    please expand on the my wife and our girlfriend aspect of this story…

    My wife and I are both in love with another woman. If it was legal, the three of us would all be married. The kids I have with my wife and the kids I have with our gf view each other as siblings, and recognize all three of us as their parents.

    You really eat more than them combined?

    Yes, a large athletic man eats more than two small mostly sedentary women. I also weigh more than the two of them combined. If I ate much less than I do, I’d be losing mass. Sometimes I eat even more than 3800 calories a day, but that’s in my bulk phases. 3800 is just my maintenance number.

    Then again, my breakfast this morning was two big cups of coffee and a single clementine.

    Damn homie, I honestly love that for you. No sarcasm, no cap. But I need to have what amounts to a full English every morning. And one clementine would honestly just piss me off. I’ve had 6 blood oranges today, and it’s not even 4pm yet. I’ll likely have 2-3 more today, plus a steak sandwich.

    I think 7 miles is my personal best for distance

    7 miles is a respectable distance, you’re doing great. I just chose 6 a day because then I can plan out my times better, and my dogs love it.

    I love how different 2 humans can be.

    Have you eaten Americanized “Chinese” food? I eat it every on every last Tuesday of the month. I order two meals for myself every time, because without fail, I will be hungry again within less than 2 hours. Yesterday (4/28/2026), I had a pint of General Tso’s Chicken with a pint of beef lo mein. That’s an entire quart of food. If I ate a quart of spag bol for my lunch, I’d be done for the night. I’d be asleep. But after my big ol’ “Chinese” lunch, I was hungry ~90 minutes later, so I ate my pint of Szechuan Chicken and my pint of pork fried rice. Wonton soup was also involved. Yes, I added the fried noodles.

    And even after that, I got a large pizza (pepperoni, pineapple, and extra cheese) at 10:30pm, just to cover the late night munchies. I only ate 4 slices out of 8, so I had some left for breakfast today. The stuff we sell as “Chinese food” in the USA is not very filling.

    YMMV, I am a large man, and I am very active. I’m 6’4", I lift weights, and I run 6 miles a day. My TDEE is ~3800 calories. If you’re one of those folks who only need 1200-1600 calories a day, a simple lunch from the “Chinese” spot would be a lot of food for you. My wife is small, and she can easily live off 1600-1800 calories a day. Our gf is tiny and lives off of 1200 calories a day most days. A “splurge” day for her is 1500-1600 calories.

    Homecoming is way more than a “school dance”. We have entire tailgating parties before the homecoming football game. There’s literally a parade. I was on my High School’s football team over 30 years ago, and I go to the homecoming game most years to cheer on the team, enjoy a ton of good BBQ, and get sloppy drunk at the same stadium where I used to play. It’s one Hell of a good time. The dance is like 10% of the event.
