I go to the gym a few times a week. Two work outs and one class (which I really enjoy) Sometimes work gets in the way and I can't go but that's ok because it's just me going by myself.
A good friend has decided to join a gym to lose some weight. She mentioned wanting to go to a specific class but was a bit nervous as she'd never been before. As it's similar to my class, I offered to go with her (and paid extra as a guest) We both enjoyed it but I prefer my gym and my class.
Now I keep getting texts asking when I'm coming to this class with her. A few times I've had to cancel because of work commitments and she's been quite huffy. I've also realised this is an extra cost on top of my own gym membership which seems a bit silly.
It all came to a head when she said she didn't feel I was supporting her and her weight loss and she didn't feel comfortable going to the gym by herself.
AIBU? I went once, the class was fine, she enjoyed it. The most interaction we had was making semi-exhausted faces at each other between the songs. It seems silly that a grown woman won't go to a gym class unaccompanied!

To wonder why it's so difficult to go to the gym alone?
