How to make my girlfriend stand up?

She actually has some mad boogyboard skills, can do the spins and rolls.

It just gets embarrasing sometimes, especially when I go surfing with mates and she tags along.

How can I make her change to stand-up?

Mate, you shouldn't be embarassed by your girl surfing with you. If she doesn't want to stand, don't make her - just let her enjoy having fun and hanging out with you. She is staying fit, she is into a bit of adventure and you have a common interest. Screw your mates. I bet everyone of 'em would be happy to have a girl that hits the surf. Plus, girl bodyboarders are cute. Everyone knows that. The same can't be said for their male counterparts.

If I'd known it would degenerate to bigoted mocking, I wouldn't have posted the picture.

How is my comment 'bigoted' Simon?

Mocking? Probably.

However, why would you want to 'make' your girlfriend stand up? Would that make you cooler? Don't you think wanting to make her stand up is in itself bigoted? Are you intolerant of her propensity to lie down and enjoy herself riding waves? Because she chooses to boogie board, why is that a source of embarrassment to you?

Mate, lighten up a little and perhaps get her a funboard or something, see how she goes from there.

And if you're going to post pictures of your chick on the net, expect the best and the worst.

I'd be keener to get her to bend over rather than stand up

Pretty ordinary to give the guy shit about his girlfriend, gents.

You wouldn't do it in person, so why do it here?

Chances are that is not his girlfriend, also if she is ,he has already disrespected her by posting her pic on the net.

Shaun,

By any chance, are you bi-polar ???

MMMM Maybe, I'm not sure, could be. Nothing has been diagnosed, but then I never go to the doctor as they are all connected to the government by medicare and I don't want to be micro chipped, cause they can do it now without you even knowing, even if you just sit in the waiting room they can do it. I know cause I read it on the net, you don't feel a thing, they put recording devices and everything in them now.
But the important thing is I am happy and extremely so most of the time, I have seen and met some of normal people in the surf that society wants me to aspire to be like and I don't wish to be like them, I'll make my own rules thank you, but I promise not to break them.

Yes Floyd,my little minx was playing hard to get that day!
But look at the house it looks a treat to after the reno dont you think?.Check out the cloths line I put up for Mrs Spongy's birthday & it doubles as a power line for my wireless.
I know,I spoil that women but how can I resist?

Yes spongebob, I had already noted the improvements you had made to the loveshack, you are obviously a fan of all those renovator shows currently clogging our TVs.

I can understand you would think of Mrs Spongy as a minx standing there in without her teeth just flaunting it for all the neighbourhood to see.

You're a lucky man spongebob you can appreciate Mrs Spongy in all her glory, laughter lines and annoying little habits and do so without wanting to change a thing ... something everyman should learn (good).

you need to think whether you actually want her to stand up. its much better for the legs ie shapely if she keeps all to kicking.

personally i am happy for my wife to stay out of the water and give me some peace

Racist taunts aside (wtf does her being asian have to do with it anyway?), Thanks to ZenZen for the constructive advice. I was probably feeling a little insecure and vindictive at the time of writing, but now I accept that this is how she has her fun. Even though I know she is missing out on alot, that's her loss ;)

Simon, I've re-read every post on this thread and nothing strikes me as being racist (or bigoted) but there certainly was a little old fashioned piss-taking for sure.

Kudos to zenzen for going into bat for you.

However, I'm glad that you acknowledged that you were being a little precious. What were you expecting by posting that pic anyway?

And for the record mate, my wife is Japanese. Lucky for me she has big tits, bad eyesight and low self esteem 'eh?

Was she asian?I didnt notice.Having a Japanese daughter inlaw is making me blind to such things.
But thanks for pointing that out Brian,I mean Simon.

Advice?
Stop licking yourself all over & you wont give yourself fur balls.

Laugh!??! Nearly wet meself! Some all-time banter here, chaps. Many thanks for brightening up an otherwise gloomy morning.

As for the original question: I've found that promising (threatening?)to lay down beside her and do wondrous things with my tongue and other extremities always makes my girl stand up. And, mostly, walk out of the room.

Always happy to help.

Zenagain, or should I say Zenaphobe? BRIAN is a well known euphemism for ASIAN. Type BRIAN (27486) into an sms and the auto-text will spell ASIAN.

Hi Simon, your mobile phone must be different to mine. I typed in 74666329 for simon329 and the predictive text came up 'bonehead'. Go figure?

Re-read my post sausage. I live in ASIA. My wife is JAPANESE.

I've been to China a couple of times, Korea, Thailand, Laos, Singapore. I will be in Taiwan next month. Hated every minute of it, no doubt Taiwan will suck too.

As a footnote, everyone should have their own Asian. They don't come cheap though, but worth the coin if you can get a good one.

By the way Simon, those countries mentioned above, just to enlighten you, are in ASIA.

They are home to millions of Brians.

Well,well Simone nice fur ball.Who said you never learn anything hanging around surf forums.
Now I wouldnt doubt the authority of that fount of knowlage that is the sms auto text.
But I would like to direct you towards the humble Wikipedia.

(Quote)The surname Brian can also sometimes be a French surname; derived from the Old Occitan word brian, meaning "maggot" and used as a nickname.[2]

Now if you will excuse me I have some Jack boots to polish.

The best way to make her standup is to run her over with your board in the surf and when she is spitting out teeth you could explain to her that if she was on her feet she would only have bruised shins, works everytime!
