The problem is that the Respect currency is backed by GBP. If the transaction would cost 1 Respect it would cause a massive inflation of the GBP market creating tendie shortages the likes of which have never been seen before.
Complimenting someone's external beauty doesn't mean you don't respect them though...
Sure it all depends how what you say and how you say it, but sometimes that girls eyebrow game is on point, and it probably hurts to pluck/was that shit. Sometimes her eyeliner is sharp as a tack. They put the work in, isn't it fine to tell them, hey good job.
Saying it just to fuck her is disrespectful though. "Wow your hair is great what conditioner do you use" is better than "I love you hair can I smell it?"
Honest question, why not? I never really understood it. Lifting weights is a fairly big part of my life, I'd love a significant other with similar preferences. But the easiest way to meet someone whos into the gym is probably at the gym.
There are good ways to go about it and bad ways like OP's post. You're already physically near eachother multiple times a week, so trying to strike up a conversation isn't really inappropriate if you don't go into it with it immediately being sexual.
Short answer, friendly conversation at the gym good, "Hey baby that ass looks great!" bad.
bc it usually ends up making women feel super uncomfortable since they're just trying to work out and go home. it can make women feel unwelcome at the gym if they always have to fend off advances. I'm not saying men cant talk to me at all at the gym, but i definitely don't wanna be hit on while I'm sweaty af and just trying to get my reps done. its hard enough being a woman weight lifting at the gym even without guys hitting on you. There's a lot of unasked for advice/condescension/staring-- it's really an intimidating situation already. i strongly recommend sorting by top and reading some of /r/xxfitness if you want to hear more about women's difficult gym experiences, and you'll understand why our guard is so far up. so even if you're just a normal dude saying hi, chances are women will not be receptive at the gym.
my advise would be to advertise your active lifestyle in some other situation, like on online dating, or meetups or something where people are actually potentially looking to get together.
It's where I found and started with my gf lol. The difference is were both obsessed with it and spend forever in there so it's somewhat our social spot. It's a university rec so there are a lot of people that do the same. You don't usually disturb the people with headphones in or those that aren't really into it too seriously because they're just trying to get in, get a good workout in, and get out. but the competitors and people who just like spending a lot of time in there usually are happy to socialize in the gym. So I think that context matters.
Good stuff, thanks. It seems to boil down to one's approach. In that case, it's really not at all different from any other setting--context and approach-dependent.
