Love: Today, I was at the gym and I saw a really cute guy working out...

Today, I was at the gym and I saw a really cute guy working out nearby. I tried to get his attention by taking off my shirt and smiling at him. When he walked over to me, instead of asking for my number, he just said "Can you please put that back on? Thanks". FML

Today, I was at work when a cute guy came up to me and said he liked my shirt. In a desperate attempt to say something back, I said, "Thanks, I like your shoelaces." FML

Today, I went to the gym with two of my friends expecting to pay a guest fee but the cute guy working at the front desk let me in for free. On the way out after working out I started to flirt with him and he said, "Don't flatter yourself, I just let you in because I'm lazy." FML

Today, I exchanged numbers with this guy in the McDonald's drive-thru. When he asked why I gave him my number I told him I thought he had a nice smile. When I asked him the same question, he responded with "I just thought you had a nice rack". FML

Today, I had a very good-looking guy ask for my number while I was at work, but due to our policies I had to turn him down. FML

Today, I was having lunch at a cafe. There was an attractive guy looking at me from another table. I smiled back and gave a little wink. A minute later he approached me. I introduced myself and asked if he wanted my number. He said, "Um, no but what are you eating? It looks really good" FML

Today, I was finishing my chest workout at the gym when this really cute girl started using the machine next to me. To impress her, I tried lifting a lot of weight on the barbell. It ended up landing on my neck and she had to help me get it off. FML

Today, while out for lunch, a guy approached me and asked for my number. I politely declined. To my dismay, he dropped to his knees, grabbed his head, and started moaning about how nobody ever gives him a chance. I felt the accusing stares. FML

Today, the really cute guy who asked for my number last night texted me. He wanted to know if he could get my friend's number, because he'd been too shy to ask her directly. FML

Today, I went to the grocery store. I saw a very cute guy in the aisle and smiled. He smiled back and blushed a little. He walked over and I flirted with him. He said, "I thought you should know the zipper on your jeans is down" and walked away. It was. FML

Today, I went shopping. At the counter, the cashier started flirting with me and asked me for my number. He was cute, so I gave it to him. After walking out of the store, I got a text that said, "I didn't want to say it out loud, but your pants are unzipped." FML

It's true, trying to impress anyone is an instant YDI. However, he had no right to tell you to put your shirt back on. It's your shirt, I'm assuming you are either male or had a sports bra on underneath and were not breaking and public indecency rules, so he was entirely out of line. Next time, tell him no.

Maybe he was married and didn't want you to tempt him.

#52, given the context, it was probably pretty obvious that she was flirting with him. I mean really, she admitted it was for him, and he responded as if it was for him. He was right in his assumption, so it doesn't really matter if he was presumptuous, because he was correct.

Ouch, YDI though. If you need to take your clothes off to get a certain guy's attention, he's probably not the kind of guy that you really want to be with... Unless you're looking for a one night stand; then strip away.

This is why they created female-only gyms. Get a membership to Spa Lady, and don't try to pick someone up at a gym. Make yourself up and go out to a bar if you're after that kind of attention.

I'm glad the guy had balls to come over and tell you that. I agree with what #56 said. I hate it when i go to the gym, a place were i can go to and relax and just work out, and see women dressed half naked at the gym. I'm not gay, but its not the right place to be dressed like that. Plus i hate it when i see that cause then i start getting a borner and **** i'm in basketball shorts, it the worst.
