If a guy effectively lets me know his workout is more important than me from the get-go, he's just not the guy for me.
I've read other posts by you WW and usually agree with you, but I think you chose your words here poorly. Choosing not to break a training schedule is not a valuation of you. Nor are you necessarily competing with a person's workout schedule. I think that your personal example (the professor who wanted to meet at 7:00 instead of 5:00) is a bit different than the OP. Obviously your professor friend could have scheduled a different day or chosen to miss that one day of training. The OP's situation was much much different.

The girlfriend seemed psychotically insecure and afraid that she would lose her bf after he got into shape.

"compulsive" ?
Compulsive as in:
Like I said, this is why I don't try to defend my hobbies. So far, WW has tried to sneer at people who value punctuality and schedule with the words "compulsive", "strict", "regimented", and "military precision" in another thread. (As if these are bad things...) What does this accomplish? Am I supposed to realize the error of my ways? That ain't gonna happen.

As I've written in some of the profile feedback threads, I expect my matches to be passionate about something. And I define "passionate" to mean that it just might take priority over "me" at times.
