So i was at the gym and it was a pretty slow night, but still lots of guys around. So this lady passes me and i make eye contact and hold it. She comes back like 3 seconds later and asks me to help her.(im 19, with no facial hair. and she looked about 27-32)
h: "hey can you help me get this weight off, its really heavy and i dont wana hurt myself"
m: ya sure
*now @ squat rack*
me: ya i dont kno why ppl think this is ok.
h: ya its really annoying
m: ya i get tired of it myself
h: can u get the 45's for me?
m: sure
h: oh shoot!
m: wa whats up?
h: its all backwards
m: nah its ok. just take this metal thing right here and twist it
her: ....
me: *i do it*
her: *she copy's me*
m: igh (she is doing squats btw. and who ever used it last just had the clips that hold the bar in the opposite side. so all we had to do with put the on the other side of the rack so she can face the mirror)
h*she goes to put in in one of the holes*
m: hold on now, i dont think ur that tall.
h*goes one more down*
m: there we go
h: cool
m: im surprised this doesnt happen more often
h: it actually happens all the time. but i usually just ask someone to help me out.
m(i dont remember what i said but she loled) then after that i said well wosrt comes to worst you can blame me.
h: nah
m: yeah i dont think that would do u much good
h: haha no i think not (at this point im all done with my side and she is done with hers)
h: (dont remember what i said b4 this) k thx
m: np
I walked away like
(but she didnt see this lol i had my back turned)I go and finish up my set. then i go to another machine. then i realized i left my towel over there. so i wait till she finishes her set and i walk over.
NOTE: b4 i walked up a personal trainer had been hitting on her like the whole time. and he just left a few seconds b4 i show up
m: i left my towel over here. is that one it
h: i know that one if mine *points to it* (hers was on the bench. and mine was on the ground)
h: i dono
m: ya i dont want that. dang you gotta tell me these things
h: just go get another one from the front (in kinda a bitchy tone. then put her ear phones back in)
and that was it. i just ignored her the rest of the night and fished my workout. When i was leaving the gym i looked over and this trainer was back at it with her.
now that im sitting here thinking about it, i THINK i should of said something like, " you know i usually charge for my services
but ill make an exception for you" idk just something I thought sounded good.But how many things did i do wrong? I felt a little overwhelmed, and i was in my head. Mostly cuz i was trying to build comfort/attraction really quickly cuz i didnt have much time. Dont get me wrong i wasn't standing there like "ok build comfort, and then go cocky funny." i wasn't thinking that, but at the same time i was trying to get her to like me. and i was going with the, "ts always on" mind set.
