Mine just dumped me.
I have a feeling it's partly because of airsoft.

That sucks my friend

I just broke up with mine, not over airsoft but......spending spree?

My girl friend made fun of me until I dragged her out paintballing with my pals. She loves the exercise and chance to legally shot a mouthy brat. She is also on board with me starting into airsoft, aslong as I don't let my gear collection get as big as it was.
So my new trick is find something I want, and buy it for her, and occasionally try it out.
I know she is still squirmish from the first strike round she took at near point blank range so she is all for airsoft if it is less painfull.

Good luck. Many have tried, and all have failed.

you, sir, is sly. Funny, reminded me of the time I let my grandparents play with an AK of my friends. My grandpa went on telling me that he was a part of a Chinese paramilitary group back in China, and he said that the best way to shoot the AK was holding it on the waist. Then my grandma went and shot my 1911 and was all excited wanting to shoot more.

Thankfully Ive never had to deal with a woman who tries to control what hobbies I tend to get into.

I know girls like that exist but I've done my best to stay away from them. besides, basically every girl thats ever walked into my house, thinks they're bad ass. So if your woman is being a partypooper about it, well you probably shouldnt be with that hippy slut anyways.

guns are good. hippies and soccer moms are the route of all evil.

I've gone through a couple gf's in my time of airsoft, none have ever cared. The bigger disappointment was, they ever expressed any interest in it either.

darkshift · April 6th, 2011, 07:45

haven't let her know im getting into airsoft yet, im just waiting for her to find a gun in the closet or something like that. we'll see.

Phileas Fogg · April 6th, 2011, 07:53

My wife at first did not like it, but she loves it now because I sold my real hunting riffles to pay for my airsoft equipment.

Ma seems opposed to anything resembling a "gun". Hell, when she found a price list of gear I was looking at (Vests, shirts/pants, harnesses, AEGs, etc), she started getting a little pissed, but mainly over how much it would cost.
Still, will err on the side of caution and keep any gear hidden. At least until I hit up a game. :P
