Back in February I (56f) saw a guy (50s) at the gym who I don’t see there very often. When we see each other we’re friendly. We chatted about Netflix shows and such and he said something like, that’s why I like you, you like that kind of stuff - or something like it. But when he said that’s why I like you I was like, nope I’m out. So I moved away and continued my workout. He’s very social, talks to everyone there, and he was socializing nearby when I moved to the floor to stretch. He says to the guy he’s talking to, I’m going to be her trainer and stretch her. I was on my back and in an instant he knelt down next to me and put his hands on either side of my head. I put my medicine ball at my face between us because I was thinking is this guy going to kiss me?! He muttered where’s your loser husband? I said Get away from me and pushed the medicine ball against his face and he pushed back. He got up and moved away. I was stunned. I immediately reported him. The gym did NOTHING. Fast forward 7 months and I see him in the gym for the first time since then. We make eye contact in the mirror so I know he knows I’m there. I finish my workout without seeing him again. But after showering I’m heading for the exit and he’s coming from the opposite direction also walking out. I have my tennis racquet and he says hello tennis lady. I ignore him. He says hello? I ignore him. He asks can you not hear me? I say Don’t talk to me you fucking creep. He says, Where did that come from? I say From the last time we were in the gym together. He says something else but I can’t remember what. I tell him to stay away from me and continue walking and then his parting words are loud and attention getting, “Well, now I have reservations about YOU after saying that!” Wtf?!? Without breaking stride or looking back as dismissively as I could I said Fuck you! He has reservations about ME? What the fuck?!
