Is it just me.. or does anyone have to get use to certain things that come after gaining size, or musculature. Well.. moreso how people treat you after a certain change. For me I'm having to adjust to the phrase/term "big guy".. It makes me cringe. And i know that person saying it means well and it is even supposed to be complimentary. I was always thin... so.. up until 2 years ago no one called me big guy and to say such sounds a little alien.. I don't view myself as big and i automatically thing "damn.. big? how big? what does he fucking mean?" before i center in on the thought "well.. i must look big and muscly."
There is the reality that when you do pack on the pounds.. that the way people react to you on a daily basis changes. you might get more stares or people might think you are big and mean and stay away from you. I was recently taken a back by the reaction of a teenager towards me.. he looked absolutely frightened of me in my old private gym.. then afterwards we got into a little conversation and he said "you look like you can kick my ass man!".. and i wasn't charmed.. i was kinda like " really? No... i'm not that way." I never stopped to think that in changing my body i would also be changing how people relate to me.. who finds me attractive and who doesn't find me attractive. (i had one old boyfriend say i was too "big for him" and it was gross) To which i laughed.. first i am NOT that big... and secondly... fuck him and his flabby pancake ass.
anyhow... i just wanted to explore this topic with other guys.. do you know what feeling i am talking about?

Caught me a little offguard. 180 isn't a little guy... Will take some getting used to.
