oberkeat Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 Every day I go to work out at the gym across the street from my office. There's this girl who works part time at the check-in counter there who swipes my membership card each time. She's cute, so today, after months of seeing her, I decide: why not start a conversation with her, try to get to know her? I'm asking her questions about where she's from, what her major is, what team she likes, blah blah blah. Just then, a customer comes up behind me to check in. So, I just cut the conversation short, thanked her, and moved on into the gym. I guess with someone watching, I got self-conscious, probably coming off as timid and abrupt. Should I try to chat her up again next time I see her, or is there no way to salvage the situation?
Chasin Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 I wouldn't be self-conscious. She's cute, works at a gym... Chances are she gets hit on a lot. I say chat up with her over and over again. Just make small talk. Get to know her little by little throughout a week or 2. See if she may be flirty back? If all goes well, one day strike up a convo with her again, ask her out on a date. If she says yes, well I'm sure that'll be a damn good confidence booster and you'll have an awesome workout. If she says no, screw it. That's okay. Don't let it ruin your heart or workout and I'd say continue to be friendly and make small talk here and there!
Assasda Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 Sounds cool. Talk to her again, if you get interupted, ask for her number so you can finish the convo later
preraph Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 I agree she probably gets hit on a lot. At some point you could just ask her if she has a boyfriend already. She very well may have since she works in a place full of sweaty men! Don't feel bad about it if she does, though. Just keep being nice to her because boyfriends don't always last forever.
Author oberkeat Posted October 27, 2014 Author Posted October 27, 2014 Alright, thanks all for the input.
Dallers Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 Tricky one. As above the other posters are right. She is cute and hot and works in a gym. Alpha's will be hitting on her all the time and she most likely likes one or two them and they do not give her the light of day. You really have to up your value and this is no time for being self conscious. I don't care for small talk it is such a waste of time and energy and the more you delay and think about it the worse it looks. More than one chit chat and you are friend zoning yourself. On the way out flirt and get her number. No if's or but's just go in with the mentality to win and you win. If not then brush it off and make sure it does not show that is affected you carry on treating her the same.
