Are people intimidated by you?

[MIKERAZ]

due to your size

not a very intelligent question.

better phrased would be:

"are people respecting you more due to your massive size?"

I never really notice it directly, but my girlfriend says that all of her guy friends are scared to talk to her anymore because they always see me in the gym and are affraid of me (I go to a university, so everyone sees everyone else at the gym). Personally, I think it is funny as hell. I am a pretty laid back guy, and not really that agressive unles you piss me off!

My friend told me people are but I doubt it - I think if you smile alot and are outgoing it won't be a problem.

Assuming you think it is a problem.

I think "intimidate" is misunderstood. "Respect" should be the word of choice. The treatment a person receive's when they are in in shape versus when they are not is like night and day.

"are people respecting you more due to your massive size?"

Much better rephrase. And yes, when I was at the top of my game a while back, I got respected very nicely.

However, since gaining 20 pounds of fat and looking like a big doughboy now, I dont get the same level of respect.

But, Im giving up playing computer games all the time and getting my ass back to the gym again.

Time to get that "respect" back.

people aren't intimidated by my size, however my 19" Godzilla shlong can, at times, make people a little uncomfortable. I try to hide it by wearing dresses, but that opens up a whole other cast of problems. btw, i went from a 4" twig to a 19" Godzilla shlong under the expert advice of Greg Valentino.

Yes, but I would be too. Tonight I went to a dance club and I get people feeling my arms and traps. Guys accidently bump into me and bounce off. The bodybuilding lifestyle has its benefits. There were 2 guys there bigger than me muscularly. Both were shorter and big mofos.

some are

i'm 6'2" 190 - around there some times 195 depending on the day

 

[bollocks]

it's part respect and part intimidation.
witch is good sometimes.
you see when I started liftin @ 19 I wanted too look like an underwear model to attract the girls, now I'm 38 and a taxi driver/doorman
I want to look scary, put people off robbing me. but I can also be very nice to people and smile a lot, like the other guy said.
someone wanted to give me a job in a rough part of town, as a bar manager,witch I have done before, he wants someone who looks scary, but who can be a nice guy and hold an intelligent conversation. MY friend said to this guy, " he looks like he eats babies, but I have not yet seen him do it"
looking a certain way and acting that way are two different things.
just remember what you are on, and how it may make you act.
