I can't help but to think that the woman is going to get the man she totally deserves. Or none at all. Or maybe she's not attracted to men at all and she just said that to sink you but you're not going to let it, are you? You got way too much going for you to believe some cow that's carb deprived.

The more I think about this, it reminds me of a recent encounter with a large burly woman. She was a tad taller than I am. When I looked at her and her size, I was sort of emasculated. She was struggling trying to get a knife open with the thumb stud she was looking at. She struggled for quite a bit at it. She spotted me and said she was having trouble getting it open because she didn't have the strength that I may have. She asked me if I could for her. I popped it right out in a fraction of a second. The point being there is no replacement for testosterone. Looks can be deceiving and I was wrong to assume she had a pair bigger than mine in her purse just because of her size.


So my advice to the OP is that he should have just grabbed the heaviest thing you could find. Even better if it's what she was using and tossed it like a pillow. Somewhat immature? Yes, maybe it is. It would have shown her that YOU are the man here. Don't forget!

This forum gave me great advice on how to approach someone at the gym.

Yesterday night, I noticed this absolutely jacked woman in the powerlifting area doing perfectly executed deadlifts and squats. Now, I don't go to a gym that produces a ton of powerlifters and bodybuilders, especially female ones, so that was quite the awesome sight. Since she was so focused on her lifting, I didn't want to interrupt her at all (even during the breaks between sets) until she was done. I went on with my workout, and when she was done and cooling down, I approached her, and asked her if she competed. She said yes, and I then said that her routine was extremely impressive and that it's awesome to see women who are dedicated to lifting heavy. I then asked her about her routine, specifically, as to how effective doing deadlifts and squats on the same workout are (I don't do them on the same day.) She responded by saying:

"Look, I am not interested in talking training with anyone, and even if I was, you are way to small for me to even consider your company. My ex was a 230 lb powerlifter, and even that was in the small-end of guys that I am attracted to. Try gaining some size before talking to female lifters next time."

What...the...hell? Ok, I know I am not the biggest guy in the weight room, but I am decently big and strong for my size (5'6", 173 lbs and just performed a max bench of 325 two weeks ago.) I actually felt proud of the gains I was making, but damn, that freaking hurt. Not just from the rejection itself, but if my accomplishments aren't really accomplishments at all. I know I'll probably never break that 200 lb mark, but damnit I train extremely hard, and I don't "use" anything except protein.

Ugh, sorry, I know I shouldn't taken that personally, but that hurt a lot.


I want to know why you let a stranger disrespect you to your face and you said nothing back to her????????

Most women lie in public when they are not attracted to a man not tell him to his face...."I;m not interested"

So yes, any man would qualified to verbally abuse her if they were in that situation

Because it's a normal reaction to be rude to someone who is being rude to you.
