I had an embarassing moment in a gym, about a year ago. I was using some of the resistance machines (you know, where you puch or pull and it is attached to a pulley that lifts the weights, rather than lifting actual dumbells) and as I was moving from one machine, this guy, who I had never met before, asks me to "spot him"
Now, I realise now this means you catch the bar if he cant lift it or something like that... but at the time I didnt know what it meant, so I assumed he was comming on to me. So I just stammered "Im sorry, Im not into that sort of thing" and hurried off.
In retrospect, he must have thought I was nuts!
