OMG OMG OMG I am not invisible at the gym anymore

Congrats, hon. Proud of you.

This is so pathetic, I don't even know where to start.

I'm on the same path of progression as OP and can feel the difference and other's reactions at the gym.... the ole' side eye

Thanks R1. I am so happy. I feel pretty. Oh so pretty Etc...

Sure, Jan.

I love you all. R2 you made me laugh. Oh I am soooo happy and excited, I HAVE ARRIVED. Congrats R3 !!! Good job

😂💩

I don't doubt that you pass as straight , but you type GAY!

You have pretty arms?

I'm fit and above average in the looks department and no one has ever spoken to me at the gym in 20 years except to say, "you done?".

Easy on the eye? So he just has the one?

TNH.

I'm happy for you OP, if that's what you want.

I mean, a pity fuck is still a fuck.

... And then you woke up.

R3 - Just make sure to avoid any interaction with The Gays at all times! Otherwise you’ll be a social PIRANHA!

Sorry, not buying it. No one over 30 uses the word 'Bro'.

I believe the correct term is Brosephina.

What r2 said. Read this thread made me feel sad at its patheticness, which is not what I want on a friday night.

Moving on.

R10, it can change. You have to observe the pack, the interactions, the body langage. If a hot bro ever comes to the locker room to grab his bag, make sure to compliment him using technical terms. Speak the langage. Chose a kind one. He will signal you to the pack. They love the attention, The compliments, if they are not ' charged". make sure they get that you admire them, but don't be gay about it. Never show skin.. Never show dick of course. It's offensive to them. I have seen the reactions to the only young guy who doesn't towel dance and shows dick. He might as well be dead. They never aknowledge his existence. Be persistent. You'll see

OP, don't worry, some of us get you. Most of my friends have been het guys and I totally get what you're saying. I can tell a straight man would be just as happy to be accepted by sometime they consider an alpha. I've sometimes been in situations where a group of straight men viewed me as an alpha and it used to freak me out. Not that I was ever a hot muscle guy but I had balls to not give a fuck and they recognized that. There's something so very sad and at the same time delicious in breaking a straight guy's spirit by not accepting him when he thinks you're a superstar. Mind you, I used to be bullied as a teen so it was weird to say the least to be suddenly treated as such.

Men who talk about alphas make my boner cry.

This has to be the MOST PATHETIC thread of the year, and January isn’t even over yet.

[quote] I pass as straight, so I conspicuously avoid any interactions with the gays.

He said, speaking to a forum full of them.

[quote] I towel dance, etc and the hot bros have finally sort of accepted me, after a long suspicious probation period

It must have been the "etc".

[quote] We chit chatted for a while and then he went back to his business, with his hot blond gf smiling at me the ' you're officially accepted, alpha wolf here likes you' smile.

"pick a little talk a little pick a little talk a little cheep cheep talk a lot pick a little more"

Weren't you really serving a "brobration" period?

No one over the age of 21 should be so needy about the approval of others. Do it for yourself, not their belated approval. They'll turn on you in two seconds.

No I am sure I am accepted for good. The worst that could happen would be the gay grindr guy who fucked me makes a faux pas , but he's married so he pretends to not know me. I am safe. They won't turn on me. As long as I refrain from starring of have a lingering eye, I am OK.

[quote] As long as I refrain from starring of have a lingering eye, I am OK.

Thank God you're okay as long as you refrain from...whatever that is.

Staring at croches or have a lingering eye

More like “starring in locker room fantasy porn”

Don't look directly at their croches OP! That's how they will know that you are a real man's man.

I laughed a lot

[quote] Staring at croches or have a lingering eye

That reminds me, you should probably also avoid doing any crocheting in the locker room.

Don't ask don't tell. 49 year olds are not bros. And they seldom have pretty arms. Not that any straight guy would comment on. What the fuck is this lying all about? Do you sell January gym memberships OP?

Gym Croche didn't he die in a plane crash?

OP sounds like a real Operator!

Your efforts are appreciated OP.

