So this girl is 18 and I'm 24. I approached her at a gym (she worked in the cafe). She was heavy with IOI's but due to her being 17 at the time I just cut contact. I stopped paying the 80 a month for that gym and did my workouts elsewhere due to my career falling off. (no she had no clue, and was used to seeing me in a suit)

Fast forward to she's 18 now. She asked to workout with me with a guest pass I asked her to get for me once and I pushed her pretty hard. She liked it and I jokingly made a comment on exchanging a gym membership for personal training.

She hopped on it in a second and agreed. She paid 100 dollars for a new member fee, 80 for the membership, and bought me a new pair of running shoes because I didn't have any. Just randomly offered me them.

You can imagine my slight happiness. "A chick who sacrifices"

I escalated on the first night after working out and was hard rejected. I played it cool and told her I'll see her around.

A few days passed and she messaged me asking if I wanted to still train her. I waited 2 days to agree (I genuinely wasn't sure) because the membership alone was worth it. The training went really well. I touched her often to show her form, especially on her hips and butt from time to time. And overall she was very receptive.

Fast forward to one month of training, I've been escalating in the gym and ignoring all attention seeking behavior outside of it. Basically leveling the playing field with the "if your physically unavailable I'm emotionally unavailable"

So I end up having to move to Cali in a few days and she wants me to say goodbye. Normally I wouldn't but I had flaked on her 3 times previous to it so I agreed. We talk and I'm gaming for an hour, I take her out to my car before I go, I'm trying to escalate and it's still not happening. She drops the "best friend" card and I was stunned.

Now Before you jump to conclusions I really don't care what happens with her, I already said bye and that maybe I'll see her in a year. I more want to know.. Like what the fuck kind of dynamic this is. I'm not her beta, and I'm not her alpha. Do you think this was just a business transaction?

I'm all ears trp
