sit her down and talk to her about what you have been doing, she will be pissed that you didn't tell her from the start, but it should be easier to digest because you are on gear and nothing changed. You are the same person on or off cycle. You may be just a little more horny. Unless you are one of those people who start taking gear and think they are now some how invincable, she should be fine after a while. It takes time though, because people are naturally afraid of the unknown, so it is your job to be patient with her and answer all of her questions.
if she is the one I would tell her, if she is not the one, then you could be in some trouble if you ever broke up, or if you ever happen to cheat. It sounds like you care for her, or you wouldn't have posted it up here. GOOD LUCK!