OP, you write like Jackie Collins so the odds of you passing are about 0%

[quote] Your arms are kinda pretty. You were always easy on the eye but this is really defined here and here, you look chiseled

Sure, Jan. No one talks like that. But, it is fun to fantasize!

1/10

[quote]We chit chatted for a whileand then he went back to his business, with his hot blond gf smiling at me the ' you're officially accepted, alpha wolf here likes you' smile.

It's such a cliche on DL, but it still needs to be said: This will end in tears.

R40. It won't end in tears because THIS DID NOT HAPPEN

"Your arms are kinda pretty" - seriously, OP, bless your heart. No one says or said that. We all get desperate for attention sometimes, but let's think before we make up outlandish fake quotes. It's like the moms who post, "Oh, my sweet little 4 yr old Dakota today said 'Mommy, I wish everyone in the world would get along, and both major parties would quit fighting." Mmmhmm, sure.

I know there have been many times when I've felt pretty low. And I always think, "if only alpha wolf would show some sign that he thinks I 'm better than a dung beetle, my life, finally, would be worth living.

[quote] ' hey, are you on a special diet ? You look cut bro ! Your arms are kinda pretty. You were always easy on the eye but this is really defined here and here, you look chiseled"

I'm [italic]shocked[italic] some of you are daring to question this! This is [italic]exactly[/italic] how gym alpha wolves talk!

Your arms shore are kinda purty!

I honestly don't know which is sadder and more pathetic - that OP actually aspires to this or that he thinks that the story is believable and is how people like this actually behave.

I believe every word of OP's story.

I believe every word of OP's story.

OP I'm dying to know more of your technique and lingo.

Bro, you have a dad bod.

Lol.

Sure, Jan.

I felt good about myself today. I woke up, looked at meself in the mirror and thought I was damn cute. So, yeah, maybe me and my gym friends aren't as refined as you people would like them to be, but I am happier than I have been in months.

[quote]I felt good about myself today. I woke up, looked at meself in the mirror and thought I was damn cute.

How nice for you, OP. How nice for alpha wolf. How nice for everybody!

Enchanté to you too R54

OP....

[quote] You were always easy on the eye

Sure, bro

Watch out, OP, they'll do to you the same thing they did to Carrie.

Congrats on your hard work, bro! (By the way, I'm 67 and use "bro." You don't like it? Kiss my ass.) I know what it's like to get kind of accepted as part of the crowd at the gym. It's a nice feeling to feel you belong and are not an outsider. Don't be discouraged by these negative comments by the others. I wouldn't push the gay angle, but don't be surprised if you are approached when away from the pack.

It's an indication that the economy is about to tank when a well-to-do, old, fat fart suddenly becomes a hot commodity.

Don't go broing my heart.

Hang in there brOP, maybe you'll get some brosturbation of brossy

I hope you shower at the gym and show your admirers that you're not afraid.

I do shower but I keep my underwear on until I am inside the private booth. And get out dried and wearing boxer shorts. Sometimes I forget the clean underwear so I towel dance. I know it's bas form to shower AT the gym, but being older, I hope I get a pass because I don't want to wear clean clothes on a sweaty body, even though undressing is gay. Most of the hot bros just enter the locker rooms to drop a bag in there, or sometimes change T-shirts, they NEVER show legs. Also I keep to myself as much as possible because I don't want to have purses flying off my mouth like it's Paris fashion week. R59 Thank you kindly. It's fascinating watching the interactions between these GORGEOUS hunks. They CANNOT IGNORE their gorgeousness, can they ? I have noticed the truly beautiful ones are not friendly and ignore each other in subtle ways. The dynamics are very complicated. Most huge guys have a pocket guy as a training partner, like sharks. It seems to work as an accessory and a protection too. The pocket bros are very devoted to their Master. It's hot.

This needs to be a TV series.

F65 Fantasy Island?

R66 anyone who has ever been to a gym knows I am describing the reality

You're nuts.

How many times has OP beat off to his fantasy concoction in the last 48 hours?

[quote]This needs to be a TV series.

