Sounds like she was giving you clear signals to approach. "How" to approach without making it awkward isn't the right question to ask. Just introduce yourself, it doesn't matter if it's awkward. If you follow a script where you're saying XYZ then it's not genuine, which is even worse.

Would you say i missed my chance or i can still go for it next time i see her? Also i heard its good to start the convo with gym related stuff or like share a machine with her and stuff like that

You definitely missed your "best" chance since she was ready for you to talk to her. Now she might be thinking you're not interested or something so she might not be as emotionally invested in an approach. You still have nothing to lose tho, so might as well talk to her at a different opportunity. As far as "what" to talk about I'm not sure I can be much help. I usually try to learn about the girl and I'm less interested in micro elements like her workout routine and stuff.
The share a machine idea is great and I've never considered it. Like a mini-date so you can keep the conversation going and build rapport. Definitely go for that

You should definetly approach her, don't think about the fact that you aren't "buff" like some guys in the gym, because most girls prefer normal muscles over buff ones. She was looking at you, try talking to her, it can never be a waste of time.

Hmmm I’m trying to think what I would like if I was her. Honestly, I would just strike up a conversation when she finishes a set or goes to get water. A passing joke or friendly non flirty compliment maybe. Pray that she has a tshirt with something interesting written on it that you can comment on LOL. Then always say hello when you see her. If she starts approaching you when she sees you then it can lead to longer conversations and such and is a good sign she’s at least curious to know you. But if she does that polite acknowledgment then keeps moving I would read that as she’s not interested. I wouldn’t be too forward because some women really hate being hit on at the gym.

Ye i guess i could do something like that. Thanks for the advice!
[–]jmbear7 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
definitely say hello or smile when you see her, but not in a deliberate way. just be friendly and true to yourself. then when you see the opportunity to talk to her (i highly suggest it being non flirty) she will be comfortable with speaking to you. a lot of women are cautious at the gym because of creeps so being friends with her first will go a long way.
Thanks for the advice, for sure ill try to spark a conversation when i get the chance

Maybe just mine opinion but I really do not care about anything else than gym when I am at the gym. Tunnel vision. You can roll in front of me, dance, jerk off.. I will still prepare for my incline bench. I approach woman on daily basis but I respect gym far too much to approach there. I appreciate my time and I respect their time there. Outside the gym? Sure. Inside the gym? If she has ear phones? GTFO bud. If she calls for a spot. You spot her. You don't hit on her on her PR.. Considering your case, could be IOI but you should take that outside the gym. She could be shit testing will you just hump to her as a dog on a whistle.
Ye i know what you mean, but like i said she didnt look like she was really into it hahahha. Ill have that in mind tho.

Oh how many times have I experienced this situation myself...only to find out at the end of the workout that she walked away from the gym with her boyfriend who was there with her, just training on other stations... If you want to make the move, make sure it's really worth it.
Good point, ill make sure she doesnt have a boyfriend hahahah
