Claus the stalker, a new series on TV. When she first saw you it was "HI!" but then she remembered you were batshit crazy at work so her flight mode engaged.
Kellerman, the first person in history to take the question "What you been up to?" as a legit concern or question, when bumping into someone. and from a woman. 🤣
This reminds me of the Truman Show movie, when Truman walks down the street in the morning and the neighbors say hi, they smile and talk to him and no one really means it. They just play their part. The world is full of pretense.
I think mostly she is a person that just does small talk for small talk's sake. But when you started actually talking about your life, she didn't know what to expect and wanted to end the conversation. Yes her words said tell me, but I think she was expecting a "How are you doing?" "I'm good, you?" "Oh I'm good too" conversation. And that be the end of it. I think the "Keep in touch" is more of a polite thing to say like "Bless you" or "gesundheit" without really thinking about the words she just said meant.
It’s not polite. Don’t tell people to keep in touch if you don’t want them to. Pretty simple to actually think about what you’re saying before you say it!
@@666Wizardsleeve I'm from small town northern Minnesota, a place with a similar regional cultural to several parts of Canada. And it isn't uncommon for people to say goodbye using the idiom "keep in touch". And they may or may not actually want to keep in touch, or just similar small talk conversation the next time your paths randomly cross. You're technically not wrong thinking it's impolite to not genuinely mean it. But I'm not actually wishing an actor to get a broken bone when I tell them "break a leg" before a show I've also traveled enough to know that this is an odd thing about where I grew up, but there's actually a lot of weird subtext because people often don't say things directly because you're seen as "too intense and direct" saying evening that you mean exactly as you mean it, instead with several layers of politeness
Ha ha. In Australia, for some reason I'm not sure of, it's considered bad form to say "Break a leg" and we say "Chookers"! I am old and grumpy, unlike Claus :) and I also find it annoying when TH-camrs begin their video with "What's up everybody" as a statement, not a question, and nobody has a chance to answer the question/statement. Keep on Truckin'. @@LuvLikeTruck
The fact that you looked her up using the company docs you kept is lol. You got the nuts to call her up later is funniest shit I’ve heard in damned long time. 😂😂😂. Thanks for sharing this. Lololol. You already know the answers to the questions you asked I am sure. She gonna have your name on some community watch list. Hahahahaha
Claus... Never... ever...ever...ever one more time... ever try to figure out what a woman is thinking. Her smile and bubbliness is fake. "Have a nice day!"... "Keep in touch!" is just something she says. You don't have to change your number... she will never call it. If you see her again ignore her or give her the fake smile and " have a nice day". 😉
That seems logical. ..and u called Her the very next day [ most bea**es will find it kind of creepy ] You should wait at least 3 days, or week or a month or 2 p cmon u payng it too much atention .. u seem to be an expirienced one, i tough uncle Claus is a pleya
She sounds like what I call a "light minded person," which a term I use to describe most people these days. When they ask, "How are you doing?" it is meant more as a superficial greeting than a genuine inquiry. To me, when I run into this type of person, especially if it is just by happen-chance, they act almost as if they got caught in a social snare and their well practiced, almost autonomic response is a frivolous, "How are you?" Their query is to make them feel better because they are trying to get out of the snare, instead of actually investing into an actual conversation that has any depth. They become befuddled and retreat if the question is actually answered, as this lady did with you.
It sounds like she was just engaging in "polite talk". She was just trying to be polite but she didn't intend to have any further or deeper conversation or contact. She probably didn't intend anything negative, rude, or deceptive but in reality, I'd be surprised if she ever contacts you again. I'd just forget about it. Be friendly if you run into her at the gym but don't expect anything further.
People who lie compulsively dont want the whole family in the same room together. Once this continues it drives a wedge in between the family...usually you get to the truth at the wake, but by that time, everyone is all grown up.and it dosent matter anymore. All.was missed forever. Being honest is the best way to go.
