Before starting a relationship with a synchro athlete is necessary you read these pointers.
1.- They know when training starts, but never when it ends. (And no, she can’t miss practice)
– It doesn’t matter is you miss one day of training.
-….
2.- Chlorine is her natural essence (She doesn’t smell funny).
3.- Her body will always have some sun-marks (if she trains outdoor) because of her swimsuit, nose clips and cap. (And she doesn’t care).
4.- Is important you know the competition dates, which you can’t miss, even if there are birthdays, baptisms, and/or weddings (even her own).
5.- You need to know how to listen the complaints about things you don’t understand and surely you won’t ever understand, but you still have to listen.
6.- A shower after the competition can last up to an hour and half depending on the level of gelatin left after swimming.
Time Machine
I came in at 7 I get out after 5 minutes and its already 7:30.
7.- You need to know the difference between Solo, Duet, Team and Combo.
8.- Patience, LOTS of patience before, during and after the competition, in training period and vacations, Christmas, new year’s, holidays, birthdays and all Sundays included.
9.- The time she is barefoot she would walk on her toes.
10.- If you invite her to eat, you can expect it won’t be cheap, since she is always hungry.
11.- Parties end early, remember … morning training.
– You can’t leave, it’s not even midnight.
– I can’t stay, I have morning training.
12.- My dream in life is not necessarily to have the best wedding at the beach, more so is something like representing my country at the Olympic Games.
- The rings most girls want.
- The rings most boys want.
- The rings I want.
13.- You thought it would only be 10 things to pay attention to? – oh, baby!
14.- After all, having a synchro girlfriend is the best thing that can happen in your life, because these athletes are the most caring, lovely, corny, creative and beautiful girlfriends that you will ever have.
