I HAVENT TOLD THE GIRL, BUT A REALLY CLOSE MALE FRIEND OF MINE ALMOST DIED AND HE FREAKED OUT WHEN HE FOUND OUT I WAS JUICING. IF I WAS YOU, I WOULDNT TELL HER. UNLESS YOUR GOING TO MARRY HER. ------------------ I am Conan, the Ironbarbarian back from the deep dark hell! | ||

I prepped her 1 year in advance, "I thinking about doing it" she started crying and I said "well give me 6 months to start researching and Ill make the decision" she trusts me and I had already done the research and 3 cycles to boot lol but after 4 months or so and showing her the propaganda and how the Media portrays it, how the dr.s at one point a few years ago were saying AAS DONT BUILD MUSCLE, after showing her all that and safe cycles theory she had no choice but to accept it. After seeing a 20/20 type special on it that convinced her, you know the one that attempted to show how Anabolic Steroids is a gateway drug to heroin b/c of the needles???! LOL She was laughing her ass off and I hadn't even (as far as she knew) started the stuff. They are most worried about your HEALTH, Mental/Emotional Stability, and stigma. So take each one point by point and she will not have any reason not to trust you. The legality issue might be cause for concern: then you get into the "just b/c they made it a law, doesn't make it morally/ethically right." ------------------ For a good time click here: Search and Profiles (300Kleens Board) | ||

I just came out and told my girlfriend....She gives me my injections now. I guess I have to be straight up with people, I hate being unhonest about anything. If yoiu can't be honest about shit with your girl then whats the point. If she does not like somthing you do then she will either get over it and except you or she is not the one for you. Just my $.02 | ||

Excellent point Fozy about honesty - I know some of the bros have to hide it from their girls - I feel for them it must be hard as hell. On a side note: my girl gave me a few shots and she sucked, she actually contaminated a bottle of deca a while back - got a few infections before I figured it out. ahhh gotta love em.. ------------------ For a good time click here: Search and Profiles (300Kleens Board) | ||

Well I agree with Iron ,If your going to marry her then tell her but if you have a shaky relationship then the first time she gets mad or you break and sees you with another lady friend well just keep in mind this is illegal,women do some spiteful things sometimes. | ||

I got interested in juicing right after I got married. I brought the subject up to my wife and she totally flipped. She started saying shit like if you do that we are over. She sounded pretty serious, although I think if she ever found out she would just be pissed and give me a guilt trip for a while then get over it. But still, I don't want to chance it, so I keep it on the down low. She has asked me if I am on steroids a couple times but I just deny it and say it's these vitamins I'm taking, while I pop my "vitamins" right in front of her, hehe. Pretty pink vitamins. ------------------ | ||

Slopian, sorry tp here about the infection. I would not let her actually load the syringe, I do all the leg work she just points and shoots. Not that she is not intelligent enough to do everything but the thought of infection scares the sh*t out of me. I am no docter but at least I sit here and read all day and have somewhat of a good idea of what I am doing. I just tell her " upper outer, and pull back" | ||

I took the honest approach with my wife (which was good and bad) The bad is she blames everything on my AS use. The good is, I don't have to hide it from her. (which is almost impossible if you live together) I say, if she doesn't live with you, to not tell her. Just Hacker's 2 cents | ||

I just got round to telling my gf I was starting a cycle of mild anabolics, explained the reasons behind my motivation...she asked me whether this would affect my balls in a way that we would no longer be able to have sex or kids or something - when she was satisfied that I had researched it and that there did not seem to be much of a danger, she just accepted it - She told me she was glad I did not cover this up - . But then again I know I ll never juice as much as some of you guys, lol... | ||

TEST007 My girl asked after we were going out for a couple of months and well she wasnt happy about it. So i quit mid cycle and stayed off for a month. She said that she didn't like how edgy i was. She said that she wanted me to be the person she fell in love with when we first met, and i said the person you fell in love was a person on roids. So know shes knows i use them and now she wants to try them. Go figure. Thats a women. Will all the men give me an Amen!! | ||

i date a lot of women mostly older and at some point it comes up in conversation and I just give them a blunt YES. Its usually a response like i figured so nothing really negative from them. I'm pretty open about it and i think the apreciate the honesty. ------------------  | ||

My girlfriend is a nurse, so I know she would be good at giving me injections. But I'm sure she would give me shit about how bad it is for me. But the truth is,,, the people who tell you how bad it is are only telling you that because they know absolutely nothing about AS. They only know from what they hear in the media, etc. The people who know are the people who do research to find out the truth. I'm not sure if I'm going to tell her or not. Maybe I'll blame my gains on prohormones or creatine. Seeing how she knows nothing about bodybuilding and supplements. But would still like to be honest with her. As was said before in another post. Being bluntly honest is the best way to go. I'm sure they won't expect you to tell the truth,,, | ||

I told my wife..... "What would you think if I wanted to do steriods" she wanted to know why and I told her and after about an hour of thinking about it (She knows I research everything to death) she said "As long as you don't become an As*H*le" She was only mad when she found out that I had aready taken 2 cycles and was in the middle of another. She said that I wasn't honest with her. | ||

I just simply told my girlfriend that I was thinking about doing it. (I worked it in slowly.) A few weeks later I told her that I wanted to do something mild. Something that would give me little or no sides like primo. Then I showed her all the info from the web on primo and deca. I told her that's what doing and very little of it. like 100mgs of primo and 200 of deca a week. Of course that's not what I had done, was doing and was going to do!!! She still bothers me sometimes about it, can you believe that? However, never with any serious threats!! | ||

