I’m just now recognizing the paradox of my experience as being a gym rat.

In my early 20’s I was on a decent amount of dat dere and had a pretty sick physique. Perfect genetics for physique class imho.

I felt great about myself and was pretty cocky in general. Oddly enough (I didn’t realize this at the time) this was a point in my life that I received the least amount of attention from sluts (in person). I generated tons of attention on dating apps but in social settings women would not approach me.

The second half of my twenties was completely opposite. I had gained about 30lbs of fat and stopped lifting. I was a bloat lord from hell and I felt like complete chit self esteem wise. However this was a period in my life that sloots would damn near flock to me in all social settings. Can’t begin to count the amount of times I would get smiles or eye fuks or have random sloots find any random reason to strike a conversation with me. This was a period when I had the most 1 night stands and also had my first and only 3 sum.

Since then I’ve gotten back in shape and lost all the fat, but the attention I get is still no match for my late twenties.

Makes no sense to me at all and makes me wonder why any of us bother with this nagging lifestyle in the first place.

I started lifting to get laid and in turn the complete opposite happened.
