So I take alot of supplements and constantly get asked what I take and why... I start talking and instantly lose their attention... I probably sound like a Sheldon kind of know it all...
It seems like I take alot of time in researching and understanding all of what I need to take, but everyone else around me is on a Whey, creatine, and preworkout only planet...

Does anyone else run into this kind of situation w friends or average gym goers?

Yes, ppl ask the questions but they immediately loose interest when I try to explain the answer. I have no problem with ppl not caring, cus the truth is that no1 really fuckin cares.

But what I do hate is being asked a question and you not paying attention to the answer. Nowadays when someone asks me why I take something I will guage ahead how interested they actually are and if I think there not going to pay attention my answer to why I take something is . because I feel like it

Exactly! I also kinda feel out what kind of level they're on with their existing knowledge of supplements and training...

About 100% of the time. In my opinion, many people just want "the what" handed to them, without interest in "the why".

If they ask, when I get that TMI look, I stop. You should hear me describing camshaft technology to my wife - talk about a very kind "why are you telling me?" look.
