    And don't have to worry about who has put their germs all over the machine and NOT clean it when they were done!

    Amen! That is the grossest thing about a gym - any gym.

    I used to get hit on all the time at the gym when I was younger and when I was running. I'd go out for a run in beat up shorts and tees no makeup looking nuts and still get hit on. I was young then though. Now I must be an old hag no one hits on me anymore.

    *sigh* my hopes and dreams of meeting my future husband at the gym are slowly crashing and burning....

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    No seriously, I go to the gym to get gross and sweaty and work my *kitten* off! There really aren't many 'get to know someone' opportunities!

    I met a boyfriend that lasted 2 years while I was at the gym, have also made lots of friends of both sexes and have had a scary stalker who I had to have asked to leave! So overall yes a lot of interesting times through the gym, am not a member anymore, but thinking it now and laughing, I might re-join! :)

    In general, I am polite & social, but I've never really flirted at the gym.

    However, a long time ago I did meet a girl at my lcoal gym that I dated for a little while.

    One of my real good friends I met at the gym (and through deck hockey, he played on a rival team)

    At another gym, I was hit on by a gay guy. Kept complimenting me and wanted me to flex my bicep for him. That was a bit awkward.

    And lastly, the girl I am currently (and happily) dating, I met at heated yoga. Although technically I had met her 15 years ago in college, we bumped into each other after hot yoga soaked in sweat as if we'd just climbed from a pool.

    Yeah, honestly I kinda enjoy going to a gym for the people watching! It keeps my workouts more interesting since there's always interesting people there! Lmao

    I've worked at a gym for the past 3.5 years and unfortunately, this does not surprise me!

    I've heard that the sauna is pretty steamy too! LOL
    My friend's been hit on more than he cared for and stopped going to the men's locker room altogether.

    I pretty much stopped swimming when a creepy old dude was congratulating me on my weightloss and then put his hand on my bare stomach. And lingered!

    :noway:

    Whoa! :noway:

    Never been hit on, but get stared at quite a bit. Not sure if it's good or bad but I keep to my own business so it doesn't really bother me one way or another. I think it's just this gym in particular because it's usually a sausage fest in there and so any time there is a girl or 2 around we get stared at. :ohwell:

    Well that was a whopping non-success! I think I saw maybe 5 stories at most of people meeting some kind of significant other at a gym. But, it certainly led to some interesting stories! Lmao

    When I go to the gym, my hair is messed up, I'm all sweaty, and I'm usually breathing very heavily. If you want to hit on someone who looks like that, well, good luck! Ha!

    Sounds HOT to me! :blushing: :love:

    Ha! To each his/her own, I guess. ;)

    That's sexy...man working out, sweaty, breathing hard...I'm surprised you don't get hit on!!

    Well, I'm sure I do get hit on. But, I'm so focus that I'm oblivious to any form of flattery. (rolls eyes) I guess that's either the blood rushing away from my brain to my muscles, or I'm a guy...(shrugs) :D

    I am very happy that I joined my gym, not only did I loose weight and got into shape. But I have quite a few good friends that I met there.

    I used to go to a local martial arts (kickboxing & krav maga) school. I met a really sweet, amazing guy there out of the blue... he was very shy and it took us a while to go from friends to dating...

    and we just got married in September :):)

    Love it!!! And your pic is the cutest thing ever!
