It's summer break and I'm kind of lonely moving out from college dorms for summer break. The only chance I really get to meet new people is at the gym. I try to talk to people, but the problem is I'm just someone who doesn't have much to say. It's not like I'm shy and not assertive, even if these were my friends I wouldn't really have anything to say to them.
When I have something to say it's usually a compliment like telling someone they have a nice shirt or about how much weight they're lifting but it doesn't really go past a thank you. Today I complimented a dude's tattoo and I feel like an idiot because he told me he got it to cover up another tattoo and I should have just asked him what he was covering up.
Any advice on actually getting into conversations with people and also more reasons to talk to people? I guess it's a bit harder here because a lot of the people do not understand English 🙁