I'd suggest it's on the 'lie' spectrum but firmly in the 'avoiding truth' part. It seems an increasing trend to 'ghost' through life, without committing to it. So we get this, rather than the benefits of sincere interactions. I think of it generally, as 'fearful'.
Depends on the situation Claus. Then there are the Narcs and some sit in Government and some sit amongst us. Safe travels to you and family. Happy tanking
Well, It is like you meet someone from the school or old work in the shopping centre and it is too late to "avoid" small talk with them. You ask them how they do but you do not really care at all. I think she did not want to go "around" you in a gym without saying hello, so she just said hello, how are you, but she did not really care. When you called her she did not expect that at all and she was totally not ready for this and you pushed her out of her comfort zone. You really like to push limits, don´t you ? And that´s why I like you :)
That kind of "conversation" is normal in Britain "hey nice to see you - goodbye" 🙂 In the UK it's just polite to say "how are you doing?" Most people that say it don't really want an answer other then "good thanks" less still, care what the answer means but they definitely don't want details lol, they are just acknowledging your existence at that moment, so don't feel bad Mr K
A) she's a NPC person who just faked interest and was friendly just in case she meets you again, or she felt she had to do the "office routine chat" and hopes to never see you again. B) Other option is that she thinks your crazy and stalking her, because most people just can't handle genuine and direct talk and especially not humor. C) she's insecure and afraid and doesn't really know how to have a genuine conversation with a guy she doesn't know well. D) she thinks you're desperate to get a girlfriend, but she either has a hubby/bf or is so stuck in her habits that she thinks having a bf would somehow handicap her. if you call her she probably will think you're a stalker, you can either talk to her in the Gym when you meet her again, invite her to a drink there maybe and chat without being too "weird" or call her again in 2 weeks, but she's probably not worth it, but I can't be sure without seeing her in person.
Hellou Dear Claus! Some people just say some things like talkin automatics without really meaning anything... Those people are more or less waste of time and any effort. They are maybe asking you something, but they won't even listen the answer and their mind is already on something else... they are superficial... and there a lot of them in this world... unfortunately...
Great observation Claus of how some people can't handle social interaction. Don't be too harsh on the socially inept... they, like SPG players, are people too and struggling with reality. Sitting here in Sydney it's great to see your 2 great Aussie icons, Marty and Uluru...... 😬
Hey Claus - I agree with the comments like those of LuvLikeTruck & Signcarpenter - I don't believe she was either lying or being rude, she was simply doing the typical social niceties "dance". You certainly appear to have a very outgoing personality and be open with your thoughts and feelings. But that can be perceived by some people as a bit threatening and aggressive, especially if the person doesn't really know you and was simply doing that "social thing". And your phone call, on the heels of a less-than-stellar conversation at the gym, could also have been perceived as a bit "odd" or unsettling to her. Openness and honesty are great attributes of a relationship but you might want to get past the story's prologue before introducing them too much. And those small lies - i.e. her friendly manner and social niceties at the initial meeting - are just the lubrication of our dealings with each other.
Thing is that you are on a quest for reality, truth and lasting values. A meaningful life. Unfortunately you´ll not find it on the surface and surface is all you´ll get from the MODERN world. Fortunately you like nature and have a dog. Dogs are vvery truthfull beings.
I feel for your impassioned side of the "conversation" and it was cut short of the climax. But the really big issue I want to address is how Marty is all into you and your affection to him regardless of what you are saying into the camera. His pawing at your hand when you stopped give him rubs tells the tale. You could talk all night about anything and everything as long as you give him attention, plus getting the door when he rings the bell. This is why dogs are better companions than people.
Claus, sometimes you unexpected run into an old acquaintance. She may have been in a hurry, on a schedule and needed to get somewhere. She was cordial it sounds like and maybe said one of those phrases she didn't really mean like, "stay in touch". I wouldn't take it personally. I also would not pursue a friendship with her. You gotta kind of read the room, so to speak.
