I’m Not Picking Up Women at the Gym

July 29, 2009, Category: Life's Shitty Truths

Tired of only wishing I was in the physical shape I was in high school, I recently decided to stop being a lazy bitch and start going to the gym. The fact that I recently became single made the decision a logical one. The truth of the matter is that I would prefer to have a body that girls want to see naked. Can you blame me? My life is a shitty one, and I’ll take whatever I can get in order to get laid. Plus I’ve been bored as shit since I graduated college, bought a house, broke up with my girlfriend, and started working from home.

In my mind I imagine the gym to be a place that could potentially be swarming with beautiful, fit women. After three weeks of actually sticking to my program at the gym, I can tell you that this is actually a reality. Not to say that there aren’t a lot of “undesirables,” as well, but I can tell you the percentages are better than my local grocery store. The gym is filled with hot women, plain and simple. I can’t even pick a treadmill without my brain subconsciously scouting the area out for one near a tight ass.

With that said, I’ve been doing a lot of thinking and I’ve decided that the gym is the worst place to attempt picking up women. Why? Let me tell you.

Competition
It’s only fitting that a place filled with beautiful, fit women would also be filled with guys that could take my ass out in any fist fight. I’m short and average, while my potential competition would be tall and ripped out of their fucking minds.

In the real world where muscles are covered by several layers of clothes and personality actually peaks its way into the mix, I might actually stand a chance. At the gym, it’s all about the looks, and the shitty truth is I don’t have ‘em.

Awkwardness
It’s hard to imagine, but I dare to think that it may be possible that women don’t have the same thoughts as I do when they’re at the gym. Is it possible that women aren’t scouting the floors for a potential fuck buddy when choosing place to do bicep curls with their 5lb dumbbells?

I’d say it’s quite possible this is the case. And thus, we risk the awkwardness of approaching someone who absolutely doesn’t want to be approached. Girls at the gym look so fucking serious all the time. Have you ever seen a girl working out at the gym that didn’t look like a bitch?

Rejection
Combine the competition of all the guys around that easily emasculate me with the awkwardness of smoking hot women that don’t want to be approached and there is a simple formula that adds up to rejection.

I supposed your average tool bag doesn’t give a shit about rejection. These guys go girl to girl, woman to woman, shooting their game and not caring that only 10% bite the hook. Unfortunately that’s not me. Maybe if it was, I’d get a lot more pune.

But I’ve only been in the singles game for a few weeks, so for now I’ll avoid being a douche bag. But maybe being a douche bag is what I will eventually become or already am… Who the hell knows? I haven’t figured it out yet. Maybe that’s the shitty truth, but only time will tell, my friends.

    Women are at the gym for a reason, to get a workout, not to get hit on by tons of guys. Women often feel self-conscious at gyms, because there’s so much focus on their bodies there. Therefore, it gets a bit much when guys are constantly ogling you while you’re sweating away trying to keep your body in shape.

    In some cases, it might work when you see a regular there, and you make her your target. Then you can make eye contact, see if she smiles back at you etc. If you see some interest, rather ask her for her number when she’s done with her workout and she’s about to walk out of the gym. But that’s just way too much work if you ask me.

    Picking up women at a gym is not your best bet. You’d be better off at a bar where the environment is more relaxed.

    So, in other words, you’re telling me I’m right?

    That’s awesome news.
