that really irks me when guys try to talk to my gf in front of me. It's disrespectful to me. I don't go around talking to other guy's girls unless I am really good friends with them. My gf doesn't usually respond or gives one word answers and disengages from the conversation. Its really up to her to not be friendly.
Btw, would it bother you if it were hot chicks coming up talking to your gf or is it just because they are dudes?
So my question is, if you lift with your g/f or wife and a guy keeps bothering her and she starts to get annoyed by it and annoyed he's during it right before or even during a set, but she's too polite to be a dick, how do you handle it, or how should she handle it?
How do you handle people trying to talk to you? Myself, I usually just give a head nod, and a quick "what's up?" and keep it moving. My girlfriend, who I work out with, she is more polite than I am.
About 2 weeks ago, we just got to the gym, I loaded the bar for her to do rows, and this guy starts talking to her that was giving her unwanted "tips" before, so he started talking about a movie we had just seen and she loved it, so I was trying not to be rude, but after a few minutes I said "we should prolly get started so we can get done as others want to use this area too" so we do our workout blah blah blah.
Other day, we're 4 sets into our benches, I stripped my weight off, she's about to do her set and right before she lifts the weight off the rack, dude starts asking about the new Hobbit movie, if she saw it yet, how she liked it, how it was, and said how he hasn't seen it yet. So I said, "dude, we're doing our sets, she needs to do hers, then I need to reload the bar, we're trying to get done so we can get out of here and get some food" He walks away... no biggie
After the workout and we're walking to my truck, she said that when I went into the locker room, he went to her said I was rude and she just told him I don't like people interrupting me during a workout, so I said "Good, maybe he'll stop bothering us during our workouts then."
There's also been a few times that she's gone to the locker room and on the way back to the weights, he has stopped her and tried talking but she told him she needs to get back to me because we're in the middle of an exercise.

I rarely agree with you, but this time you are spot on.Obviously he wants to bang your girl. Your girl needs to have enough respect for YOU to tell him to go fuck himself. If you find that your girlfriend just cant keep herself from talking to him then maybe its time to look for a new chick.

OP, I went thru this a few years back. The guy would approach her when I wasn't around. I figured my girl could take care of it herself so I let it go on. I kept getting worse and when I finally decided to approach him, it was nasty and I almost got banned from the gym because of it. Take it from me, deal with it now! Women are not like us. They do not see it as unwanted advance, they are just being polite. Sounds like you have a nice girl who is just being friendly. I promise you, the guy has bad intentions, and it's up to you to put a stop to it. He must see you as a chump. Please don't take that wrong. My girl says that no one looks at her or speaks when I'm around for fear of me getting pissed. I call that respect. The guy that was harassing her, had no respect for me and because I let it go on, things got real bad. It's a tuff situation.

I feel the same way. If I see a girl and she is with another guy no matter where it is I immediately dismiss her. Call me old fashioned or chauvinistic but a guys girl is his pussy and for another man to come up and engage conversation all the while knowing she is with another man is disrespect. We are all men here and we know whats in his mind when hes talking and looking at a another mans woman.
Nothing surprises me in the gym anymore. have her put a pair of tube socks in her pants..
front or back shouldn't make a difference.
Just have your girl be cold and completely non-friendly to this idiot. Unless he's mentally challenged, he should get the hint eventually. Or buy some headphones for her.
