What do you guys do when you see a chick looking at you?
Personally, I just keep walking, or otherwise ignore her.
Does this make me retarded? I don't know, I just don't know how to make any moves, or if that's even an option.
Maybe I'm just too artistic.
P.S. I'm a hungry skelly, so they look at my face gains, and not my muscles.

smile. if the girl, guy, or moose is cute talk to them, open with a compliment, like how large your pecs are.
Joseph Martinez
>yeah, you too
lmao
how do you even
you should have said "Not with yours"
Parker Williams
I think I have social anxiety, and I know for a fact I hate myself(with good reason), so makes it pretty easy to turn most encounters to full spaghetti dinner if u remember to bring sauce.
Ryan Price
>good reason
what is it?
Christopher Perez
What should a grill do if caught staring, though?
I always look away, or down.
Bentley Ward
what are you saying?
Alexander Green
Is it better to look away or smile when caught staring at a guy at the gym.
I'm too stupid awkward to know what to do.
Caleb Baker
I wear glasses but somehow have excellent peripherals.
I'll catch them looking long enough to take in everything... Gets my hopes up because they'll look for a few seconds, but then they always turn away and never look back.
I think it's because I'm a chinlet and a wristlet.
Samuel Nelson
you aren't a girl
and if you are
take some initiative and smile or something, you could even talk to the guy if you want
I guarantee that any guy will appreciate that, whether or not he likes you. Most guys don't judge or get all "eewwww" if someone does something like that, even if they don't like them in return.
Hunter Rodriguez
>wristlet
we in this bitch represent
Ryder Robinson
>smile
Not OP but, that makes me look Ted Cruz mode with my crippling depression.
Ethan Diaz
lol, me too. I don't think I could smile without it looking a little forced.
although most of the times grills look, I tend to be in a good mood
Ryder Smith
Yo, yep. Guy you replied to. 7 inches.
Luke Gutierrez
Talking to someone at the gym seems so.. creepy, even if its a girl approaching a guy.
I might try it though. Thanks user.
Zachary Rogers
no problem
I wouldn't make it awkward though. I don't know, ask him to spot you or something. You're right that it might be hard to initiate. But as long as you are friendly, it will probably work. Maybe ask him how long he's been lifting?
Don't ask him how much weight. Forgot to say that. That'll just make him feel uncomfortable. At least if he's a dyel skellly like me.
Jaxson Young
There was grill at my gym on Friday (lanklet) who I swear was trying to approach me several times and chickened out each time (I, of course, could be -probably am- imaging this).
I don't think there's anything wrong if you approach with the subject of fitness or the gym itself as the opening topic. It will naturally flow to other subjects if you're both interested (you'd lose interest in me within seconds of talking to me).
Thomas Morales
what is a lanklet?
Dylan Cox
Very tall.
Camden Sanders
me too.
are you the wrist guy?
Christopher Sanders
No, I was explaining a lanklet is a tall persons. I am a Cardiff Giant.
Ethan Cox
so are you ten feet tall?
Daniel Adams
As in "5'11", a fake giant."
Jaxon Ross
I was joke
6'3" master race here
Jordan Nguyen
Jelly.
>"Grow, grow, grow."
Thomas Reed
>5'11
that's only 4 inches shorter
my dick is bigger than 4 inches
never understood why mannies get so insecure
Easton Anderson
Given enough time on Veeky Forums, some insecurity will take hold. Be it manlet, wristlet, chinlet, lanklet, Xxxxx-let et al, something will get to everyone.
Juan Cook
yeah, pretty insecure myself.
about being a manlet though, I remember I had a friend, back when having friends was a thing for me He was short, but not super short, and had good face sthetics and was athletic. I think it was pretty funny, because he was actually pretty insecure(by normie standards) about his height, but the greek fat kid that was also in our circle, and was about 3 inches shorter, didn't care about his height at all.
Just goes to show that something you are insecure about, usually isn't significant to anyone but yourself.
Luke Gutierrez
Yeah, nothing I can do about being a Cardiff Giant, but at least I'm escaping spooky skelly mode.
Although I have never dated a woman taller then myself, I'd be okay with a dominant and aggressive Amazon.
Jaxson Perry
I guarantee you it does matter to other people. But if there's nothing you can do, there's nothing you can do. Either kys or accept and make the best of it, like Mr Greasy Greekman
Nathan Torres
>amazon
sounds kind of hot, but only as an experience. I think in general I would rather not have a bitch telling me what to do. also, they don't exist.
>I guarantee you it does matter to other people
there is a difference between something mattering to someone vs someone noticing
it also depends on the context. if you are talking about grills, then yes, it could "matter"
if you are talking about being self conscious in general, then I don't really think it matters.
