I started climbing about a year ago, and got crazy into it. I met a good group of people that helped teach me the ropes and all (pun intended). When my boyfriend and I met, I wasn't sure if he'd even be interested in trying it out, so I didn't press him. When he first expressed interest in giving it a shot, I was over-the-moon excited.
About two months ago, he (begrudgingly) agreed to go outdoor climbing for the first time. He was not exactly thrilled about the prospect of not having a soft gym floor to catch falls. But he tagged along anyway, because he knew I really wanted him to try it out and he cares deeply about me. Needless to say, he kicked ass.
It's such a passion for me and it's freaking amazing to have your significant other appreciate it too.
So now, we climb together. He's the best climbing partner and belay buddy I could ever ask for.

As a non-native speaker, I always appreciate grammar-Nazis to alleviate my self-doubt.

It's because people had "my friends and I" beat into their heads so hard without being told what they actually did wrong.

I'd love being told why, though

"I" as subject, "me" as object. If in doubt, remove the other person and see what sounds right. Always place yourself last.

You better keep him. Trying to do that in the gym? Meh. But he agreed to try it on actually cliffs because of how much you care for it 1/2
xXBEARacudaXx
Now he has some balls and a whole LOTTA love for you
