In reply to: this reminded me of something I've been kicking around my head for a while - what would you say that climb is rated where the Marine is free-soloing? you know the one.
bonus points for being hell. i don't think it's fair to rate since the marine is, of course, magical. he clearly transforms into a clean cut stud in a snazzy uniform at the end. and where the hell did that sword come from? i've never climbed (free solo or otherwise) and got a sword at the end. but i'm also not very good.
has anyone here ever free soloed something hard enough that they got a uniform and sword at the end...only to realize they were actually hired guns for a military larger than the next 20 largest militaries in the world? just wondering

In reply to: In reply to: In reply to: In reply to: I just can't recall hearing stories about women going this route. But I guess you're not alone, right? I'll bite - and take the slap on the back of the head; That's probably because most women don't have to deal with the frustrating vagaries of a female partner 8^) Truth it is you speak young Skywalker! So, have you guys switched teams yet or started a support group?
Nope, but if you switched teams, then maybe you might take up soloing :wink:

Go high ball bouldering above your best send when you feel suicidal that way when you take the fall you’ll really feel dumb in the sitting in a cast. It sounded like a control issue not a soloing thing. The fear is the point, His and to make her feel it too. It is hard to love and live with a woman at the same time. Most of us (men) are trying to find are grace that why we climb in the first place. Family will give it to you but it is a hell of a lot harder than climbing at any level.

Hmm... my SO typically gets really pissed after I free-solo, rather than before.
