 <description>&lt;p&gt;Who knows? I just don&#039;t think that men are that calculating. He was working out and that was his focus. Try not to read too much into it. If he&#039;s interested, he&#039;ll call. meanwhile.... don&#039;t dwell on it. You are fabulous whether a man is interested in you or not!&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Humping Iron</title>
 <link>http://www.firstwivesworld.com/community/house-bloggers/michelle-rosenthal/humping-iron</link>
 <description>I went to the gym Monday night. I was lifting weights, listening to my iPod, in my own little world. All of a sudden, I looked up, and through the mirror I saw Jon, the guy from the wedding.&lt;p&gt;He waved, I waved, and then he walked over to the treadmill to run while I continued to work out. I figured he&#039;d at least come over and say hello, considering he left my hotel room 36 hours before. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Maybe he didn&#039;t want to interrupt me. Maybe I caught him off guard. Maybe he had a bad day at work and just wanted to sweat it out. We both work in finance, and market conditions have been tense, so anything could be possible.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I didn&#039;t look my best, but I definitely didn&#039;t look terrible enough for him to think &amp;quot;Hmmm, that&#039;s not what she looked like in a dress.&amp;quot; I mean he did see me without makeup when he stayed over!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I don&#039;t know if I&#039;m upset. I personally hate talking to people at the gym, since it extends my time there way too much. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My friends have different opinions. Some say that if he was really interested, he would&#039;ve come over. Others say they hate talking to people at the gym, so they don&#039;t blame him. The rest say it could be either of those, plus a million others.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I thought we had a fun time together. We definitely had great chemistry, and I know he was attracted to me even after he knew he wasn&#039;t getting in my pants that night. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sometimes, I feel too old to be wondering what someone else&#039;s motives are. I guess thinking &amp;quot;I&#039;m sure he&#039;ll call, since he works with my friend&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;He wouldn&#039;t have asked for my number if he wasn&#039;t planning on using it&amp;quot; doesn&#039;t really provide credibility anymore.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It seems no matter how old I get, the motto &amp;quot;boys will be boys&amp;quot; will always hold true.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
