But You Lost It Somehow

Yesterday, I arrived earlier than usual at my gym in the hopes of finding the place empty. Although the weight room was as busy as usual, there was nobody in the locker room apart from one guy entering the communal showers.

I put down my bag and started getting changed. I noticed something fly past me: he'd strolled out naked and chucked his underwear on his pile of clothes. When he went back to the shower, he moved to a shower that stood directly in my line of vision.

I noticed he was staring intently at me as he soaped himself. He was probably in his early 30s, asian, muscular but not lean. I looked a second time, to be sure I wasn't imagining things (I thought until yesterday my gym was the straightest one in London). Turned out he REALLY was staring at me.

What disturbed me about the whole thing was that he had his mobile phone propped up on a bench beside the shower, blasting a R'n'B version of Roxette's "It Must Have Been Love" as sung by chipmunks.

It'd be funny if it wasn't so disturbing. I'd really freak out if someone did that to me in the gym... unless he was really hot in which case I might get excited (except for the chipmunks singing)

If he was incredibly hot, I might overlook the music but I'd still feel uncomfortable. Those types of situation make me extremely shy!

I never know what to do when random people make such bold advances. It used to happen to me from time to time that some real hottie would come up to me and because I didn't expect it, I would just get really quiet and refuse their advances.

Next time it happens, I'll be ready.

sooo basically if I used these tactics I'd get somewhere.....

*takes notes*

Download a copy of the chipmunk's version and start training. ;-)
