I regret ever socially interacting with anyone at my gym
I despise the fact I have to constantly say "Hi" and "Bye" to these people at the gym who I don't actually interact with outside of the gym
I would change gyms, but the gym I go to is the only good gym in this area with tons of equipment that Id never find anywhere else, and would take too much room in my house to buy for home
If you want some good advice, DO NOT FRICKING TALK TO ANYONE IN THE GYM, HEADPHONES ON, DONT LOOK AT ANYONE, IF ANYONE TRIES TALKING TO YOU, ACT LIKE YOURE DEAF/moronic, TRUST ME, IT WILL SAVE YOU A TON OF ANNOYANCE IN THE FUTURE
DONT BUILD UP A SOCIAL DEBT IN THE GYM, JUST FRICKING DONT
Sounds to me like you're a lazy homosexual
Anon you sound like like someone that creates problems on his head
No you dont understand
I had it good for years, REALLY good, I didn't talk to anyone, I didnt even look at anyone, it was FRICKING GREAT.
Then I started reading some shit online you know,
>bro start talking to people bro, its so good talking to people bro, you can make connections n shit bro, just be a better person and talk to people bro, its great!
I dont know why, that moronic shitty advice psyop'd me into unironically interacting with people, and I fricking regret it after I figured out hey I actually have to keep interacting with these people every single time I see them... what the frick, nobody mentioned that part.
How about you just stop Interacting with them? Wouldnt that solve your problem immediately?
You dont have to be rude about it, dont ignore them when they talk to you, just dont go out of your way to greet them. They'll catch the hint soon and you go back to being strangers.
Most normies irl stick to their own friend circle and not let outsiders in
Why would you want to hang with them anyway. I’m not saying be uncharismatic, definitely smile and interact if someone comes up to you. But hangout with them and let them know you personally? For what? What are you gonna do with normies?
people like you should never have learned the word psyop
Got it, thanks.

There is literally zero reason to speak to someone unless it directly results in sex. “Friends” are worthless, everyone just drags you down, no one is interesting they’re all drones
Sigma. There's some truth to it. No one actually gives a shit about what you're chatting about. Just be friendly, but don't be going more than thay
Having friends directly leads to sex in a lot of cases though. How many people getting laid all the time have no friends?
There's no point in me having friends since I'm 5'7 and gain nothing from a friend circle i.e. sex with women. I'm better off alone and waiting for women to approach me
You're a drone.
No actually, you oversocialised morons are the drones. Literally fricking preprogrammed speech, opinions, interests, taste in films music TV all decided by whatever the hivemind tells you to. None of it matters, all that matters for me now is to have sex and never speak to women ever again
This right here, is the most based advice. The dude who said “muh friends get you laid” how many stories have you heard where the best friend snags his buddies girl? That’s right! Friends are worthless, they’ll wiener block you at best! what am I gonna do go drink with those morons and talk about ballgames lol! I only go out with girls, and then when I get a gf I don’t even need to talk to anyone that’s not my family or my homosexual coworkers.
>tfw gym has an angry sexy powerlifting girl who walks around with her chest puffed out
I'm in love bros
Thank frick I'm a snowhomie. Imagine having to acknowledge literal strangers, much less greet them.
The only person I've ever greeted in the gym is the cleaning lady, and I only saw her once, and that was only so she wouldn't feel that I disrespect her because of her job if I didn't say good morning
Nothing good comes from interactions with other people
You sound sweet
Homegym masterrace always and forever.
it's not that deep brother, relax
this pepe has a glowBlack person marking on it
if you save it they will come and rape you
Pull yourself together you don't have to say shit or do anything. Worst case nod head. Simple as. It takes barely anything to acknowledge someone's existence
Oh frick you c**t
You’re the fricking problem
>just acknowledge their existence bro!
That’s exactly how it fricking starts and you open Pandora’s box
So don't then? That's what I'm saying. You said hi to someone once you aren't indebted to them. Don't even acknowledge their existence they won't even care and if they do who cares. You will though because otherwise you wouldn't be making this thread. I'm not trying to argue with you I say this in the kindest possible way. Grow a backbone
I hate this too but isn’t it a little weird to lift at the same gym for 10 years, seeing the same people, and never saying a single word to them?
I don't talk to anyone at my gym
It
Based and redpilled. This is why I go to the gym looking as disheveled as possible whilst wearing pic related
Looks like /misc/ shit
I want to make friends with people at the gym. I am envious of people who can strike up conversation with strangers. I still waiting for someone to approach me but nobody does.
Gym is for lifting not for making friends
All places are for making friends
No they aren't, people only go out with a friend group and don't let new people in. If you leave school with no friends you will never have friends
This doesn't happen in my country
Chudspeak
Gyms are terrible
I want to do my work out and leave
This is only true in small cities or towns
I have met a new group of friends in my late 20s
No, you're literally just someone they speak to now and again. They don't view you as a real "friend". It's all a homosexual ass game with no reward unless you're 6ft and 8/10 face minimum
They literally are at my house every night
One of them is now my roommate
Give it a couple months
Actual autist
Nah you're wrong
And if they do I'll move on and hangout with other people that I've mrt
Sure, and the process will just repeat over and over again
Yeah so?
I'm fine with that IF that happens
So far I have done everything I wanted and more with this group of friends.
And there's no sign at the moment that's going to change.
There is literally 20-30 dudes at my gym who I will see on a near daily basis who we all address each other as “dude, bro, or big dog” and know we can’t remember each others names.
On Thanksgiving one dude was going to fight another dude and they were yelling at each other on a machine two feet away from me, they are both bros tho so can’t pick a side
My problem is that you have to do this shit but these relationships never escalate past that. Like, why do I have to fricking greet you multiple times a week and chitchat with you when we're never gonna get closer. (No I will not escalate because I don't actually like them)
I enjoy talking to people. Everyone even homeless people.
Oh jeez can I ever relate. I’ve been really good about not inviting conversation at my current gym since I moved here. I got sucked into saying hellos and good byes to several people at my old gym and it was really bogging me down. I just want to listen to music and lift in my own headspace. You’re right, once your open that door you can’t close it without offending people.
i can relate. i never talk to people in the bus even though i know they're working at the same company as i do. trust me, you don't want to have convos early in the morning before work.
I've been working out for 7 years and never once talked to another person.
t. Homegym masterrace
I'm old it feels weird all these young 20's look like highschoolers.
Also yeah, there's some people I nod at or whatever but I'm not there to hangout.
It's a "fitness club" though so idk
