So I have a male friend/associate whom on occassion we hook up and start having to reconnect, we talk like friends etc. my issue is I've been feeling like I don't like their company anymore as we both are on two different rows/shelfs of thinking, he's obsessed with woman (checking out Instagram models, telling stories of whom he should of hooked up with etc.), I'm basically a MGTOW with a bit of purple on occasion (I flux by ultimately I'm not necessarily openly thirsty), I sometimes feed into the idea of getting at hot chicks for fun but my own morals and ethics keep me from realistically trying to hook up as I care about people's feelings and won't want to lead anyone on (even when honest women can catch feelings especially if you seem like a decent catch as I'm not broke thank God and am well off, not ballerific but definitely can live comfortably), we tend to hangout at the gym, he throws shade (I figure he's joking sense we always been that way in highschool), he's unfit not necessarily fat but definitely not buff, like me. We workout have fun, talk about life and dreams, but sometimes I get this feeling of baby sitting and feeling stuck, I haven't had many friends in life and it's even harder to find decent friends with my work schedule being the way it is (time frame, not necessarily amount of time), I've been living like a social monk, and most things outside of the gym I can't really meet new people to socialize sith, my work is me being with a client all day (8 to 10 hrs) abd I don't get exposed to many people.

My friend is 26, he's been single legitimately all his life, he "dated" one girl, he's been on and between jobs sense highschool, been without a license and doesn't drive, he pretty much hasn't seemed to progress at all but always talks about it which is annoying and being the car pool gets boring real quick, he's not considerate of my time or my interest, and he's been draining to he around. I tend to stay from him until I feel bad about it. I skipped out the gym so I can pretend I was too busy to go.

I just want better friends who can be beneficial to me (like any friendship should be). I always feel like the adult and having to hear someone complain and go on about things they don't even attempt.
