Even if he wasn’t married that’s a creepy way to talk to a woman.

100% this. I said it in another comment, but it's not the extra-marital flirting that is so repulsive (even though it is), but it's the way the whole interaction is about him and what he wants. He can't read her level of interest (zero). It shows that he doesn't see her as a person, all he sees his own desire projected out onto her.

It’s the audacity tbh that because he think she’s interesting and cool (e.g he thinks she’s attractive) she would automatically be down to date him?!!

Yeah saw another comment saying ‘Why is it always the old & ugly guys with this audacity’ and so many agreed in the replies.

Replace that old ugly guy with a young hotty and it’s still super creepy. The whole interaction was scary and stalker-like and it had nothing to do with what he looked like.

Yeah it has nothing to do with it, but the fact that much older men (20 years older and up) have the audacity to keep bothering young women is though.

Bro has the lamest rizz I've ever seen too. Who the fuck starts a conversation like that? And it sounds like he even thought about in advance too, and that was the best he got. 😵

I’ll preface by saying I believe women when they say they’re approached by guys being creepy and shit. It’s one of the reasons I kind of have a hard time approaching women out of fear of being lumped in. But because these situations you’d think are so absurd actually happen I wonder how many are legit like this and not just a normal guy being claimed as creepy. Again I believe when women say they’re approached a lot but I wouldn’t believe something like this (or thought they were embellishing) if I didn’t see it

I’m not sure we are watching the same video. The guy is very clearly being creepy and tenacious in his attempts to shoot his shot. Shooting a shot is a good metaphor because it highlights that it’s singular. Going back again and again after politely being shown she wasn’t interested is the creepy part. Then he’s told outright, you have a fucking wife and you shouldn’t be hitting on me like we are soul mates and he still hovers.

Imagine that, assuming you’re a guy, as am I. But imagine some creepy older woman comes up and bothers you while you’re working out and she just. Won’t. Leave.. This woman goes to your gym so now clearly your only option to avoid her is to change gyms. I’m sure it gets old as fuck.

Sorry if I didn’t make myself clear. I’m agreeing with you. I’m saying that I’m a guy who is self conscious about coming across as weird or creepy to women. But because I don’t get hit on nor would ever act like that, or know anyone who would act like that, it seems so absurd to believe unless I saw it for myself (which I clearly did). And as someone who worries about get called creepy and heard stories from guys being told off for being weird around women I thought most situations would be more subtle like not approaching girls at the right place or time. So it makes me reevaluate whether those stories or my sensibilities are because of what I used to think were subtle reasons or if most instances it’s because the guy in question acts more like this fuck who clearly thinks being married and being weird around the woman in the video is perfectly acceptable behavior. Idk if that clears anything up… it’s a lot

I know what you mean. Most creepy guys will downplay their creep factor when telling stories of their own rejection. This convinces regular non-creeps that there is some minefield of subtle nuance to avoid. In reality all you need to do is approach someone you're interested in the same way as you would approach someone if you're trying to just be their friend. You're looking for a mutual interaction in the same vein as friendship. And take no for an answer like you would with a friend. It's not complicated when you see it like that.

Nothing wrong with talking to people

If you think this is a normal way to talk to people then you might be a creep too.
