"Hey, I just met you and this is crazy, but here's my number, so call me maybe."
If you do this you have to sing it, and film it, and post it!
I want to know what happens next!!!!!!!
Chances are you are infatuated becuase you don't know him, I was the same with a mutual frienmd of a friend, started seeing him and he was boring as a paving slab! Or he could be really nice who knows0 -
You like this guy? You don't even know him. You like how he looks, lets be real here.This is for you, OP - gymdates.com
hahaha!! I was curious so I checked out the site but noooo not for me....I really like this guy0 -
Aha i know what u meanGod!
It's so awful how all you WOMEN are always hitting on us guys at the gym!
I'm just trying to go there and become fit and healthy and I can't get through one workout without you ladies perving on me.
God I hope these are jokes :-)0 -
Dear women everywhere. Take note:
For the most part, nice men are completely thick when it comes to knowing they are being hit on. Only players recognise signals and know how to act on them. Spell it out: I recommend something on the lines of:
"I think you look cute and I want to know if you're nice too. Will you go to a cafe for a drink with me so I can find out?"
^^Good advice. The night I met my husband, we hung out for a few hours. At the end of the night I had to tell him "Make sure we exchange phone numbers because I like you and think you are cute so I want to make sure see each other again...." You have to be crystal clear with your intentions.
With that being said most the guys at my gyms don't have a problem with talking to women. In fact it's kind of annoying to see all the flirting going on!0 -
Men are not "shy." They know who and what they want. He's just not that into you, for whatever reason. Sorry!0
-
He's doesn't feel awkward about approaching you, and you've given him an open. I've found that *most* guys will go for it if they're actually interested. For whatever reason, and maybe it's just timing - he's not going for it with you. I'd just continue to be friendly but keep it movin'.0

bump for later

Repeat after me - "I see you here all the time. My name is Esmeralda. We should workout together sometime and then maybe catch a smoothie after."
or try:
"Hey, I just met you and this is crazy, but here's my number, so call me maybe."
I definitely want you to use the second line!!!0 -
God, what a stick in the mud. I've had marriages that didn't go past what they look like...
You like this guy? You don't even know him. You like how he looks, lets be real here.

i'm kind of in the same boat. i saw a guy i think is very attractive, i've never seen him before, just started coming to this gym a week ago, i've been doing the same gym routine for the past 9 months so its easy to tell when someones new cuz i go from 3am - 6am when theres only 8 others there.
we are both focused and use headphones meaning zero chance of interaction, not even a sneak peek (atleast on his part). i recently made a pact with myself that i would no longer go up to guys, it's unladylike and sends the wrong message (in my opinion), besides why would i wanna go out with a guy who isn't confident enough to come up to me first? or doesn't find me attractive enough to take a chance? it's a great way to weed out the weenies. it just so happens that in my history of relationships, the ones that started with me going up to them set the tone of me being the dominant figure in the relationship which is not what i want. the ones that had the balls to come up to me first made a much more a significant mark in my relationships and seemed to value me more. but this is all personal preference and experience.
like my friend said to me after i told him about my situation, "let it go, no matter what, a guy is gonna check out a girl doing squats right in front of him, so you're probably not his type" i agree with my friends advice, i'm not one to chase guys, i'm over that stage in life. i agree with that theory of "he's just not that into you". i'd rather spend time w. someone who is so attracted to me that he can't help but introduce himself rather then try n get someone to notice how amazing i truly am. their loss.
with that said, here is a cute way to give this guy your number, i stole the idea from UFC's Forrest Griffin. Write your name and number & maybe something small to give him an idea of who you are, something that has to do with your past interaction on a piece of paper and give it to the front desk clerk to give it to him. Make sure the clerk knows who you're talking about, for example if he's wearing a black puma shirt with grey shorts, tall black guy wearing a beanie make sure to let the clerk know. you can even give the clerk a wink to let them know *thats the guy* when he's in eyesight. otherwise, you can do what i do and use this lil infatuation to motivate you to get in the gym
goodluck!

^^ this is so well said! I agree - hard to believe or follow through with when you are crushing on someone but shy guys get married too so they must figure it out when it is important! Take it easy - do what you love and don't over think it - easier said than done I know.0 -

Obviously you work out pretty much at the same time. If he gets there after you normally then go in that little bit later. Things happen, he doesn't need to know you ran late on purpose. Or go in earlier if he is there normally before you. And/or make sure you leave the same time he does even if that means extending your own work out, or shortening it one time. That way it puts you outside at the same time and may give you a chance to talk while neither of you are working out.0

Got to update the thread on this one! Too sweet!0

Just wait till he gets on the bench press and then straddle him... Problem solved

Yeah! Bump so I can keep up with the gym romance.0 -
if he is interested in you, he will approach you. it's that simple.0

Here is a cartoon reinactment.
Lol0 -
He probably assumed you were just being friendly. Approach him, introduce yourself and give him your number. It is not often guys have women initiate, I think its cool when they do and most guys would probably feel the same way. If he says he's invovled with someone or turns out hes not interested..oh well at least you tried..0

Tomorrow is Thursday! Hopefully my crush would make an appearance.0
