I Hate Men Who Disrespect Women

It’s very difficult for me to accept any form of disrespect in my life. Somestimes I wonder whether I am a bit draconian about this because I tend to cut off people that disrespect me especially if they disrespected me publicly. I initially asked this guy I had a crush on to train me at the gym. He is a personal trainer there. After training with him for a few weeks he slowly began patronizing me. He started being somewhat mean without any reason. Then one morning after warming up on the treadmill I went to him to run through the exercises we would’ve done that day. He then announced very loudly in an aggressive tone that he was going to leave the gym in about 20mins but still told me which exercises to do. He then proceeded to patronize me further and behave in the most childish of ways while he again announced that he was leaving to go home, leaving me stranded. His friends along with another girl he trains were laughing at this point. His behaviour was very dramatic and macho. Before he left he asked if I would be at the gym the following morning and I told him that I would be there. When I got to the gym the next morning he wasn’t there, I leaving me stranded. I was not sure what to make of his behaviour so I just decided never to train with him again. Am I being overly sensitive about this? We never discussed what happened that day and I only told him hi once thereafter. In the end, I just decided it would be best if I just don’t acknowledge his presence. So now we just workout without saying a word to each other. I feel like I missed something along the way but I am not sure what I did to have him behave like that. Anyway I felt really disrespected and embarrassed and decided to just ice him out completely. My reaction was somewhat extreme but 🤷‍♀️.
He was definitely brushing you off. He could have been more tactful. Yes you did the right thing. I certainly would have done the same
Yeah I accepted that he wasn’t at all interested or had another motive but now he seems more irritated with me than I was with him. Go figure! Just weird lol

@Arabia not really. The kid voice you described he was clearly telling coworker. His whereabouts

Why is ok for you to hire a personal trainer so you can hit on him as a captive audience. If the roles where revered this would be. Sexual hassanent suite
I never hit on him at all. But I do see your point.

Well there are often 2 sides to a story, so it's hard to know. Maybe you did something accidentally that annoyed him, or maybe (and I think this sounds more likely) he's just a fuckin douchebag and you did the right thing.

Not sure. But. I can say. You having a crush on him puts him at huge risk professionally. He may have done that for his job.

@St0ut Even if that's true, he was still rude about it
