    Looks like the consensus is: Flirt away, Romeo!

    When I went to the gym I was all business. I put on my headphones and zoned out. I didn't hit on females at the gym. If I saw an attractive lady I'd think good for her keep it up. Maybe I'll see her out and about then hit on her but, not when I'm doing my thing. I did always get guys asking me about my routine,,,,,gawd I hated that. I'm there to train not have social hour

    I'm pretty much the same. The gym is probably the one place I wouldn't hit on a woman along with my place of employment no matter how beautiful they were. The common thread: I am there to work (or workout as the case maybe ;)

    I especially don't like it when female trainers try to talk to me. Mostly because no matter how friendly it always comes across as a sales pitch and frankly I probably know more than they do...

    I'm taken, so I'm not looking when I'm at the gym. But if I were single...

    Depends. I hate when guys try to talk to me when I'm trying to focus on breathing and not dying. Break my focus, then I'm irritated, not flattered.

    An older guy waited til I was done with the machine I was on to tell me "I had it going on." that was flattering because he just wanted to let me know and moved on so I could get back to work.

    If I saw someone almost every day and they made a point of saying "Hello" and remembered my name then short chats that don't extend my gym time is fine. If we clicked, then things could build from there. Grabbing a Jamba Juice or a bite to eat, etc.

    Just don't only come talk to me when I'm bent over and my rear is in the air or when I'm on that machine that basically makes me spread my legs to work my inner thighs ... tacky.

    I've been hit on a few times at the gym over the last year. It's just weird. I'm so focused on my workout that I don't really notice until the guy is walking up to me to talk to me.

    I'd say it's a no-no and awkward if you know she's bustin' *kitten* on the treadmill or concentrating on lifting. I guess it's okay if she's obviously not focused on her workouts.

    i think it's hot, if the guy is hot. The guy who works at the gym used to talk to me a lot, and he was SO hot omggg. LOVED IT. It was really flattering actually. He would always ask about my running and comment on how good I was at running lol... but I did have a boyfriend... i still enjoyed the compliments! He was just being a nice guy... I don't know if I would consider that being hit on, but some women on here probably woulddd....

    He'd just hop on the mill with me and run for a bit and talk. Not really a big deal! haha. some people get majorly creeped out!!

    I've been a member of my gym for 11 years now. They call me the "social butterfly"..lol..I tend to yap a lot before I work out. I have lot of male friends at the gym. But it's a boost of confidence when I do. Although I'm taken. Just makes me feel good.

    I would find it flattering, so long as they got the hint if I weren't interested and allowed me to finish my work out. I hate it when a guy hits on you, and you are polite back, and then they don't leave you alone. Some men are TOO persistent.

    Hell Yeah!!! My sentiments as well. I flirt here or there def did not hurt anyone, it can help boost flagging esteem and make you want to work out more and harder!

    If I was hit on at the gym, which I hope not at the moment cos the time I go there is when the oldies go (LOL), I would be so flattered and glad that I am finally getting my old, sexy, wantable self back!! :happy:

    It's flattering. I met a very good friend of mine in the gym. We dated, it didn't work out, but we are friends till this day.

    It would be flattering to me if it's in a public Gym...but too bad, I only go to women's gym :P I feel shy to even move when I see guys around. LOL

    I don't get hit on at the gym. Apparently I am "intimidating".... so I've been told. :huh:

    Same here, sort of. This actually happens everywhere, not just at the gym.

    But either way, no I don't mind. I'd be completely flattered, and who knows what could come out of it? I agree with the "starting with common ground" thing too. Always a good conversation starter.

    I'm tall, have big hair, and I gots big ole boobies.........I'm intimidating.......

    Maybe when I lose 10 more pounds something will change hahah!


    Flattering yes. Only creepy if the dude was persistent after I said "Thanks, but I'm taken."
