UK Gym Buddy??

I really need someone to give me a proper shove at the gym but I tend to give up too easily on my own.
Only problem is my gym is in Wednesbury, West Midlands [Pulse Fitness] and I swear I'm like the only person who goes there that isn't some *kitten* who stares at themselves in the mirror for like 2 hours then leaves.
I think I'd feel less self-concious if I had a gym buddy too.... I have social anxiety so as soon as I spot someone looking at me it makes me nervous and I want to go home...
Anyone use this gym? Or one in West Bromwich?

I've practically given up going to the gym for the same reason. The only person I went with was my fiancee, but now she has stopped going, so I have no one else to go with. I don't really have the gym 'look' or body shape, and so I feel uncomfortable around these alpha male guys who are always posing, flexing their pecs.0
