Does anyone test people to see if they're worthwhile to befriend at the gym?
Personally I pretend to be DYEL and ask people for "advice" on my routine and how to deadlift and squat.
If they give good advice I know it might be worth speaking to them further.
If they give retarded advice I safely conclude they're an idiot and I can gain nothing from speaking with them so I nod, agree and ignore them from then on.

No because I don't live in an autistic anime fantasy
>pretend
if you think knowing how to deadlift and squat is an indicator of success then you're just as stupid.

ye man just like how brown people get typecasted as the terrorist
you also "pretend" to be a DYEL

People generally try to befriend me. Especially the manlets and such. I just treat them as acquaintances, no need to be strange about it. Even if they are small guys.

You have psychological issues, get help.

I can just tell if they know what theyre doing. I like people who train
Honestly I won't go the gym with friends and don't talk to anyone there - it's my me time and I'm too busy lifting anyway
I nod at the guys I see often and thats about it

That's interesting. I usually subtly manipulate people into acting like a DYEL and asking me for advice. Then I give them shit advice, and if they ignore me after that I safely conclude they're an idiot and I can gain nothing from speaking with them.

Dude I love putting on my full-body girdle that's three sizes too small to look like I don't lift.

Have a few friends at the gold since I switched over. They're all twice my age though so I don't mind any life advice they offer. One guy in particular is a bit quirky but really nice, he owns his own auto repair shop and he's helped me out twice now free of charge
