tlind Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 Ok, first off I'm probably reading way to much into this, but as I'm starting to get into the dating scene, I can't help but try and pick up on all the clues of "if she likes you". Anyways, I joined a gym today, and I had a consult first to take a tour of the place. The person I was meeting for a consult was a woman, and when I saw her, I'm pretty sure I had the "holy crap, she's gorgeous" look plastered on my face (not sure if you women can read that or not). While we'd talk about the gym and all the options for the place, we'd hold each others gaze, until she would quickly look away and then back again, or blink, and this happened quite a bit. (I didn't flat out stare at her, we'd hold eye contact for a bit, but she'd be the one to always glance away quickly). Also when taking a tour of the place, she'd ask me random non gym related questions (something I'm not used to from women). While taking the tour, she mentioned group workouts they do there, and if I wanted to, she'd join me for the first one, if I was ever interested in doing that (is this something offered to all new members?) Also, there was a personal trainer sitting down with us at one point and I was talking to him, and happened to glance up, saw that she was looking at me, and kinda rubbing her neck. One final thing I noticed was that after I signed some paper work, she didn't wait for me to hand her the pen, but grabbed it right out of my hand, by placing her fingers right on my hand to take the pen, twice. Basically I went to the gym to try and better my life, met this beautiful woman, and my thinking is (she's gotta have a b/f, if she doesn't she wouldn't be interested in me, which I quickly dispel and think, WHY wouldn't she be interested, I've got lots to offer. But I'm also thinking, maybe she's just being "friendly" to try and get you to sign up - something I was planning on doing anyways. Do these sound like promising signs that she could be interested? I go back on Monday, and she will be there to, so maybe if she's still friendly, I'll ask to take her up on that group workout. Just wondering what you guys and girls thoughts are on this, do the signs point to something one should feel good about in asking her out potentially.
torranceshipman Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 Tbh, sounds to me like standard sales stuff. I bet she gets new guys hitting on her all the time and I bet there's a reason that gym hires such a cute sales girl! The group workout thing is standard, as is the making conversation about non gym-related things. Good sales....and if she was looking at you and rubbing her neck, she might have been tired - anything. And the grabbing the pen - also classic sales behaviour. Not to rain on your parade though as I am sure you are a lovely guy, and I wasn't there so what the heck so I know, perhaps she fancied the pants off of you! But from what you've described so far it sounds to me like a normal gym/sales interaction. Hope that helps!
Author tlind Posted June 26, 2009 Author Posted June 26, 2009 there's no parade to rain on, I was just curious, and basically thought as much, but wanted some outside opinion, as those on the outside are the best observers of situations.
Maxis Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 there's no parade to rain on, I was just curious, and basically thought as much, but wanted some outside opinion, as those on the outside are the best observers of situations. I still wouldn't rule it out completely if you ask me. I advise you not to get your hopes up too much, but weirder things have happened in this world. Unfortunately, it's a bit hard to tell since...even though we're outside observers, we didn't ACTUALLY see any of this happening.
Author tlind Posted June 26, 2009 Author Posted June 26, 2009 I suppose the reality is, see how she responds to me on Monday (now that I've signed), and take it from there. There is no point in analyzing the situation, as that's how paranoia begins, and just take it as it comes.

A question: if she is into you, does it matter? Would it change anything about the gym? Your interest in her is skyrocketing because she gave you a few signs. Come back to Earth, it is what it is :-P

Come back to Earth, it is what it is :-P Actually, one of the reasons I joined a gym was to get my mind to stop analyzing everything, not just women, everything. To try and get myself in shape: both physically, and mentally, and try and get some sort of balance in my life. And as a side note, I think that gravity just brought me back, jk. No seriously, I joined a gym for myself and no other reason, if something happens, it happens, if not, that's not why I joined.
Sevenscars Posted June 27, 2009 Posted June 27, 2009 You are doing it for yourself, truly the best reason to do such a thing. I hope you find peace, balance, and a great figure as well.