There's also lots of people with horrible impulse control. Once she saw her machine was free, she may have had the compulsion to secure it immediately without the tact to wrap up the convo politely.
Claus I fuckin luv ya, You kill me. First of all my friend you are overthinking it lol. As we progress with the technology preferred medium of communication the social interactions become evermore difficult to interpret. What she is or isn’t is irrelevant. You were approached because Claus is different and interesting and approachable. You are unique and straight forward. How many people out of 100 would have picked up the phone to call her. My guess one. Keep fighting the good fight, cheers Michael
It sounds like she never actually wanted to talk to you in the first place but because she bumped into you she had to put on a false persona.. Some people are just fake and also terms such as, stay in touch or have a nice day are just a way to end a conversation. Many people these days are not honest and I think social media plays a big part in that, people trying to convey that they have a perfect life when in reality they are fucking miserable.
English is so strange when it comes to these social phrasings. "Keep in touch!" - "How are you doing?" Both of them usually said in meaningless matters. Ask a German "How are you doing?" and you will find out that most will give you an honest answer, and you won't be ready for it if you didn't mean it.
She was on autopilot, making water cooler talk, very shallow and not much happening in the top paddock, and probably does that to all her 'Facebook' friends not expecting anything in return......especially someone that is genuine or honest.
In social life people do every kind of weird things. When I meet a person I don't meet from a long time, and I have no interest in talking with that, I go on and pretend not to have seen, because I don't want to set up a fake discussion, this makes me probably Very unpopular, but it's like I am. Ps how bad was that picture you showed her? 😂
Marty!!!! Thanks for showing him Claus!! Good to know he is doing ok.😃👍👍 As for the Lady I think she had to rip really big fart and needed to get away in a hurry😂🤣😂. Maybe she was just putting out a feeler and decided she was not really interested. However some people are like that they act like friends but they never talk to ya unless they need something. I just really hope she does not come to workout and have an umbrella.🤣😂🤣😂 Also I don't think you have to change your number because I'm pretty sure after your call she changed hers.😂🤣😂 J/K Claus!!
It looks like she has social problems as you pointed out, battling with her inner self. Something's up with her, might be split personality or something. OR, might have some huge problem at home, with her family, and she's reaching out for help....that's your role now.
I remember you recounting your tale of being fired, and based upon that, I would say you were the subject of water cooler gossip for quite a while. Your "infamy" probably still lives on to this day... LOL! So, when she saw you at the gym, she may have remembered your face, and then when you started talking, she actually remembered who you were at work (THAT guy!!), and sought to escape the conversation as quickly as possible. No...I would not be sitting by the phone, waiting for her to call back. And for those of you who have not heard Claus tell the story of how he got fired, he did not do anything horrible or harm anyone. Maybe Claus will be kind enough to reply to this comment and leave a link to the video where he tells the story. It is hilarious!!
hahahah people are crazy they are living in fantasy world :D maybe you speaking so good and your few words made that talking good and it was enough for her :DDD
Without a doubt, she was stalking her ex, and when he noticed, she pretended to know you and tried to have a conversation. She wasn't ready for the conversation, so it got awkward.
Hey Claus, what happened was, she recognised you but could not place where, how or why. So, she started to make small talk. Then upon remembering that you were a colleague previously working together, and a nobody, she didn't want to talk to you anymore. Saying good bye with pleasantries. Little did she know you were this big shot on youtube, Claus says "wait till they get a loada me".
Wasn't is just an over-polite small talk? Reminds me when I started working with english and american people. It took me a while to relaize when they ask me how am I doing they actually don't expect an answer because they don't care. Even if I know it's just a form of social interaction still feels fake to me. Yep, cultural differences.
