I commented a while back on a post about a girl I have gathered much rapport with over the past few months. She works at my gym and we have a lot of friendly and somewhat flirty conversations... recently I made a comment about when are we going to start texting (during a flirty conversation)... she said we can just chat at the gym. It seems she likes talking to me and she's stated that I make her day better whenever I come into the gym.

Given the recent rejection to the idea of us starting to text, is there a way for me to convert this to a win or am I just out of luck? And either way, how do I proceed?

Any questions, suggestions, ideas, are welcomed!
