Peds and dating

[thecptnmorgan]

for the most part it seems to be a bit of an older crowd here but how to you guys approach your usage and the dating scene. Over the past year I’ve been with a few different women and they all have commented about my body and how great I look. One even saying I was a specimen which maybe the best compliment I have ever received lol i typically just stick to test so it’s not like it’s super obvious I’m taking anything.
As of late I feel like I’ve started to develop a bit of an imposter syndrome. I’ve started to see someone new and I’m wondering if I should confess what’s going on before things get super serious

Someone you're seeing casually with no intention of taking things further? They don't need to know.

Someone with potential? Absolutely needs to know.

It doesn't have to be a big deal; what're those things in your drawer babe? Oh, those are...

That easy. Once you break them during sex they won't care.

I’ve started to see someone new and I’m wondering if I should confess

bro this makes no sense, its your life, your hormone levels have nthing to do with anyone else,
it sounds like you have low self esteem and want approval from a woman by rattling off all your percieved faults , because you dont feel good enough for her.

"ok i take steroids... do you rlly still like me?... oh and I sometimes have wicked smelly shits and i stole a candybar once in 10th grade"

this is a new mentality i see in young men and its part of the demoralization in the west, its nt your fault for thinking this way.

theres plenty of shit that makes her feel insecure and she doesn't feel compelled to "confess" to you or feel guilty about it

Not so much an insecure thing. I know I’m still showing up week in and week out and putting in the work but no doubt about it we ( unless you actually are getting it from a clinic legitimately) are doing “drugs” and jabbing ourselves with needles several times a week

To early to tell at this point but we’re definitely into each other

if you didn't feel insecure about the gear or about yourself you wouldn't want to get ahead of it and get approval.

I’m not looking for approval. I’m going to keep doing me regardless, like I said I know I put the work in. Just curious how people deal with the situation when it comes to potential partners

In my opinion it's obvious you don't have to tell anything when you're having some casual sex with girls but if you're serious about commiting to a relationship the sooner you tell it the better you'll feel.

How much info you're gonna share it's up to you, but me personally there's no chance i could hide it from my GF, i want to be free inside my own house and not keeping all the stuff in a vault. When i want to order stuff, or read MESO i want to do it while i'm chilling in home in my PC and not go outside "for a walk" and do it from my phone.

Also doing labs, getting the labs, going to pharmacy often and buying all the ancillaries, measure my blood pressure sometimes 2 times a day or many other guys measuring their blood glucose 4-5 times a day, how TF are you going to hide it?

You said "dating" and this could mean a few different things, so if it's just a 1-2-5 times sex and goodbye then obviously don't tell it, if you're dating with the same girl for a month or two and you see there's not many chances you'll be together in the future, maybe hold it for a while. If you're excited though and things go well, the sooner you tell it the best for both of you.

Being 100% honest with a person you want to have in your life never fails and if it does, then that person is not for you.

I personally disagree. If i was dating a girl messing with illegal stuff like heavy rec drugs for example, i'd like to know before i commit to something more serious than a hookup.

All this "my body my choice" thing, i can hear it, if someone is alone and no other person relies on him/her emotionally.

i wouldn't compare steroids to heavy rec drugs

No one of "us" would, for the normies (and the law) it looks pretty similar if not the same.

i think this is outdated, within the past 5 years steroid awareness has exploded because of instagram. its just not taboo anymore when you have 20 year old women showing off their anavar bodies and every male with money over 40 is talking about how great testosterone is.

 

[WhereIsTracy]

If it comes up, honestly is usually a good policy

If she doesn’t bring it up, you might just be doing yourself more harm than good if you tell her too early.

 

[lukiss96]

Be careful who you're being honest with, it can bite back in the ass...

First post (#2 in this thread) is very good answer.

With that being said, I too will have to man up and be honest with someone soon, I guess.

 

[1Megaman]

Absolutely not tell her, it’s just causal and you don’t really know her. If you tell her and break up and she doesn’t want to who know who she could tell.

Tell that to the prosecutor, DA. Lol, j/k.

Hope we actually get there.

 

[twreck555]

I agree 100% that caution is advised. I would wait to tell her until you know her a little better. Then and only then you can tell her that you take testosterone. No need to say 'steroids', and no need to volunteer the fact that its UGL. just tell her you take testostetone. Lots of people do. No big deal.

I'm just on Testosterone cuz of medical reasons I rly need to. Quite good.

 

[Grey Spartan]

If she asks you, tell her your on TRT. DO NOT tell her "I buy underground illegal drugs from the internet"

Come on, now. Don't ever tell someone you're dating anything you wouldn't want the whole world to know about. It doesn't matter if you think "she's the one." Until she really is the one, give her as little dirt as you possibly can.
It's not just a woman thing. That goes for anyone who is dating anyone.

All it takes it for you to break up and she tells her best friend "yeah, we just couldn't communicate. It would have been easier if he didn't have roid rage" and the friend says "...his WHAT?! omg" and then it's all over for you. Next thing you know, her friend is telling everyone else in the friend circle and so on and so forth. Then your mom calls you to ask why the women at her quilting club are asking strange questions.
Luckily for me I don't know this from personal experience but we've all watched scenarios like this play out repeatedly over the years to our buddies and buddies of buddies. We know better.
Keep your shit to yourself.
My opinion.

Sharing that info is secondary to the far more serious considerations of a serious relationship. By the time you would get around to sharing that info, you should already know very well if you should or not.
