This guy I talk to frequently mentions going to the gym?

Do guys ever mention that they work out to try to impress a girl they like or show off a little? Such as "Oh yeah, I've been really busy lately, especially since I always try to make time for the gym..."

Also when I'm around him he does this thing where he sort of stretches and pats out a rhythm on his stomach? Usually if we're in a group and he's not the one talking. Haha sounds weird I know, but he doesn't do it in any other situation.

i talk about going to gym regularly, i don't talk like "ohh yeah you know i bench 140 now so yeah" i always go with friends and just talk about the stupid shit we do there lol. Like my friend was using a machine wrong and said he got a work out from it, corrected him now he only does half the weight or something lol. Make sense?

I find this funny. If a guy works out, he gets a physique. That is self explanatory. He doesn't need to TELL you. You can see he is ripped. When I guy talks like that, he a tool. When a guy stretches and pats himself like that he is moron douche bag show off.

Haha that's what I thought too, it seemed unnecessary to tell me that he works out...the funnier thing is that he's actually not a show off in other ways. He's actually a very nice normal guy. But he doesn't do that with other people, which is why I think he's trying to get my attention or something?

[truthbeknown]

Yes, that could be. He is trying too hard and that may be counter productive.

okay he's only trying to make himself attractive to u, by making you think that he keeps himself in shape..and trying to get our attention while around other people to make himself seem better by comparison