I think I remember watching an episode of Will & Grace where Will pretends to be straight at his Gym.

I have a friend who goes to the gym who is always obsessed with the gym bodies etc. I like in-shape, nice bodies but I really find guys who are obsessed with their bodies and their own muscles sort of repulsive. I also find overly worked out bodies unattractive. Before you all tell me how crappy I must look and out of shape I probably am, and how jealous I am, no. I'm in good shape, I work out (I do a lot of it at home, I have some equipment). But I just prefer handsome, normally muscular guys, or occasionally really worked out guys if it suits them and doesn't look weird. Not saying I always get these guys or anything. But the really roided out (and they are) gym bods...ugh. And I can just picture Alpha Wolf's girlfriend. For an alpha wolf I prefer Tyler Posey though.

PS OP If you're on the level, I don't want to kill your buzz, plus, if you like a certain look, then that's who you are. But your self esteem shouldn't rise or fall on being accepted by the straights or the popular kids. I mean to some extent we all are thrilled when people we admire like us. But if these people suddenly withdraw their approval, or suddenly ignore you, or tell you to fuck off, hope it won't matter much.

If you talk like you type - OMG OMG OMG no person in their right mind would speak to you at a gym of all places. Mincing queens are avoided by straight men at gyms.

OP Intriguing developments. Congratulations on your accomplishment!

Where do you live? How old are you?

What accomplishment?

Straight, alpha men don't 'chit chat'. That is a high-level gay thing.

[quote] Straight, alpha men don't 'chit chat'. That is a high-level gay thing.

The true alphas don't talk at all, they just grunt.

The betas chat, but they never chit.

Wouldn’t this be a great world if insecurity and desperation made us more attractive? If needy were a turn on?

Well you just pretty much described Instagram.

I do go to the gym and I do build some muscle and we don't wear shorts? It's true about not bare legs but we all wear compression leggings or shorts over tights. What's the deal with everything else being wrong with this FAG OP? He's not even in the right hemisphere if that's how he thinks modern "straight" men behave at the gym. And no 49 year old white man gets any compliments on anything, ever. Wow, he's too stupid to comment on. Those of you who think that's the truth of straight built men or all built men are crazy. A pocket spotter? I'm gonna need a man at least 210 lbs to catch my fall. His idea of the gym culture is fucked the fucked up. Straight guys can be arrogant, built guys too. But it's a race with yourself or in the most advanced bodybuilding culture, a place that OP would never be allowed to join. The whole read is what the fuck? I guess no one under 50 posts on DL & no POC from major cities, or no gay fit men who are functional and happy with themselves? Nobody can tell who is gay or straight at the gym, this is not 1985 AIDS babies. Men still cruise each other but no one covers anything up because fags are at the gym! Dude is operating from a broke construct.

R80 Sorry, angry POC, I am not responsable for the racist culture in your local gym. Try wearing oversized training gear, stop the leggings or put shorts over it, and sorry to burst your bubble, but EVERYBODY can tell who's gay and who's straight, from the moment they enter the arena. I am one of the happy few who puts good personality and humility before ' attitude'. I'll also give you something to think about : I am White, obviously, not apologizing about it. The native americans were sexually repulsed by us and didn't even rape the women they captured. I am not offended. My european ancestors were all enslaved at one point or the other. By one another. Big deal. I don't built my entire life around anger because some random folks think that I am ugly or smelly. I live my life in peace, and don't have an agenda = people are Nice to me. I am currently breaking the glass ceiling at my gym. Suck it, bitch.

“Yay, I have the validation of those who should detest me for the terrible, horrible gay insect that I really am and which I have tirelessly worked to hide!”

Exactly R82. Thanks

OP you need help, seriously

OP, Where do you live that having the approval of straight men is so important?

Are you in a major city? Does it have a significant gay population?

Or are you in some suburbia where the gays are few?

Obviously OP is a fantasist. But that said, what sort of gym would actually have clientele like that. I have been training for 30 years and it’s pretty fucking straight. Go in, do your stuff, get changed and go home. None of this parading around with towels, fist pumping, alpha dog giving commenting on your ‘guns’ shit.

