21 (f) this side.
It’s been more than a year since I started going to the gym, and I’ve had zero interaction with any guys there (except the usual stuff like asking if they’re done with a set).

As usual, I went to the gym today, finished my workout, and was walking home when a guy from the gym (probably in his late 20s or early 30s) approached me and said hi.

I greeted him back. He asked if I was done with the gym — I said yes. Then, out of nowhere, he asked for my name. Being an introvert, I told him but immediately started feeling nervous and anxious because he was talking to me outside the gym.

He politely asked how college was going, and I overshared that I’d completed my graduation. Then he asked if I lived nearby, and after that, if I was from Delhi or somewhere else. I answered all of them because I didn’t know how to respond otherwise.

Then he suddenly asked about my future plans, and out of the blue, he said, “Do you live alone or with family?” I said with family.

And then he directly asked, “Can I have your number?”
I was taken aback by how forward that was, but I politely declined.

I started feeling anxious and just wanted to leave. It’s not like I have any interest in him — I didn’t even give him any hints.

He just said, “Oh, it’s okay, we’ll meet tomorrow at the gym,bye” smiled, and left. I quickly said bye and basically ran home.

I’ve actually noticed him watching me in the gym before(hv seen other guys do the same), but I always thought maybe he was just zoning out or something — people tend to look around sometimes. But now I’m getting a weird feeling that he might have other intentions.

I’m socially awkward and honestly have zero knowledge about this kind of stuff. And I think I overshared. Av
What do you guys think?
