Apparently, you're never too old for some rando to hit on you while you're trying to work out. Yesterday, I waded into the pool at my gym at 11:00 am. At 11:01, some Emmet Walsh-looking dude waded over to me and started his spiel. I interrupted him by asking his name. Then, I frowned and said, "George, please don't disturb me. I'm working out." He looked very surprised, but he did move away after I put my goggles on. Sincerely, I hope he talks all kinds of smack about me in the locker room. I hope he warns all the other guys not to speak to me. I hope he tells them all that I'm rude and unpleasant. I hope I get a reputation for being "not nice" and they all leave me alone to swim laps in peace. (Link to M. Emmet Walsh's IMDB page, for those who are too young to know who he is: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001826/)
FWIW, I look like Mrs. Claus, and this was the first time I'd ever gone to the gym without my SO because he wanted to do some shopping. We've been going to this same gym for nearly a year now, and we really love it. However, a lot of new people have joined ("new year, new me" people); I expect they'll all be gone by mid-February. I've never seen this guy before, and hopefully, I will never see him again -- especially if he sees me first! :D