Men make the instant mistake that woman walk across the room to say hello that she must be “into him”. Nope. Women walk across the room so others can see them walking across the room because they love the stares. If she was attractive, this is exactly what happened. Women have great peripheral vision. The moment she realized it was you that was going to misinterpret the brief contact, she backed out of it and stumbled all over herself. It wasn’t nervous energy attraction that you were hoping for. You began talking way way too much too soon. She was in the middle of a workout and didn’t walk by to invest in a conversation. However, she did want the gossip of what u have been up to. If she was attractive and u wanted to spend more time with her, always respond as a friend. Look at her like a sister, not someone who makes u nervous. With a sister, you’re more likely to say something funny. This would be a signal to her your not going to give her creepy vibes because your not going to misinterpret her intentions. She would have asked you, what really happened when u were fired. She would have loved to take this juicy gossip back to work. And you could have said, I’m going to finish my workout in half an hour, how bout we meet for a smoothie and I’ll tell u all about it. Let it go now. She wasn’t into you (yet). She is shallow, wait until you get more muscular and good looking, by then you will want someone else who deserves you.
@@jollybee5220 Really, as in, part of reality. You suggesting 'fake' benefits anyone? That genuine affection has no value? Or that it's too much to comprehend?
Social competence is something strange... I hate people saying HI and smile and talk BS just because they think they have to say something. Don't give a shit on her Claus, if she calls you again it is fine, if not forget it asap.
Claus don't forget the whole Swedish women's volleyball team just like WOT, we have to learn from past experiences. In this case you prolly came across a cordial disingenuous barbie type, that used her entire encounter with you as a conversation starter at the office. LOL
She was just trying to play the social game in which one acknowledges anyone recognized. The problem is she is not good enough at it to pull it off seamlessly.
Some people just talk for the sake of talking. Hmmm. I noticed there is a picture of Uluru (Ayres Rock) on the wall. I assume there is a story behind that. The picture - not the rock - or the wall.
I think we often have an inflated notion how interesting we are to others. When Claus talked about his working out the shutters came down and the women looked for the exit. Now, had he said he's been having a sexual relationship with her best friend, that would have her attention! You have to ask yourself, is the time we spend with others always worth the effort? As the old saying goes "a friend in need is a friend to be avoided."
Yeah,.the others comments hit it on the head in someway or another. You just can't tell without asking but, then She would be offended if you did ask. I wouldn't worry about it. Just write people like that off as empty and insencere, perticularly when they break the "conversation" off like she wanted to.If you see her again. Smile and say to yourself yeah,. well, screw you too and keep going your way. When I walk around. If eyes connect with someone I'll either smile or say Morning, (time of day thing)or just Hello. A simple friendly greeting. Some look back as if I did something wrong. Some say nothing or turn thier head away. That's when I might blurt,. out well f-u too and keep on walking. Don't waste any of your time on those people they aren't worth it.
That was a typical woman greeting. They lay it on even thicker among themselves. I see women who I know hate each other act like best friends when they meet in the hall. My workplace is 95% women and it's a shit show.

She was absolutely a fake person... at the same time you know what you were doing... and i agree with you. Brilliant.
I watched this and just kept saying "Jesus Christmas, Claus." LOL. Pretty darn funny. Nice to see Marty.
Well, I'd be expecting a restraining order. Maybe in both directions. 😂

I think the "Keep in touch" is more of a polite thing to say like "Bless you" or "gesundheit" without really thinking about the words she just said meant.

Love it. She is obviously socially awkward and vacuous but you played it beautifully. Call people out on their meaningless platitudes and comments. 😂
My advice is run!!! Dont stop to look back! Just run!!
Claus u are a kind of genuine guy for me. Not only kind of, u are the kind of human which makes life beautifull.

😂 ya kill me Claus, I could just imagine the story behind getting fired😅
A) she's a NPC person who just faked interest and was friendly just in case she meets you again, or she felt she had to do the "office routine chat" and hopes to never see you again.
