Well since nobody's responded to your thread yet I'm going to (even though I'm not big - I'm 5'-8" 190lbs but growing)
So far I have had prob. about 30 people come up to me and say , "wow, you're gettin big". -Even people I see at the gym, but have never spoken to.
I find girls smile and stare a lot more than before.
I see that people are a lot nicer to me and are more apologetic.
I also have people that give me dirty looks because they assume I'm juicing.
I find that people love me because if they didn't I'd FINA rage on their asses!
I have found that Nathan looks up to me and considers me his hero.

Whenever I'm in a store of something the sales guys always call me big guy or big man.
Friends I haven't seen in a while say "damn dude you're gettin huge" or "must be on another cycle"
At night clubs or when I go out most people part the way so I can get by.
I get alot more looks from women than I did when I was smaller, but i think this is also in part because I feel better about myself and am more self confident.
Other than the idiots who pass it off as simply juicing, most are good responses.

to each his own i guess.
personally i workout for the meaning it gives my life. some people are intimidated, some are inspired, and some know exactly why we are in this sport. bodybuilding gives me the proof that i am better than everyone else. no one can take it from me.
there u go buddy

My 2 cents....
I wish I was that big, but I'm about 185 and around 10% BF. When I went out for my sister's birthday, the waitress was all over me and grabbing my knee while serving food and taking our orders. That never happened before I started bodybuilding (and yes, I was wearing one of my "snugger" t-shirts that showed off my goods).

and your an idiot!SkipperJackson said:
MIKERAZ i don't mean to come off like an ass bro. there is just so many little kids posting B.S on this board. you seem like a stand up bro. again, if I came off like an ass, I apologize.
well when your a big meathead you will get positive attention, but most of the time its gonna be negative attention and comments, just like last night I walked into a chinese restaraunt and two women sitting there, when i walked by one girl said does he do steroids, and the other said, its plainly way too obvious!!!!
I just thouhgt i'd post my experience, even though i'm no Hulk like you guys 
I've been really working out for close to a year now, and im 6'1 206. People i haven't seen in a couple months always say cool stuff like "damn gettin big bro". I worked at the local Amphitheatre this summer and i noticed lately more chicks rubbernecking me when they walk by. Its pretty cool cause your more confident and don't take shit for lame as people, so keep working out bro its worth it.

i dont consider myself to be huge, but i am big compared to the general public. i work the door at a bar...you would think girls would grab my chest and arms more, but all these damn drunk guys grab my arms more. that gets annoying after a while. i get the classics like how much do you bench, man you are small (sarcastically), man i wouldnt mess with you.
but like bouncer said most of the people give negative attention. just this last saturaday i through a guy out of the bar. he stood out side and started yelling, "at least i can lift my weights without steriods!" i couldnt be real mad since i am a juicehead, but i told him to never come back and he almost cried.

I just barely qualify for this thread, 6'2" 231. Women stare sometimes, which is fine, the smaller guys at the gym usually stare and move out of your way when you walk around, when I hit 20" arms I expect things to be different, but it'll take me 250 or so to get there.

Bro, I think I understand why you put up all these posts. It's not that it's annoying (not yet at least), but since you do them every day, it would take up a lot less space if you just bumped up an old thread with a similiar theme you made, rather than make a new one. 
Now, on another note, I notice things are different now that I am bigger. I started almost 4 years ago at 144.5lbs at 6'3. I remember getting into a lot less fights back then. Now it seems people who have small mans complex want to prove something. I am now 250lbs, 10%, and I never had so many wannabe tough guys try to start shit for no reason, like now. Also I get some dicks at the gym who make comments behind my back. They neglect to see that I eat 6-10 times a day, I make sure to put in rest days, I do squats, rows, bench, dips, deads, clean and press, etc and no foo foo stuff. Meanwhile they are doing 100 sets of cable curls, drinking a shake, and wondering why I am getting bigger. Yeah, it's just the juice, uh huh.
I also found out that the whole bullshit about girls not liking guys with to much muscle is just that, bullshit. I get just as many looks now, as I did when I looked like a 'gq coverboy'. A week or two ago, I went to the mall with my beautiful fiancee', and we went into the gap. She wanted me to try on a pair of jeans that were supposed to be relaxed fit boot cuts, and a sweater. Well, I guess most people with a 34inch waist don't have 28inch thighs, so they were really tight, and so was the sweater, when I walked out to show her, all the girls in the store (the workers, there weren't any customers, it was near closing time), stopped and stared. All giggling. A few came over to ask if we 'needed help'. My fiancee' said that when I went back to the dressing room, that one of them told her, "Don't mind us, you won't believe the things these girls are saying over the headphones" my fiancee' told her, "oh i could imagine" She liked the fact that they weren't trying to pick up on me, just admiring, and admitting to it.
So, all in all you do get more attention, people do act differently. But is it all good? No a lot of it is negative. A lot of people are quick to be jerks, when in reality if they just got off their asses, and worked hard at something, they could look good too.
ps. You should start a thread about the big guys who treat others like dicks for no reasons, just because they are big and can get away with it. Those assholes are a whole other story....

i cover it up as much as possible.. i wear xxl shirts with sleeves that go to my elbows.. baggy pants.. keep it conservative. i hate going out seeing everyone wearing shirts with their sleeves rolled up or those tight ass v-neck shirts. im by no means huge (6'1 235), but i dont like showing anything off. by the way.. the BIG GUY comments do get annoying..

I would have to say the "what do you eat" or "what are you on" have to be the most annoying ones...like i have some secret food that no one else knows about. If i did have this food why would I tell them about it...normally I just say "everything" or "a lot". I am not big enough to catch a lot of stares really..but I am 5'8 210 lbs lean...I catch more stares in the gym cause I am pretty strong for my size. Tonight I was messing around and put 5 plates on each side of the hammer incline(it looks cool as hell in magazines) and banged out 3 reps...it was about closing time at the gym but the 3 or 4 guys that were left all watched and then questioned me after doing it. Hopefully in a couple years I make "freak" status where I walk by people on the beach/street and they fall over or something.
