Do breakups have effect on Martial Arts

Girls can screw everything up. They don’t even need to train to defeat your Kung Fu. Women are proof that God has a sense of humour, and also that He’s simultaneously cruel.

Train. Train your ass off. Don’t let one thing get mixed up with the other.

ps … I’m truly not bitter :slight_smile: women are my favourite passtime.

These suggestions to beat on a bag or to ignore chi gung because you might have to deal with the inner turmoil are absolutely horrible. Wearing yourself out or otherwise avoiding an issue until it “doesn’t bother you anymore” is the worst step you can take. Any deep emotional issue needs to be dealt with as it is occurring or it will come back later in life in one form or another. Generally, you will want to make yourself acutely aware of everything that happened to lead to the breakup. Replay the ending in your head until your mind, body, and spirit say “I must have another purpose, i need to get going to find out what that is.”

You’ll find your strength again though.

all these suggestions are well and good but we must remember that eveyrone handles emotional issues differently. What works for one may not work for the other. I do however agree that when a break up occurs careful self-examination needs to take place. If we find that the fault is within us we apologize to the affected party and move forward. If the fault is within the other party we forgive them using our compassion and move forward.
In any case we must move forward and keep a positive outlook.

I’m going through it so I know it’s not easy. I broke up with the love of my life in October later I realized I made a mistake breaking up with her and when I asked her for a second chance she more or less told me f.k U! Now I’m taking advantage of being single and doing all of the things I couldn’t when I was with her. I’m also using this time to correct all the behaviours that led to our problems. Even if I don’t get back with her I won’t make the same mistakes again.

:slight_smile: Live and learn.
