Reply to comment by [deleted] in 29M looking for Friends or Dates by [deleted]

All those things are fun, but what people don't think of is how difficult it can be to actually start conversations or make actual friendships. I'm like the most talkative person I know. I talk to strangers like it's my job, but when it comes to moving that chatting into trying to be friends... that's where I struggle.

May I ask what kind of gym it is? I've always felt out of place at gyms, even though I enjoy working out. A town nearby opened a community center with a gym some years back, and it was great. You see all types of people, and it's definitely more of a place for anyone to go. I never feel out of place there, however, the "regular gym" in town straight up frightens me.

Oh ok. I've never been to one of those. I live in a pretty rural area, but for some reason we have lots of gyms.

I watched a YouTube video about that whole thing. After watching it, I think I'd feel awkward there too, for different reasons. Lol.

I gotta find that video for you. You'll probably find some humor in it.

Found it. Yeah, it goes into detail about that alarm too. I'm just a loud person...I feel like I wouldn't be able to be in the same room as it without accidentally setting it off somehow. 😄🤷‍♀️

Lol well that's good! I have one of those giant water bottles. I love it because I drink a ton of water even when not working out. Stay hydrated 😁👍

Well I'm glad you've been exposed to a wonderful part of YouTube (in my opinion). And keep chugging the water! If I was anywhere near there I'd offer to hang out and let you be scared of me in person. Lol

Just realized you sent me Scott Cramer's video about PF. I watched it way back when it came out (because I enjoy me some Scott Cramer) but watching it again lol
