Not Getting Hit on at the Gym

Ok, so I've seen a LOT of girls on here complain about getting hit on at the gym and how annoying it is. They say gross sweaty guys come up and say stuff to them and all that, and no doubt that would be annoying.

But, am I the only one that doesn't get hit on at the gym? I've had a random person come up once or twice and say something to me....but that's like once or twice ever in my life. People stare, and that's definitely annoying, and I'd be peeved if someone interrupted my workout to hit on me too, so I'm not complaining, I guess I just don't have this problem! No one talks to me haha.

Anyway, thought it was wierd, seems to happen to everyone else!

  • I dont' get hit on ever. So don't feel bad! :)
  • Nope, never. People stare, which is kind of creepy, especially when it's an old sweaty man, but I've never been confronted or anything like that.

    and if someone came up to me and gave me a compliment while im all hot and sweaty, then i would take it as a compliment.

    Maybe you're too intimidating....seriously! There's no reason someone wouldn't find you attractive. Don't worry about it. :flowerforyou:

    Happens to me ALL THE TIME. The price I pay for being inspiring.

    To clarify -

    I'm not worried about not getting hit on at all! LOL

    I just saw repeated posts about it today and I was like hmm does this really happen to everyone? ha

    I've not been hit on at the gym, either. Unless you count the older lady who put on goggles & ducked under when it was just the 2 of us in the hot tub. Not one of my favorite gym moments.

    It happened to me once many years ago, but he was actually very subtle about it and not gross. We ended up being kind of gym buddies, but nothing more.

    Hasn't happened in a long time, though. I am not at my most attractive in the gym. :-)

    I did get hit on at a bar Friday night, though.

    I don't get hit on at the gym, either. Yesterday a guy I had gone out on one date with came up to chat (after I had explicitly informed him I wasn't interested and had ignored his calls/texts for a month). Other than that, when I'm working out, nobody bothers me.

    I don't mind it, though. I don't like to be bothered if I'm working out.

    Staring doesn't bother me, either. Because I know that if I see an attractive guy lifting weights I'll check him out- so I'm not offended if guys check me out.
  • Me neither! And don't mind haha

    I don't, either. But having seen what I look like when I'm running, both in photos and unfortunate glances in the mirror while on a treadmill... I don't blame 'em!

    I don't have the eye of the tiger. I have the eye of the honey badger.

    I seriously doubt that anyone would hit on this 63 yr old grandma so that is not my motivation but I do belong to a women's gym. Not to keep guys away but because the equipment is lower, with smaller weight increments so easier for me to use. If you have problem with guys that is one solution. Hope that helps

    It doesn't happen to me either, but that may be because my body pump instructor (a catholic school mom), decided that because my name was Mary, she would call me "sister". So now people think a I am body pumping nun. Not great for my love life, but kind of amusing. :ohwell:

    The ONE time I got hit on at the gym it was at Lackland AFB and the guy was impressed that I was smoking him on the same piece of equipment that he was using. That's it.

    not me! people stare... that's about it! i thought a guy was going to come up to me once... he was either just being really creepy... or chickened out!

    but i would hate getting interrupted during a workout, so i'm fine with that! lol.. but no, you're not alone!

    Yeah...I don't really pay attention to much at the gym, no one has come right up to me and that's where you would have to
    be for me to notice.

    I don't have the getting hit on problem...I'm ok with that. I too have read the stories!
