I changed the wording and forgot to delete a word. It should read, "Even so, the answers you asked for have been presented...". I hope that clears things up for you; I know these things can be tricky for some people.

Now, I know you are a troll, but you cannot expect me to believe that your dishwasher loads itself. What about vacuuming the floors? What about making sandwiches?

I love my hands rough, it helps me to climb better. My palms are somewhat softer than my fingers. And I like to use Climb On cream afterward a day of climbing. And I am a girl...and guys dig a girl who can climb hard.

He would complain how rough my hands were sometimes. Anyway, before I graduated I broke up with him and then went on a roadtrip. On said trip I met this guy who I shacked up with. We laughed at my old boyfriend. When we first arrived at J-Tree I ripped my hands to shreds. He said I should take a photo and send it to the ex (which I never did, the ex wasn't a bad guy, just bad for me). I'm now married to the guy I met on that road trip. I think he loves me more for my rough hands.

You took the words out of my mouth. Climber guys generally do not find a girl with climber hands (and body) repulsive. In fact, the opposite... Sepulker-- your bf's hands are not a problem for you during sex, right? So why would your hands be a problem? or does he not touch you with HIS calused hands? Or are his hands not calused-- hece he isn't a climber himself? A JT/Climb-On/badger balm/Burt's bee-type skin lotion after climbing keeps the hands reasonably soft and in my experience does not interfere with sexual activities in any way. And of course you don't climb with your mouth... using it occasionally to hold the rope while clipping does not develop any lip caluses, so you are quite safe there.

sepulker wrote: I just figured maybe someone would be helpful. With respect, I suspect that the reason you're not feeling very helped is that you've shown no interest in participating in the process of looking at your assumptions and requirements. Instead, you got prickly when people followed up with questions. This makes you nearly impossible to help and lots of fun to jerk around. It's as though you asked how to be fit and healthy, 'but without having to be sweaty or gross or have to exercise or eat vegetables'- when the question doesn't make sense, that's a fairly clear signal that the wrong question has been asked, or that in order to help, it's necessary to better understand what your requirements and assumptions really are. Until then, all that's possible is... well, this thread.
sepulker wrote: He wants to help me fix my back problems and he is skilled at bouldering so why should i pay for yoga? I have no doubt he wants to help, but skill at bouldering does not mean skill at physical therapy. If you want PT, you should talk to someone knowledgeable about that, and work out something appropriate for your injury. (that would also apply, btw, to any activity- yoga included). If you're seriously open to suggestions, don't worry about your hands, they and you will be fine. Talk to a physical therapist before doing physical therapy. Climb to have fun.

There's the problem. Stop using the dishwasher and do the dishes by hand. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzmTtusvjR4 "Softens hands while you do the dishes!" edited to make clicky.
