jennifer02 Posted July 3, 2004 Posted July 3, 2004 Hi, I have a situation, and I need some advice. I joined a gym a few months ago, and I first noticed this doctor working there a few days a week. He does some sort of program with patients of his in the mornings. Well, at first when I noticed him, he really didn't look at me at all. He would leave early, and I at first just thought he was cute. Then, as the days went by when I would see him, I'd look at him, and I would notice him staring at me. I would see him staring at me, and I would look away, look back and he'd still be looking at me! He would stay in there much longer than his usual time, just talking to people about anything, but he wouldn't talk to me. He'd walk right around me, or he'd talk to someone right in front of me, but never to me. I want to say something to him, partly just to introduce myself, but he's either talking to patients or to other doctors. I noticed he doesn't have a wedding band on his finger, and plus he looks young (maybe a few years older than me at age 20.) I just don't know what to do. Every time I want to talk to him, he's not free, and plus he's there working. I feel awkward, and I am so frustrated with this. Can anyone help me as to what I should do? I know the most obvious is to talk to him, but he's always around other people and sometimes I just get too nervous! lol. I can't really ask if it sounds like he likes me, based on this, but maybe it does. I'm so bad at this stuff. Thanks!!!
Mr Spock Posted July 3, 2004 Posted July 3, 2004 I would just smile at him. Let him come to you, that way you can feel confident that you're not interferring with his patients/work etc. Nod your head , smile , and say "hi" as you walk by. Pretty soon, you'll chat with each other.
Curt Posted July 3, 2004 Moderators Posted July 3, 2004 I agree that you need primarily, to appear friendly, easy-to-talk-to, and just plain "nice." Nonetheless, be wary that you may need to put your heart out there. Many times, men are as intimidated as are women...a lot of the truly good people are. Nonetheless...be willing to step it up a notch if he doesn't make any major strides (yet continues to give you attention). Curt
