Has this happened to any of you??

[DanceShay]

Maybe it's just me, but ever since I started gaining noticable amounts of muscle, it seems like a lot less guys have been hitting on me, and a lot more girls have. LOL, it's kind of funny writing it out, but in all seriousness, do any of you ladies have this problem too? Like I said, it could just be my mind playing tricks on me.

Maybe the guys are intimidated because you actually lift??

Never thought of that..lol

[LoKx]

Happens to me constantly.

Aren't there only like nine guys in Boise anyway?






In all seriousness, especially being that you're only 20, it's probably because most of them are intimidated. You have to remember that you're part of a demographic heavily populated by 120 pound MySpace "ripped" kids who think they're swole because they have abs...and then you come along and outlift them...it's a bit emasculating.

Could be worse...you could be this chick...



She works out at the local Y, and is honestly one of the nicest people ever, but if you have even the slightest bit of social intuition you can tell when she starts lifting that she's intimidating to the younger guys around.

[JillSlap]

I've given off the lesbian vibe since I was in high school. Seriously, since I was a Junior, I have been thought to be a lesbian AND been approached by lesbians. I don't know why; I'm not really gay, but whatever, it doesn't bother me.

My advice is to listen to the other advice you've gotten so far. You just keep getting sexier, and the men will follow...













no homo

Alright, that girl is f*cking impressive! I can definitely sense the intimidation there lol. And yeah, that does make sense given that atleast half the guys my age think they're ripped if they weigh 95 lbs and have abs. It makes more sense hearing it from someone else, though. Thanks!

Hey, nothing wrong with being approached by lesbians unless you're in prison

[nicolemc]

Enjoy the flattery and that you're intimidating the boys I haven't had the same results, though, as someone who is pansexual, I wish I had, but I think that is because I almost never see women lifting heavy in the gym I go to. They all go to the second floor for cardio o.O

Nothing wrong with it at all. It's flattering, especially if they're pretty!

I kinda lost track at your question/statement when you said "gaining noticeable amounts of muscle" ummm wut? You arent even "jacked" or vascular or even heavily striated....you have normal muscle tone for a female

and how much "muscle" have you been putting on?

while you might be "attractive" (which is a subjective thing) you are not muscular by any means of the word.

MAYBE you just are going through a time when "boys" arent approaching you. Or maybe you havent been in areas where you get appraoched a lot. Who knows but this is really something that your ego might want to take a check at the door. A lot of younger men dont have confidence, and finally sometimes people give off certain vibes. MAYBE you're giving off the wrong vibe.

This..
Also, maybe she's just more confident since she's working out and this confidence might make more guys feel hesitant to approach her due to a higher risk of rejection.

[sonti]

I never had this problem, in fact the more I worked out, the more I was approached.

Then I had a baby and now no man approaches me. I'm not single so it doesn't matter, but it's hilarious how many men smile at you, then turn around and run away when they realize you have a baby in your back sling!

^^^^ All of that, plus the offensive sweeping generalization that gay women are all attracted to the same "type."

[Keltron]

<-- would approach/hit on/holla @ OP in real life the way she is now or w/more muscle on her.

/notsrs

[kineticforce]

yeah i can definitely see how that would happen. still, different guys like different girls. i mean, a lot of guys like that frail and pale female, but you just gotta find a guy that appreciates how you take care of your body. they're out there, good luck!

Hmmmm....I haven't had a date since November...could there be a connection???

Note to Self: start hanging out by the Barbie weights. Also, stop wearing the wife beater with the crossed pistols on the front.

You're telling me you met NO guys? And is Boise that dead?

AMIRITE :}
