Click For Summary
The discussion centers on navigating uncomfortable social situations at a health club, particularly regarding a male member who makes others feel uneasy. The original poster expresses discomfort with this individual, who frequently engages in conversation and seems overly interested in new female members. Despite wanting to make friends, the poster is concerned about appearing unfriendly if they ignore him. Suggestions include using earbuds to avoid conversations, asking other women about their experiences with him, and trying to engage with other members to build a social network. The conversation highlights the importance of trusting one's instincts about uncomfortable interactions while also seeking ways to connect with others in a new environment. Ultimately, the poster finds some success in socializing and is encouraged to continue building relationships with other members.

Pepe may have to find a new gym to "exercise" in.

Pepe has moved on and has found himself a new interest this week. I saw him chatting with her, and it was going very well.. until her boyfriend walked around the corner.