Also I am in my fifties and can can tell you that true respect comes from either lifting heavy (but well) or true intensity and dedication (which people can see), or just giving off a friendly vibe.

R85 Thank you. I live in the South, but not deep South, rather the Northern fringe. Suburban/agicultural area. The church is strong here. No man's Land on Grindr. Nearest big town is 20 minutes drive. I don't know of any out gay men around. But some townies who've fucked me venture in my gym. Officially there are no gay men in the area but lez are plenty.

I am so embarrassed for you. Even as a fantasy, this was painful to read. Get some self-respect, OP.

For those that like that sort of thing, that is the sort of thing they like.

OP is a bit over the top but we all know gay circles are even more vicious with its caste system based on hotness.

^^ A *bit* over the top??

[quote]I live in the South, but not deep South, rather the Northern fringe. Suburban/agicultural area. The church is strong here. No man's Land on Grindr. Nearest big town is 20 minutes drive.

Ahh, that explains a lot. You're in a desert and needing male attention, thus this exhilaration about a straight guy complimenting you. Congratulations on the achievement.

If there is a big city a mere 20 minutes away, please get in the car and go there occasionally. I really, really encourage you to find gay friends. GAY friends. Whether its joining a gay bowling league, or a gay hiking group or a gay church, please surround yourself with GAY men occasionally. A 20 minute drive is more than worth it for your well being.

If that town 20 minutes away lacks gay people, then drive whatever distance is necessary to get to a place where gay people congregate. You need gay friends. Not just fuck buddies, but friends. Your well being is worth it!

How can a town lack gay people?

Were they stoned to death?

You start, R93, with someone like OP and then they all leave.

Personally, I'd love to be invisible at the gym. I go there to work out, not socialize, and I'm happy to get in and out and on with my day with as few people bothering me as possible. Can't even imagine being thrilled or viewing it as an accomplishment that some dorky weight lifter bro paid me a lukewarm compliment.

[quote]Were they stoned to death?

Yes, right after a yearly lottery.

[quote] How can a town lack gay people?

He's the only gay in the village.

I'm pretty, mama. Look at me. I'm pretty.

[quote] Yes, right after a yearly lottery

I hate it when that happens.

Hey, brar - you catch that dude over there? Man, he's always been easy on the eye but damn, his guns are looking pretty now.

The nearest town is, I believe, THE most conservative and religious town in. the. country. It's not worth driving there to meet gays. There are approx 4 of them, they are overweight below average things who don't even know what a gym is, and gather in the only gay bar like polar bears on a melting icebank. It's too sad. The bath house is my only option. I went yesterday and had fun = suck off a cute bi guy, fucked a cute bi guy who prolapsed all over me, wanked a big grey daddy with a wedding band on him, and sucked off a OK looking poz guy. And that was a good evening. The 8 other queens there were above 70 years of age. I would have to drive HOURS to find attractive and nice gay friends like in the movies and magazines.

[quote]I pass as straight, so I conspicuously avoid any interactions with the gays

Mary!

[quote]I would have to drive HOURS to find attractive and nice gay friends like in the movies and magazines.

You're looking for friends like those in the movies and magazines? Are you a teenage girl?

R104 if by ' real world ' you mean the shapeless hideous old men sitting at the gay bar terrace like dying whales, I 'd rather keep trying to conquer the gorgeous hunky tattooed hetero rednecks at my gym, thanks.

If your perception and value of yourself depends on the reactions and opinions of others then you need help with your own ego. Its what you think of yourself not what others think of you thats important. You have to learn and value yourself not the opinions of other people who know nothing about you at all.

[quote]I 'd rather keep trying to conquer the gorgeous hunky tattooed hetero rednecks at my gym, thanks.

This is really quite sad. You have no self-esteem at all, do you? You'd have a much better chance of meeting someone if you weren't so terribly shallow.

A little bit of drugs can go a long way with the "straights".

Okay so you have just made this whole thing up, haven't you, honey?

