too embarrassed to go to the gym

I'll own up and say it's 100% my fault lol.

At the gym, there's these two girls. I remember one night when I walked by them and the Blonde girl stared at me like :open_mouth: all the way through.

The next night, as I was using one of the machines, they stood very close to me, doing nothing but laugh. I got in a funny mood, and gave them a funny face like :angry: as I left, and they caught me and laughed even more.

Oops

    Hiya!!

    It sounds understandable that you pulled a face at them if they were laughing and staring at you, it seems like a very human reaction to want to show your disapproval of that! You have as much right as anyone to be in the gym so people trying to make you feel uncomfortable there sounds super frustrating. Are they always there when you are?

    @Leyla sometimes they are, sometimes they aren’t.

    Oh man, that sucks. Its not nice that they're behaving that way to you. Perhaps there is a friend or someone you could ask to go with you? When I used to go to the gym I felt a bit uncomfortable and self-conscious but having a friend come with me helped soo much, and despite how I felt it turned into something I actually enjoyed doing and had a lot of fun spending time with my friend.

    @Serxphic its fine, as long as I’m not near them lol. I already go with my brother, but we do different exercise routines. The only time we’re together is if we’re both using the treadmills.
