Samantha was a regular member of her local gym. It’s not unusual for her to spend her nights there. In fact, she had been a regular member of this gym for the past couple of years. Nothing terrible has happened to her before. However, this day was different. She did not expect things to take a terrible turn. Throughout her entire workout routine, Samantha can feel gazes from other people at the gym. Unfortunately, it didn’t stop there…
Everybody At The Gym Stares At Her – She’s Shocked When She Finds Out Why
Everyone was staring at her
At first, she didn’t think anything of it. She was doing warm-up exercises and sweating a lot, so her mind was pretty occupied. Upon taking a small three-minute break, she realized that the staring didn’t stop. What is going on here? At this point, she was not having a good time at all. However, she kept going. She was determined to finish her routine.
Everyone was staring at her
What was there to see?
Samantha could not understand their reaction. What is going on, and why everyone seemed like they want to see something? This had been her gym for years, and other members who had usually greeted her or, at the very least, left her alone were now staring at her and pointing! It was fruitless to use other areas of the gym since she would be followed everywhere. Was there anything interesting to see?

That’s The Last Straw
This was the last straw. Samantha felt as if she was being pushed to her breaking point in this situation, but suddenly someone revealed the reason why. The poor woman couldn’t believe what she was hearing… But why were everyone’s eyes on Samantha? What was it about her that made her so noticeable, and would she ever be able to overcome her embarrassment?
That’s The Last Straw
A first strange look
Samantha checked in to the gym with her membership card that day. The lady behind the desk was new, but Samantha felt they had met before. He gave her a weird look as he checked her card. But why is this the case? Immediately, something seemed weird…

Warming up
Samantha starts her warm-up routine when she puts her bag in the locker. The warm-up is one of her favorite portions because it allows her to disappear into her own world. Despite this, she is still obsessed with the people around her…
Warming up
Talking about her
Two women are clearly staring at Samantha from the machine next to her. Samantha continues her training, but when she looks back, she finds that these women are concerned with her. Others appear to be talking about her as well, but Samantha cannot understand them owing to the loud music.
Talking about her
Surprising group session
Samantha finishes her training by attending a small group session, like she does every Tuesday. These group events are frequently short spinning classes. The normal trainer appeared to be anticipating the arrival of the members, but his reaction to Samantha’s entrance was surprising…
Surprising group session
Access denied
According to the trainer, there is no place for her. “I’m sorry, not this time!” He glances at her as if he has no idea who she is, despite the fact that she attends this group session every Tuesday! Samantha had no idea what this was.
Access denied
It must be her
Samantha arrives home, bewildered and astounded by what happened the night before. But when she gets home and unwinds after a shower, she tells herself that it’s all in her head and nothing is wrong. Samantha was completely unaware…
It must be her
Boxing session with work
She was invited to join her coworkers at the gym for a boxing session a few days later. Samantha saw this as a fantastic opportunity to work out again that week. Wasn’t this a fantastic chance for her to form a sort of friendship with her coworkers? In retrospect, she should have kept her professional and personal lives separate…

Borrowing gym clothes
When she got home, Samantha noticed that none of her clothes fit her. They were all too big! This was all thanks to her weight loss progress. Unfortunately, she needs to buy new clothes. And worse, she had no time for shopping right now. Thankfully, Nancy, her coworker, was nice enough to offer her some clothes. Little did she know, it was her biggest mistake…

Arriving at the gym
As they arrive at the gym, Samantha is greeted with a friendly face. This made Samantha feel comfortable. She made a mental note to go back there on Tuesday. Then, she started to workout like everything was normal.

The trainer comes in
The trainer from the previous Tuesday then steps in just as the boxing session is about to end. What brought him here? He never even taught boxing. To Samantha’s amazement, he goes to Nancy and speaks with her. Do they know each other?

Looking for Nancy
They appear to be having a serious conversation. Samantha didn’t want to look nosy, so she decided not to listen and returned to the locker room. She decides to talk to Nancy after everyone has gone back to work. Nancy, on the other hand, had no intention of talking to Samantha…
Looking for Nancy
Finding Nancy
Samantha waited for them to finish talking. She washed up and returned back to her work clothes. However, when she looked for Nancy, she was greeted with a subtle hostility. She didn’t know what was happening, but she thanked her for the clothes and promised to put them in the laundry. She also said she would return it as soon as possible. However, this made Nancy furious. “No!” she said. “Keep it.” She smiled, but it wasn’t friendly at all.
Finding Nancy
Returning in shock
Samantha walks away, puzzled, and returns to her work. She’s certain that something strange is happening, and she has to discover what it is before things become worse. So what will be her next move? Sadly, she had no idea what was about to happen next.
Returning in shock
Will he be there?
Samantha decides to contact her gym using her work phone and a new voice. She asks whether the trainer will be present tonight, believing he is the next step in determining what is happening. But how will she approach him?
Will he be there?’
Running off
Samantha knows the exact time she should arrive because she has been notified of the classes he will teach that evening. She walks in and immediately spots him. He also appeared to notice her. He makes a quick decision and then runs off! What was he trying to hide from her?
Running off
Nowhere
He was nowhere to be found, not even in the class he was supposed to teach. Samantha is losing her cool and decides to exercise to calm down; now that she’s here and her plan isn’t working, why not make her night a bit more enjoyable? Samantha’s fury, though, would give way to really worry…
Nowhere
Staring gym members
Immediately following her warm-up, the gym members are looking at her again. They’ve arrived in a group, and Samantha can’t take it any longer! She opts for the treadmills. This way, she can face the remainder of the gym. Yet, jogging was the very last thing she should have done.
Staring gym members
Sweating
She pours all of her feelings into the mix. She sweats like she’s never sweated before, and when she’s done, people don’t just stare at her; they holler at her! What did they have to say? And how would Samantha get out of this mess?
Sweating
Allergy
She demands an explanation from one of the gym’s irate members. Samantha’s new training clothing caused her skin to react negatively, causing her to sweat. She’d turn blazing red all over and get swollen ears. Everyone, even the trainer, stayed away from her for fear of spreading the sickness.
Allergy
A new gym
Samantha bursts into tears and quickly asserts that nothing is wrong with her. They are thrilled. She decides to join another gym to start over, and she decides to keep Nancy’s training clothes as a form of retaliation. The final word.