There are 4 gays in town yet there's a gay bar for them?? Where's the bath house with all the gays located? Yeah seems you had a REALLY good night. Was this in that small Southern town you live in, or the most conservative, religious town in the world? Seems you've had us all on. Good work.

Who are the gays you "conspicuously avoid" at the gym if there are no gays in your area, OP?

This whole thread is one long EST, and not even an entertaining one. At least some posters spotted it as such early on.

If you read OP's other posts, gushing over Vivien Leigh and Natalie Wood - it becomes clear that he is over 70. If he's ever been to a gym, it was to purchase a headband.

"fucked a cute bi guy who prolapsed all over me,"

WTF?????

OP wants to be a pretty girl.

And to think I could have been reading the "Colton Haynes to star in new gay comedy" thread all this time...

I'm still trying to figure out how OP knew the guys at the bathhouse he was being a whore with were bi, let alone poz. Were they wearing sticky name labels? "Hi, I'm bi!" "Hi, I'm poz!" Usual those situations aren't conducive to learning about people's backgrounds.

Yeah, if you're going to write fantasy fiction it should still make some kind of sense.

You fucked a cute guy and he prolapsed all over you? WTF does that even mean? His guts came out of his ass and ended up all over you?

R118 yes, that's more or less what happened. He wanted a fuck and I'm a bottom, but he was the only decent looking guy at that moment so I tried to stay hard enough for him to ride me reverse cow-boy style, slapping his ass as hard as I could to compensate, etc but I couldn't pound because my dick was too soft so I pulled his hair, grabbed inside his mouth with my other hand and pushed my dick inside for all I was worth, and he simultaneously came and shat. I can tell who's what R116, I have been around since the late 80's. For all the stupid posters here who think it's an EST , I had a very warm welcome yesterday from all my New friends and I felt loved and happy, so the vicious snears of 3 anonymous nelly queens really matter. LOL. The DL sleuth. ' he said 4 gays ...and then he says There's A gay sauna... EST EST EST.. He likes Natalie Wood = HE'S OVER 70!!!!'.Pathetic. And there is no excuse in this Day and age for not being fit if you are gay. Or at least fat/fit. (Don't get me wrong I love a chub.)

What are you on?

[quote] I had a very warm welcome yesterday from all my New friends and I felt loved and happy,

That's the nicest part about imaginary friends. They're always happy to see you.

While many Dataloungers over the years have described intensely depressing and pathetic personal lives, I think the OP might take the cake.

Congrats, OP, you're best at something.

I need to remove my brain after reading r119's post.

Doesn't take much sleuthing to figure out there's probably not a thriving gay bar in s small town that supposedly has only 4 gays and they're all old. Also do you mean ETC.? Or are you talking about Eastern Standard Time?

EST = Elaborate scenario troll

Extremely Stupid Twat

I only describe honestly and accurately gay life in a small town vs the glamourized version that the media or people who live in big towns would prefer, or would experience. But it's not always bleak. Today after the gym I wanted to smoke pole so I drove to town to the bathhouse and had a blast. 6 guys, 2 were hung like mammoths and one was extremely tall, beefy and masculine. I came while sucking on his humougus dick. Was Nice. I have a perfect life.

[quote]I came while sucking on his humougus dick.

I have no idea what "humougus" means, but you might want to see a doctor.

Link, please!

I can't believe OP thinks a guy shitting on him during anal is a "prolapse."

R130 is it not what you call it ?

With this, who needs cable TV?

No, OP, prolapse is not shitting yourself during sex. Prolapse is when your guts ends up outside your asshole. Google 'rosebud' and 'xxx' and you'll see a prolapse, OP. So is 'warm welcome' your euphemism for having someone cum & shit on you?

Thanks R133 I didn't know that. And ' warm welcome is some gorgeous enormous bearded hunk saying ' HELLO Mxxxx ! ' at loud across the gym floor, and have two other guys smiling and saying Hi when I come in.

Ok, I think it's all be too. But if true, R134, they are not your friends. A bath house could not stay open with such a small customer

Nice
