View Full Version : Guys Talking To You @ The Gym
Flex Mon, August 31st, 2009, 05:27 PM How would you feel about it if you got hit on while you were in the gym? Such as when you were getting a drink, or resting between sets.
I am curious because I am doing a paper on social interaction located at the gym.

Guys hitting on me in the gym? No sir, I wouldn't like it. I would not like it at all. Not one bit.
Such as when you were getting a drink
Nope, not even when getting a drink. In fact, as refreshing as getting a nice drink of water can be, I'd wager to say that it would be most unpleasant even when getting a drink.
or resting between sets.
hmmm....resting between sets is a different story. Lemme think about that one and post back in a bit.
EDIT: After some deep cogitation and hours of careful ratiocination, I must conclude that I wouldn't like it even when resting between sets. No sir, I wouldn't like it one bit.

GreaseVeteran Tue, September 1st, 2009, 01:31 AM Are you asking the guys or the girls here?
Is this specifically about people using the gym as a meat-market-watering-hole-type deal or about people bothering people while they're in their personal space?
:lol:
EDIT: ummmm nevermind, I just scrolled up and realized that this is the "Female Health & Fitness" forum....excuse me
Tigs33 Tue, September 1st, 2009, 05:42 PM Well I wouldn't be too happy if it happened to me. I am at the gym to do my workout not get a date. Also I hate being interupted when I do my workout even when I am resting, so I always have my ipod on and turned up loud.
A few of the guys at the gym will smile and say hello and one particular member will have a quick chat (he gave me some lifting tips a while back)
But I do think a lot of the guys find me too intimidating/aloof to even say hello let alone anything else :neener:

spatzcat_11 Thu, September 3rd, 2009, 03:08 PM It would depend on the pick up line.
$tephanie Sat, September 5th, 2009, 02:43 PM I know I wouldn't like it. Like someone mentioned here, you're there to get a workout, not a date. It's one thing to say hi and stuff but, to actually like.. get straight up hit on while working out? That would make me feel very awkward and that I'm being watched.
I vote... that I wouldn't like it.
Catalyst Mon, September 14th, 2009, 05:28 PM I'm a guy, but I feel the same way. I don't mind girls looking but I'm not there to meet someone and I growl if they get too chatty. I don't particularly want to chit chat or compare with the guys, either. I try not to be rude but I have a small window of time and a goal, and I want to stick to it.
FreePrince Wed, September 30th, 2009, 11:23 AM Being hit on is one thing but i think some girls get paranoid about it to the point of being rude. Ive seen so many times that if a guy takes a cardio machine next to or behind a girl working out, she almost immediately gets off it. You know sometimes it does get crowded in there!
I think its very easy to tell who is there genuinely to get a work out and who is there to just show off and screw around.
