Driftcoast-<P>I can't tell you how happy I am for you that you ditched the b1tch.<P>That wasn't about surfing. It was about her being a loser and a user.<P>She wanted a surfer, but then her selfish desires to have money without working for it herself, and "pampering", whatever that means, overtook her. Sounds like a truly icky person, once you got beneath the surface.<P>It's interesting that, after women struggled for centuries for the right to have an identity, fulfillment that wasn't vicariously attained through a man, so many seem to want to enslave men in the same way. Humans suck, I guess.<P>All the best to you and your future!

Don't settle for anyone less than a surfer, then you can go surf together and she'll probably care more about surfing with you than the aptly termed "trappings" of success. It's well worth the wait when you find that person.
Wow - all the way from 2002. Time Flies! Back then I was 42 and had a wife, a 4 year old and an 8 year old at home. Now, unlike me, they've both graduated college and are doing well at 25 and 29 years old. I still have the same wife at home and am grateful to have her but no more kids at home for the last two years. Miss having the kids around sometimes but my wife and I are very happy just being together.
your professor is 100% correct, grow out of surfing now and encourage everyone you know to also grow out of surfing immeadiately.
Please make the most of your youthful years by engaging in extensive surfing. Once you reach the age of approximately 35, you can then fully devote yourself to pursuing a prosperous career.
You broke the first rule of surfing.
No one needs to know you surf.
No good can come of it.
Familiarity breeds contempt.

Dragged this up because of relevance.
I remember the time when it 1st came out.... 2 years before moving here.
I thought it a ridiculous idea then, and am living it right now with my neck vertebrae. The time is coming very soon (it may have already passed and gone) when I seriously need to look into fixing it; and at 58,after what it took to get back into surfing shape post lumbar fusion, I just don't know that I care to even bother.... to in the end come back to no etiquette crowds, at maybe 60-62?
Meh, already started selling my quiver off.
Also, looking to finish the garden here, cause our time in the islands is limited. No sense living on a dust covered rock without most basic services to not surf.... I can not surf somewhere with services and conveniences just as well... maybe even better.

Clearly you should have dropped that professor's course and given him the worst on-line rating possible and a scathing written critique of his teaching on "Rate My Professor".
Those are the perfect classes to order pizza to.
I grew up surfing, started in Jr High. Been surfing ever since and I’m almost 50. I spent a bunch of years in the service and was able to surf all over the place. Now I have a job (in the environmental/ PH field). I work from home a couple days a week and I surf before I log in.
There is no reason to grow up!!

My father wasn't real happy with my focus on surfing in my teens. He'd ask me, "How long do you think you can keep up this surfing thing?" I remember telling him "At least until I'm 50" at the time thinking 50 was ancient. LOL!!! I'm 54 now and still at it and still haven't given up and taken up the crutches of riding a longboard.

Judging from the user names a lot of people grow out of the erBB. What the hell are we still doing here?
i am gettin there
2 weeks of flatness, not bothering to even try to surf
u get fatter, surfing stops being part of the daily routine
when there is waves its stupidly crowded, even at the C level spots i used to surf alone at dawn
my only option is crappy closeouts if i want to avoid people. crowds get worse each year, soon even closeouts will be packed.
limited options to surf around here, and fuuuuck is it expensive
the quitting surfing and moving inland seems inevitable
