I was really not expecting an old dude named matt to ramble to me about his whole life story, how he tore his hamstring, how he bikes to the gym, and then preaching to me about jesus in between my pressing sets.
He even trash talked ronnie coleman and said bodybuilding is about ego. He also talked about how itās important to have a great diet. He mentioned how one of his friends died from eating a lot of red meat.
He was a nice dude but it was kinda fucking annoying cause in between this conversation he fist bumped me and said I gotta finish my workout then went to his squat rack. But, he would still keep talking would eventually walk over to where I was. He did this three times.
Why do I keep running into these uhh āGym NPCs (non playable character) ā
I swear the memes on Instagram are trueā¦.
But then again I would prefer matts over the form police. He did say I was strong.
I would suggest caring less about other peopleās opinions and what they do but hey you do you man. I mean what bothers you so much about this? Have you really reflected on it?
Just curious.
Itās not his opinions that bother me. I assumed he just wanted someone to talk to. I have very limited time today and I was not in the mood to talk. I have to make sure I get my meals in anddddd I have to take an accounting midterm I didnāt study for. Itās due today lol.
I see. You could always kindly express that you are in a hurry lol.

Kinda random but I donāt really understand how you befriend a stranger when youāre most likely never gonna see them again.
Donāt you actually have to constantly see them and talk to them? I always made friends in proximity.
Letās say I walk up to this dude named billy bob and we have small talk. Most likely Iām never gonna see billy bob again but itās weird to ask for his number or Instagram.
Iām the worst person to ask. Iām actually 30 and struggling to make friends now. It isnāt easy. I have 2 (+1 if you include my wife.) And they live 6.5 hours away. Something I think though from trying to meet people close by on the internet since covid is still limiting things is that it seems everyone kind of thinks that it is weird to make that leap and no one wants to make the first move. You just kind of have to to for it I think and take the risk of sounding weird but take that with a grain of salt I suppose. But again I suck at this so my advice probably sucks lol

This sounds kind of jaded to me. I mean it is ok to ask a random girl you think is hot out on a date but you canāt ask a guy at the gym if he needs a workout buddy or something. I mean everyone starts out as a stranger till you put the time in to know them. But this is the reason I said take it with a grain of salt. Iām not suggesting invite someone to your house or something if you donāt know them.
Just my opinion.
I donāt think thatās ok either, if it helps.
I get to know someone before I have a relationship with them.
Wait I thought that was the point of dating though? Arenāt you supposed to ask a girl on a date then take her to somewhere fun to get to know her?
I mean that kind of seems like you are leaving things up to chance to actually spend time with people. How do you meet people and spend the time to get to know them if you donāt orchestrate it?
Also I want to point out a date doesnāt imply a relationship it is the means of getting to know someone.
Yk what cstan I think I mightāve misinterpreted pwnās words cause I remember him saying he took his wife out on a date at carlās jr. as a first date.
But am I not supposed to ask a cute girl on a date or am I supposed to be her friend for awhile. Wouldnāt I just get friend-zoned if I acted as her friend?
Idk iām confused
I told you the story of my wife and I.
I have befriended co-workers, acquaintances, fellow students and friends of friends on many occasions.
With the intent of forming a relationship, no?

We were good friends well before that. It was just the first time we āwent outā for food, so we call it our first date.
The friend zone isnāt a thing. Thatās a toxic internet idea. Flush that stuff quick

Look all Iāll say is from experience being introverted sometime you have to be more intentional about these things.