I just started my first cycle. I have been prepping her or a while now with the �supplements�. She is into fitness big time also, and has been using up all my creatine and protein shakes the last few weeks. I am just waiting because I know she wouldn�t understand �sust flu� and freak if I got sick right after I started injecting myself. | ||

I didn't tell my girlfriend about my first cycle a whie back and then a friend told her when she asked. I mean she was cool about it but she seemed so worried about my health, which I can respect. However, I know she doesn't want me to use them again. The only problem ids I am now on my second cycle and i haven't told her yet and don't know if I will. Good post bros! Mass Monster | ||

Like Conan said, unless it's a very serious relationship, don't tell her. THE IMPORTANT PART: If it is, then sit her down sometime and start by explaining the way you feel for her and respect her goals. Then, start by stating your goals, whatever they may be. After that, say something like, "To obtain these goals, I have been using steroids." Before she throws a fit, tell her some of the benefits, and close by saying, "I love you, and I respect your goals. If we have a future together, I pray you respect mine." If your GF really cares for you, she will be concerned...hell, we are concerned about our own health, so your sig other will be, too. That's cool. It shows a lot of love and respect if they worry about you, but encourage you to reach your goals. If she trys to be controlling, then it's an indication she would be controlling if you get married...find someone else. ------------------ | ||

I came right out and told my wife a few months before I started, to get her properly prepared. If you are a short tempered fella to begin with, most women will not be wanting to see ya on gear, not because of factual evidence, rather because of all the bullshit that has been scattered throughout the media. It didn't hurt that I had already been getting epidural steroids injected into my back for pain for a few years....I pretty much said it was the same shit, just using a different route. | ||

my girlfriend has been shooting me for the last three years and she loves being a part of it. i guess she likes the fact that it makes me happy and if im happy shes happy. on holidays and birthdays she knows exactly what to get me and how much...thats the benifits of letting her be involved. she is also quite educated on the matter as well, she knows what the difference between most products and what most of them do...ISNT SHE THE BEST | ||

I'm gonna pile on to the consensus opinion. Don't tell her unless you are practically married. You don't tell her every time you take a dump or spank the monkey...there are some things that can remain personal for a while. I wouldn't lie to her, though if she asks. | ||

I say go ahead and do 1000mg sus a week, 100mg Injectable anadrol and 2-3 amps parabolan a day. You'll gain about 100lbs of muscle and when the mags call you, she'll get the idea that it is a possibility. You'll do seminars and guest posings and some TV shows. You'll have endorsements and trophys from the contests. You'll be the man and she wouldn't leave you then. Dude, you know her best. My first wife threatened me imeediately and the second wife just says she wants to know. Good luck bud. | ||

Just go ahead and tell her. If she doesn't want to stay with you just because you use AS, screw her. Find another girlfriend that will let you live you life the way you want to. How much can you have in common if you have to hide things like that from her... ------------------ | ||

I've mentioned to my wife about trying cytomel or clen and she freaked. Even printed out a whole list of steroid profiles and had her read about the clen and T3. Her whole problem with it was the legal shit. I'm on my second cycle now and she doesnt know but I'm going to tell her after this one is over. Bad way to look at it but what is she going to do? Alot of people look at AAS and frown b/c of the needles and shooting yourself but at least you're trying to build a better body, that's the approach I'm going to take with my wife. Yeah I know i shoulda been honest about it blah blah blah but wtf? Oh well, she'll just have to accept it. | ||

Hard for me to think women would leave a man that uses juice just cause of the juice! I mean there are a LOT worse bad habits you can have - looking great is not one of them. What kind of a woman do you want - I mean what if you have kids with problems - will she freak out, or support you and the family for the long haul. Just quit dating shallow women. Finally told my hubby I used lightly and he says it is cool as long as I dont get too far off base emotionally or physically. He tells me when I am getting out on a limb and need more time with the kids or him and out of the gym. Next time your at the beach with your gf/wife, just point out some big fat guy and ask her if that is what she wants to be with on her 25th anniversary.

I did what slopain did, I actually posted my story a while back....but to make a long story short, I told her I was thinking about it....this was after a few cycles. She was ok with it, as long as it didn't change me. She though I was going to have roid rage or some shit. When she found out I was the same old me...she didn't mind. | ||

I'm pretty much set, I started a clen and T3 cycle and threw in Xenadrine and after I dropped ten lbs she started using it as well.rotf. But before that she did what alot of women try to do, blame any bad mood I had or ache or pain on the pills. A few weeks ago after she'd been using my T3 and clen and Xenadrine, I told her that I was gonna be taking testosterone shots and she'd really like the side affects. Rotf. Then I asked her if she'd give me my shots and she said Hell no you're not doing that. But even though she's a total goody goody I'm breaking her in on the idea. | ||

tell no one !, People don't understand and will discount your a$$ busting workouts and dedication. The girl friend will blame every little thing on your cycle, you will not be able to say anything to her even if she is being a b!tch that day and you are cool ! They think use a a little AS and lay in bed and grow. | ||

My opinion is.. don't ask/don't tell. As long as she doesn't ask don't tell her. The current girl im dating asked, so I told her, then she told her parents, don't ask me why. Her parents think I'm some kind of freak now. They say they don't feel comfortable with her hanging out with me because they know how unpredictable people that use steroids are. LOL. |
