Today, my boyfriend asked me if I wanted to go to the gym with him, and I responded that we could do another kind of workout upstairs. He quickly said he'd rather just go to the gym. FML

I'm taking a boot camp class and I must say its actually a harder workout than sex.... not as fun though.

But camp workouts are pretty intense, and I went to Navy boot camp. Army and Marine boot camp PT is way harder. I remember one time my Chief was yelling at us during PT, "Terrorists don't care if you're tired!" And I thought to myself, "I joined the military during war time...WHAT HAVE I DONE???"

He's hinting that you're getting bigger. Take the hint and lose a few pounds to keep him attracted to you.

Maybe he didn't get the hint if he's a slow thinker as I am. And if he did understand what you meant, ask him why he would rather go to the gym for a workout than have a one with you.

Boyfriend: Want to go to the gym with me? OP: *smiles* I'd rather workout upstairs. Boyfriend: Workout of stairs? I hate that damned stair climber! OP: No, I mean workout in the bedroom... Boyfriend: What? We don't have a stair climber in the bedroom! OP: No! I mean in bed! Boyfriend: You mean like jumping on the bed? What kind of workout is that? OP: You're an idiot. Just go.

It seems to me that he was either giving a hint, or he had planned to go to the gym. Maybe he wanted to do something together that wasn't just sex. Maybe he didn't want to be turned down on a suggestion. I've heard going to the gym is a HUGE turn-on for men, because you're doing something real, and doing something healthy. And in my personal experience... my fiance is ALWAYS more turned on after I come home from the gym. Even though I'm a heavier woman. Besides... exercise actually helps get your libido going!

Haha, oh well I'm sure he didn't mean to insult you. Maybe he just really wanted to go to the gym today and was trying not to get distracted!

why so many thumbs down for the overweight? I understand that can hurt but it is clearly what is going on here. Asking a girl to go work out with us to get them to loose weight. We can't very well say "You've gotten a bit thick and I'm loosing physical attraction." Realize men and women think differently. Besides it is only fair that it goes both way and both parties (straight or gay) owe it to themselves and one another to take care themselves. Being overweight is a sign of an unhealthy life style and clearly OP's boyfriend doesn't want that for them. My wife has lost 45 lbs since we started working out and hiking together and I've lost 8% body fat. We both feel better and are happier, our relationship has even gotten better. This is the tactic I used and it didn't require me directly telling her. I've never seen any other tactic work. it is either that or he can leave.

I didn't read that at ALL here. It could be that he just wants to spend more time with her. It could be that she isn't overweight, just sedentary. My wife has asked me to go to the gym with her because I don't exercise enough even though I'm UNDERweight. Not only that, but being slightly overweight doesn't necessarily mean you're unhealthy, just like being normal weight doesn't mean you're healthy.

Very true Doc. What I'me saying is that being overweight is a sign of an unhealthy lifestyle. You of all people should know that a sedentary lifestyle is very unhealthy: not to mention the horrible back problems it can cause. Granted my comment is in no way an end all be all on the subject. I do know that this exact situation plays out very often. It is a very touchy subject to broach and this is a safer way to do so. How rude OP's boyfriend sounded could just be her inner noise and how she heard it. It may or may not have been how he said it. How many times have people said something to the opposite sex and had it decoded completely different from how it was meant? That is just speculation though.
