Why do guys think they can talk to me at the gym even though I have headphones on a clearly have my "don't bother me attitude" on? I'm not conceited at all but it's just rude to bother people at the gym when they are working out. My town doesn't have a good girls only gym and I like to work out around 5:30 but that seems like when all the stalker types are also working out. Do guys think girls go to the gym to get hit on or what?

1st question - No they do not.
2nd question - They see it as more of a challenge and try harder.
3rd question - I believe that they think the only reason that girls want to get in shape is so that men will find them more attractive, thus they want to find a man! They think that they are doing you a favor!
Maybe it would be a good place to open your own "Girls Only" gym. Sounds like your town could use one!

chances are they think you are beautiful, and the just want to talk to you. I am a guy and even though I would never bother a girl while they were working out. most guys who hit the gym, arent there for there health, they just wanna look good, which leads to egos which leads to way too much over confidence. Next time a guy hits on you, make them feel like an ***, and ask them exactly why the are hitting on you, and then maybe they will respond with a corny pick up line that you and all your girlfriends can laugh at later.

You are kidding right? Now you want men to try and pick you up on pre-set terms and limits? Whats next? Can't talk to you in the grocery store either? I'm sure church will be next,,,Gees.. just say your not interested and move on... it's going to get so bad that men will not be ALLOWED to talk to women anywhere at anytime? When IS a good time?
My town doesn't have an all guys gym because YOU women claimed it was sexist and they were FORCED to accept women. As far as I'm concerned you must live with the consequences.
Yes I agree men should not 'stalk' you but lighten up a little..

No, think of it like this. Most guys are opportunists. So they'll hit on you when ever they get the chance. I'm sure you've said no many times, and you'll say no many more times in the future. Just stay safe, get you some mace or something like that. Best of luck to you and Merry Christmas.

Guys are idiots sometimes...... Your doing the right thing, just keep your headphones on. Also when someone stops you to talk and you can tell he's not asking a gym questions, politley put your headphone on while he is talking to you, he will get the hint and slowly they will all get it. Good Luck, and my only other suggestion is to not be so pretty, ha ha ha.

The gym is a great place to meet women. Guys just need to read the signs right, which they clearly didn't with you.

try not shaving your legs or armpits
that will at least reduce the number who try to hit on you
my gym has a no hit policy - we discourage anything but training in the gym but encourage socialising in our cafe and reception area for those that want it - seems to work well!

I had the problem a little while ago, I always look at my feet or try not to make eye contact. I started to go earlier and there are not as many guys earlier in the day. God bless and I hope it goes well!
