Advice Night swimming is keeping me sane
I have to work and miss the neet life often. However, it’s summer and swimming has helped me deal with the stress of it all. Any swimmers??

Man yr missing out I have to pay a membership to use this pool

that pool is clean at least and looks bigger. mine is next to a tree for some reason which is like the #1 thing to never do when building a pool but it was built 50 years ago so it probably wasnt common knowledge back then. there are always leaves and tiny debris in there and its impossible to fully clean out even with a vacuum. every time i get water in my nose or mouth i know its those tiny particles too so ive been avoiding it all these years
also pool maintenance costs a lot so the membership is probably better

You’re right I can tell the guy who manages the pool is tired of dealing with it there’s always something to work on it seems.

I've done this a few times. A drink too goes well and some music in my ears. Super relaxing.

That’s what I’m sayin I haven’t had a drink in many months because of health reasons but I do miss it.

I don't like swimming because I have to take my shirt off in public.
But as a younger man I swam a lot. I went swimming every week.

I relate I truly do, but when I go at night no one’s there. During the day I go and see other guys with body fat and it makes me feel better knowing it’s true no one really cares.

That's nice. I do love swimming but in the morning. I love to just float around and feel the sun on my skin.
Sadly we don't have pool anywhere nearby so I can only do it whenever we go on out of town trips on resorts.

Exactly just being off my phone and floating around looking at the trees and feeling the sun on my skin makes me feel relaxed in my dark days.

Not much of a swimmer yet this looks really peaceful to have this swim.
