I was very sporty until I discovered boys (way too early, probably due to my stupid hormones!). I was 13 with a much older boyfriend (by 10 years) and suddenly pulled out of sports because I was much too embarrassed to change in front of my friends. I all of a sudden (thanks to the boyfriend who ended up being my ex-husband), I became very self-conscious of my body (ex was always happy to point out my 'faults'). Not to mention the 'love-bites' I was trying to hide!
The PE teacher was most annoyed with me as I was fast (as in speed
) and good at most sports. She was gutted I'd dropped out of teams and couldn't understand it. I can't now but I was young and very stupid.