>Mr Greasy Greekman
who?
Adrian Cook
I'm a shitty person. Name any aspect of humanity that isn't be socially anxious, and I perform it poorly. Worst part is I only realised recently.
David Wilson
>Name any aspect of humanity that isn't be socially anxious, and I perform it poorly
I don't understand what you mean. I literally can't read it. No offense.
>i'm a shitty person
expand pls? as in you are shitty at socializing? or as in you are morally reprehensible etc. Because the latter tend to not realize that they are shitty people
Jaxson Parker
For the past 25 years I didn't notice things or care. Didn't notice messy house, didn't return calls, didn't notice that my style of dress was shit, didn't notice the hair in the back of my neck is ugly, I mean it when I say, besides showering daily, and doing the bare minimum at work I was a shitbag to the max. Maybe not morally reprehensible, because they do bad things. I mostly did nothing. Now imagine one day you wake from this. You see what a shitbag you are, but only the surface, because when you spend so long as a piece if shit (also beta) it's all you know. Your every good act has to be a conscious act against your nature, but all along there's old mong you, trying to get out, or door number 3 which involves buckshot and mouthwash.
Parker Smith
Also got fat but in my head I saw skelly me from HS. Like actual body dysmorphia.
Nathaniel Adams
I have the same dilemma However It makes the forearms look bigger though
Wyatt Brown
Do guys actually go for that whole 'can you spot me this set" thing? I thought that was a stereotype or something, but no one has offered either.
He's bear mode, asked me how much I lift OHP before. I was more embarrassed than he would be, I'm still weak. I get it though, I think
Brayden Cruz
well that sucks
still having trouble understanding what you are saying in this post though is this similar to the whole body dismorphia thing, but in relation to your life?
post a pic with timestamp
I'm beginning to doubt you're a grill
but yes, nothing is wrong with saying "can you spot me" whether you actually need to be spotted or you are trying to initiate something
Brayden Flores
I fucked it up, but in central time zone it was 10:36.
Alright I'll work up some nerve in the next year, I guess. Thanks user
Austin Bell
The first two times (on seperate days) just give a small smile when he notices you looking, if he smiles back then next time just a simple "how's it going?" As you pass by him, and hopefully you'll get back a variant of "good and you?" keeps it simple and friendly and implies familiarity. If that goes to plan keep half an eye on the exercises he does and one day be doing one of them somewhere he will be passing by so you can be like "hey sorry, I'm tryin to do X but I'm not sure if I'm doing it right, can you check my form/ have you got any tips" etc, you know he knows how to do it so there's no reason for him to blow you off. Keep in mind if it doesn't go exactly according to plan it could be him caught off guard and not reacting as he would like too, or he could be convincing himself he is just imagining you're interest. Guys have to tread very carefully around girls especially at the gym for fear of being labelled as creepy. Atleast he will be aware that you're aware of him and the ball is kinda in his court after that.
Jose Price
>i fucked it up
>i really am roleplaying
loooooolllll
caught
Joseph Cox
nvm, I mixed up the timezones.
question tho, what are you stats? no offfense, but you look kinda small
Justin Perry
Alright. This will take a while. I have a plan. You are awesome
Michael Taylor
>I am weak
sure, whatever. I will tell you this though, if you go to the gym and just use your phone the entire time, and that's the reason you are weak and don't want to share your stats, no man will find that attractive.
the only reason I say that is because I have known women who do that, not that you necessarily would.
Blake Brooks
Yes, I am on my phone to track my lifts, change a song, and use a timer. I know what you're saying, though, since people at my gym do that anyway.
Easton Foster
>Yes, I am on my phone to track my lifts
well I didn't mean it that way. I do that too.
btw, did you get any impression that the guy likes you?
I see your senpainevernotices image, and that might change the situation.
Matthew Smith
Yeah, it was a dumb joke.
No, we've talked. I invited him out to see stuff, in general, but he just kind of laughs and changes the subject.
>feelsbadman
Blake Gutierrez
Don't worry, she wasn't looking at you. You're not even big enough to see
Dylan Jenkins
oh shet
lol. forget everything I said then.
I think he just doesn't like you.
Lucas Hernandez
Shoo spooky skelly
Brayden Jenkins
ur l8 m8
the thread is pretty much over
Logan Lopez
Yeah, I figured. There'll be other bears at the gym eventually.
I'm awful at first impressions so I probably went full retard when he said hi.
Aiden Bell
lol
why didn't you mention that he didn't like you earlier? I gave all that advice for nothing
Luis Hill
Now I can use it in the future, duh. So it wasn't for nothing. I didn't mention it because we've flirted before but this whole changing subject thing was recent.
Doesn't matter in the long run, unless I actually want body building help from him.
