The Wanna Be Pick-up Artist At My Gym

Ok girls, I don’t know about you but when I am at the gym… I am at the gym! I am not there to socialize, of course I say Hello to my fellow regulars but other than that I go straight into workout mode:

My I-pod in my ears (even if it’s dead!); my pen and pad in hand; and my water bottle are all I need for company.

So here’s my latest gym issue… I was working out like normal the other morning (around 5:45am) doing chin-ups well when I got down this obvious new guy to the place walked up and started chatting, of course I had to turn off my i-pod so I didn’t catch the first few lines…

But then he broke into a pickup artist speech… complimenting my chin-ups then going into why the world I’m there so early (well Dude, prob the same reason you’re there so early! ) and then he went on and on about how maybe I could give him a workout (like a written program). I think eventually he got the idea that I was just not that into him and he shuffled away to his bench.

I wasn’t rude, don’t get me wrong of course it was a little flattering any time someone shows obvious interest but it doesn’t make the way some men do it less lame.

So my question: Have you had any weird or awkward moments at the gym with the opposite sex? And stories of guys trying to pick you up?
