She spends countless hours at the stable taking care of the horse in addition to the riding, and during the summer heat she takes it to a pond on the property to go for a swim very frequently. I went with her the other day and while it was fun going for the swim, it was the entire afternoon and she does this often times both weekend days and sometimes after work on weeknights. She's dated plenty of guys over the years, but I really think she can't prioritize a relationship over her horse at this point in her life. We're in our late 20's now, so I wonder if this will change in the next few years...

+1 Horseback riding is a lifestyle. Even for the very wealthy who have other people doing the stable work, it's a huge time commitment just gearing up, going to the stables, riding, going straight home (you smell!), and showering after. And that's assuming someone else cleans your gear after, brushes down the horse, and does all the stable work. Both people need to be really into it.

I've ridden my whole life. Our two daughters now ride. My husband has been on a few trail rides but not for years. He's an excellent barn and show dad. Yes, we spend multiple six figures on it every year and it takes up so much time but our kids love it and my husband always encourages me to ride because it makes me happy. I'm sure if he had to choose he would have picked a different sport but he has happily supported us all for 10 years. And I don't mean supported financially, I also work and have my own money so while we do pay the monthly bills out of out joint account, I purchased my horse with my own money.

I am woman considering joining equestrian sports. Do you actually need to spend 6-figures on it as a beginner? Income 400K

No . There is a good barns here with schooling horses and good instructors. One I know has adult only lessons too if you’re interested.

Yes, that would be great if you can drop the contact here

Where do you live? I’m said make equestrian from PP . Apparently I have angry exes in here too if they’re from the same area as me.

But yeah I can drop it if you’re local and hope to see you out there . We have a good adult program and some of us do show as well.

DMV area

I figured…lol

Where. I know a couple of places that are really good. Depending on where you live I’d point you in the right direction. One is a larger barn with schooling horses, has boarding and options to show if you ever get into that. Adult only groups for beginners and advanced alike. If you’re a male there are other male riders here that are beginners, intermediate and advanced. If you’re a female there is of course plenty of female riders.

The other one is smaller but a trainer I’ve known for a long time who lives, breaths and sleeps horses and she’s a good trainer with a small contingent of adult riders of different skill levels. I know the riders there too and they’re all mostly nice.

If you’re looking really far out I know of places in The Plains/Middleburg area that are ok. And if you want to give a hand at fox hunting I know another place.

Anyways let me know.

I'm with those saying watching sports. If your partner wants to spend all Sunday watching football then forget it. It's one thing to watch the Super Bowl or some other game like that but that's a once a year thing. I still don't watch the Super Bowl and am proud to say I don't know who won or even played in it this year.

A guy that watches too much TV or is always on screens. This includes being into watching sports of any kind - college or professional.

Also, a guy to drinks too much is a red flag for me. I don't like the scene. A glass of wine or beer with dinner is one thing. Hanging out in a bar or club is a whole different level of gross I'm not willing to do. Also, I don't like being around drunk people, even is the guy is never one of them.

My friend should have with electric trains!!!

This. I'm not some animal rights obsessed-type, but I just find mounted animal heads so tacky.

Watches college sports

Good one. I dated a lady who was very into college sports.

It got so boring.

Anything anime, Disney or Harry Potter related for me. I mean going to Disney is all fine and good. Obsessed with Disney or Harry Potter is weird. Anime is strange so no. Also if you’re a “photographer”. No you’re not, you take mid pictures and use filters and no one cares.

Green flag hobbies are anything outdoors like kayaking, paddle board, hiking. Gym and fitness related.

Horse people are crazy. I dated a guy for a little bit who was into riding. He talked about it nonstop, had a lot of friends in the horse world and they were all drama. I couldn't be around it so the "relationship" didn't last. The one thing I will say is he was in great shape. I'm sure some of it had to do with riding.

Hmmm, wonder if I dated the same guy. Was in great shape and was an English rider. Only met his friends once or twice but they seemed standoff-ish but were friendly when I did engage with them first.

He was a good rider and I enjoyed watching when I got a chance to see it but it was always either a long day or it took a lot of time. He was at the barn constantly and it was too big a part of his life and I just got tired of it. I think I stayed longer than I intended because he looked good in riding pants and boots.

Wish we could connect because this sounds too familiar and like the guy I dated.

Not PP. The horse guy I dated rode English too. Maybe that is common, I’m not that into horses. I didn’t see him ride really besides a view videos and photos. He was also into lifting. Wonder if it is the same person.

I don’t think so? He never mentioned it. I saw him for a couple months a few years ago. He was a nice guy and all but too much time riding and when I stopped seeing him we went separate ways . I tried to text him back eventually and he never responded I think he blocked me

Ok -- how to say this politely -- was there anything... unusual about his member?

Not that I remember. It wasn't small by any means. Kind of a curve?

I’m not the PP, but one of the other posters about the horse guy I dated. Mine also had a curve/bend. Hmmmm this has to be the same guy. How many straight men can there be in the DMV area that ride.

How long ago was this?

Last fall

Huh. I dated him for a while but way before that

Ah okay. Our thing wasn’t very long. Between him getting around and the time spent riding it wasn’t going to work for me.

Getting around? He wasn’t with me I don’t think

Plus the logic of the afore-mentioned going to bullfights on acid. And yet, it's still a blast.
