Joined a new gym, got creeped out, and went back again with backup!

SO I finally joined a gym, after constantly searching for a place to workout and be near by my home. Hooray! I had my husband, Ian Heydecke of Body By Ian  make up a workout plan. My husband came with me to run through the workouts for the week. Well the first and second day went well. The third day was not so good. I was trying to figure out where everything is in the gym when a strange old man came up to me. AT first he was helpful but than he was just plain creepy. He said he was a personal trainer and he could help me with my weight loss journey but the way he approached me made me uncomfortable and a bit scared. It was just weird. He smelled like beer or some type of liquor...it was fucking weird! He was just rude and strange comments while still having the nerve to try to convince me to be one of his clients. 

Like dude you smell like liquor at the gym and you think I will trust you with my health!
Are you for real! Like I was experiencing a really really uncomfortably weird emotions. 

Now I have two side to me. The one side is super nice and open to almost everything and new ideas (within reason). The other side is like the incredible hulk and it takes a damn near earthquake to get me to that level. 

Neither side came out...just tears and a defeated emotion came out. I literally cried when I left the gym. I didn't finish the workout and walked to the bus stop in tears. 
I felt like I was not good enough. I was being judge and I do not even know I was on trial! 

SO I called my husband but he could stop my tear. My husband decided to call the big guns- My Dad! We had a in depth decision and I finally realize that I have a few things I need to work out in regards to my workout and what I really want.

After a day of rest and getting my life and not going back to that gym and going in (a.k.a Going into Hulk Mode!) I brought backup..my husband! 

So far my exercise routine is going fine. I tweeked that to more of a full body workout using more dumbbells, kettlebells, and biking and less using machines....oh and squats! 
Sidenote - Squats are a bitch but my butt is shaping up! 

Hopefully I will not see that weird old man again and if I do...backup is here! 

Only I would join a new gym, get creeped out, and went back again with backup!