B) Other option is that she thinks your crazy and stalking her, because most people just can't handle genuine and direct talk and especially not humor.
C) she's insecure and afraid and doesn't really know how to have a genuine conversation with a guy she doesn't know well.
D) she thinks you're desperate to get a girlfriend, but she either has a hubby/bf or is so stuck in her habits that she thinks having a bf would somehow handicap her.

Hello Claus, great and interesting video. Is that a picture of Ayres Rock on the wall behind you?
Uluru, mate. Uluru! 😃
Yes sir right you are, but when I was a kid... old habits
yes!
Good lesson how to deal with a sociopath. Hahaha.

off she goes sounds like a kind of love song too.

Marty!!!! Thanks for showing him Claus!! Good to know he is doing ok.😃👍👍 As for the Lady I think she had to rip really big fart and needed to get away in a hurry😂🤣😂. Maybe she was just putting out a feeler and decided she was not really interested. However some people are like that they act like friends but they never talk to ya unless they need something. I just really hope she does not come to workout and have an umbrella.🤣😂🤣😂 Also I don't think you have to change your number because I'm pretty sure after your call she changed hers.😂🤣😂 J/K Claus!!
its those americanised service phrases that you wont find in germany.
It looks like she has social problems as you pointed out, battling with her inner self. Something's up with her, might be split personality or something. OR, might have some huge problem at home, with her family, and she's reaching out for help....that's your role now.
You got fired, what you doing, trying to work out, ok bye 😂
I remember you recounting your tale of being fired, and based upon that, I would say you were the subject of water cooler gossip for quite a while. Your "infamy" probably still lives on to this day... LOL! So, when she saw you at the gym, she may have remembered your face, and then when you started talking, she actually remembered who you were at work (THAT guy!!), and sought to escape the conversation as quickly as possible. No...I would not be sitting by the phone, waiting for her to call back.
And for those of you who have not heard Claus tell the story of how he got fired, he did not do anything horrible or harm anyone. Maybe Claus will be kind enough to reply to this comment and leave a link to the video where he tells the story. It is hilarious!!
hahahah people are crazy they are living in fantasy world :D maybe you speaking so good and your few words made that talking good and it was enough for her :DDD
Claus : women, stay away from them , they are crazy...........
The way society is now you should be expecting a restraining order. No I wouldn't expect any further interaction.
I think you should call her up again and ask her to marry you.
Keep clear Claus, she is thinking ''A stalker''
Without a doubt, she was stalking her ex, and when he noticed, she pretended to know you and tried to have a conversation. She wasn't ready for the conversation, so it got awkward.
Hey Claus, what happened was, she recognised you but could not place where, how or why. So, she started to make small talk. Then upon remembering that you were a colleague previously working together, and a nobody, she didn't want to talk to you anymore. Saying good bye with pleasantries. Little did she know you were this big shot on youtube, Claus says "wait till they get a loada me".
SHE'S A NARCISSIST SHE DOESN'T WANT TO KNOW ABOUT ANYONE OTHER THAN HERSELF
Wasn't is just an over-polite small talk?
Reminds me when I started working with english and american people. It took me a while to relaize when they ask me how am I doing they actually don't expect an answer because they don't care. Even if I know it's just a form of social interaction still feels fake to me.
Yep, cultural differences.
A smart guy like you. I am surprised that they fired you. Was it age discrimination related?
She was rude. Dont let it get to you, Claus. Orherwise they live upstairs rent-free, and it ain't worth the anguish.
Sounds like she was trying to be pleasant but didn't think you would stay in touch.
