Dumped a girlfriend because she's a bad diver - Scuba Forum

I just wanted to know if I'm the only guy here thats dumped a girlfriend because she screwed up dives?

I had a girlfriend that I had to rescue on one dive and she just decieded to head back to shore on another dive with out telling me or the other two divers we were with. We looked for her for 10 minutes before we saw her come up on shore. Oh and she also lost my dive knife and a mask. She didn't have any gear so I was always borrowing it from friends so she could go with us and then something would happen to it. Has this happened any of you? Any suggestions other then don't dive with someone I'm dating?

Never happened to me, but I would have dumped her too...not to be harsh or anything, lol. That stuff is expensive...

I'm going to need toknow if she owns her own boat and see pictures of the boat before I can answer the poll.

I would love it if I could get my wife to dive even if that meant that I had to take a lot of extra time getting her to be where she was comfortable with diving.

Did she hate diving? Might as well get that out the way early on.

Having a boat and good looks is just icing on the cake. I say if she dives at all, she's a keeper. My wife not only doesn't dive, she hates diving. Our vacations are fun, let me tell ya. I could always be worse.

My wife is afraid of the water. She often calls herself a diving widow because I love diving so much.

No boat I don't think she likes to dive oh and she almost killed us when I had to save her. We ened up getting back to shore over about 100ft of coral as the waves pulled both of us acrossed it. I guess I don't have to worry about the married part yet. I'm hoping to settle down with some one that likes to dive as much as I do.
