:yea: fortunately I have lost a lot of my love for swimming since I was a kid (now that I think about it, I wonder if there's a connection but probably not), but I understand. It's made me feel uncomfortable for a while.
When I do go, I have always worn a swim shirt, might be something to think about.
Honestly, my disinterest in swimming I think mostly stems from adults being boring. Like.. when they say they want to go swim, they mean they want to float around and get drunk. What happened to spinning underwater, diving down in the deep-end, running around the pool to make a whirlpool, jumping into the pool and splashing each other, playing macro-polo, playing with toys, etc? Granted, that critique feels like it basically applies to most of adult socializing. No wonder I don't like socializing much...
But now I'm more hesitant to go swimming. Not out to enough people to justify suddenly wearing a shirt and feel like there's been enough minor changes that immediate family might notice if I were shirtless. Rather not wear support unless it has a functional use.
