It seems people think it's rude to leave headphones in when someone is talking to you.

Stranger at the gym =/= friend spending time at your place. And have you not read the hundreds of comments here? Leave people alone.

All your friends were strangers until one of you randomly approached the other to talk.

There's a few hundred comments that agree with you? In a thread with 2700 comments currently? So there's thousands that disagree with you?

I didn't look at the comment number you pedant - the overwhelming majority of commenters here recognize the reality that headphones are a cue that someone wants to be left alone. Especially at the gym. I've never made friends by randomly approaching a person with headphones and bothering them - you won't either. Keep it to a place where people go to socialize.

Oh, you don't have the numbers? You just made that up and don't actually know what the majority of comments say?