I bet you were a blast to work with
Men make the instant mistake that woman walk across the room to say hello that she must be “into him”. Nope. Women walk across the room so others can see them walking across the room because they love the stares. If she was attractive, this is exactly what happened. Women have great peripheral vision. The moment she realized it was you that was going to misinterpret the brief contact, she backed out of it and stumbled all over herself. It wasn’t nervous energy attraction that you were hoping for. You began talking way way too much too soon. She was in the middle of a workout and didn’t walk by to invest in a conversation. However, she did want the gossip of what u have been up to. If she was attractive and u wanted to spend more time with her, always respond as a friend. Look at her like a sister, not someone who makes u nervous. With a sister, you’re more likely to say something funny. This would be a signal to her your not going to give her creepy vibes because your not going to misinterpret her intentions. She would have asked you, what really happened when u were fired. She would have loved to take this juicy gossip back to work. And you could have said, I’m going to finish my workout in half an hour, how bout we meet for a smoothie and I’ll tell u all about it. Let it go now. She wasn’t into you (yet). She is shallow, wait until you get more muscular and good looking, by then you will want someone else who deserves you.
i guess the NPC you meet was nop programed to interact on that lvl with a real player 😂
You do have that Jack Nicholson look, your not just the president of Hair for Men's club, you are a member.
people say all kinds of things when they unexpectedly encounter a high functioning weirdo. ask me how I know. 😉
Shes married.
Civility it's a rare quality in Alberta, just threw you off a little.
That person was sounding you out as a patties. Trying to work out your wealth - and a 'partner' going forward and you failed L0L 😄
I want the getting fired story please, esp. if it as funny as this.
Spend a couple of hours browsing through his channel archives 🤓 The story is in one or two of the old videos, I promise you! 👍
She was being civil, you are over thinking it!
Civility is supposed to be sincere, otherwise it's something else.
@@paulfountain1364 nope, not really
@@jollybee5220 Really, as in, part of reality. You suggesting 'fake' benefits anyone? That genuine affection has no value? Or that it's too much to comprehend?
Social competence is something strange... I hate people saying HI and smile and talk BS just because they think they have to say something. Don't give a shit on her Claus, if she calls you again it is fine, if not forget it asap.
She was very true... Very Trudeau, I mean.
sorry to hear dude. I think she is being fake and too nice for whatever reason.
nice beautiful cute australian shepherd btw
Claus don't forget the whole Swedish women's volleyball team just like WOT, we have to learn from past experiences. In this case you prolly came across a cordial disingenuous barbie type, that used her entire encounter with you as a conversation starter at the office. LOL
She was just trying to play the social game in which one acknowledges anyone recognized. The problem is she is not good enough at it to pull it off seamlessly.
Haha so funny you called her up😅 but I think she just wanted to be polite in the gym when she saw you. I think you looking at this way to deep😂
Some people just talk for the sake of talking.
Hmmm.
I noticed there is a picture of Uluru (Ayres Rock) on the wall.
I assume there is a story behind that.
The picture - not the rock - or the wall.
I think we often have an inflated notion how interesting we are to others. When Claus talked about his working out the shutters came down and the women looked for the exit. Now, had he said he's been having a sexual relationship with her best friend, that would have her attention! You have to ask yourself, is the time we spend with others always worth the effort? As the old saying goes "a friend in need is a friend to be avoided."
Sounds like Love to me, you guys will be dating before you know it! lol
Yeah,.the others comments hit it on the head in someway or another. You just can't tell without asking but, then She would be offended if you did ask. I wouldn't worry about it. Just write people like that off as empty and insencere, perticularly when they break the "conversation" off like she wanted to.If you see her again. Smile and say to yourself yeah,. well, screw you too and keep going your way. When I walk around. If eyes connect with someone I'll either smile or say Morning, (time of day thing)or just Hello. A simple friendly greeting. Some look back as if I did something wrong. Some say nothing or turn thier head away. That's when I might blurt,. out well f-u too and keep on walking. Don't waste any of your time on those people they aren't worth it.
That was a typical woman greeting. They lay it on even thicker among themselves. I see women who I know hate each other act like best friends when they meet in the hall. My workplace is 95% women and it's a shit show.
