If youre not compfortable with a direct approach, thats fine - you'll have great luck because most guys would rather talk about weather and other yawn inducing stuff, to perhaps eventualy let you know they are actualy attracted to you.
I can respect your view. If someone approached me as you describe I wouldn't completely count him out; it would just take me longer to size him up and let my defenses down. Never know.

I agree, she gave you some signals, so you should at least try. And you've already done the ring check, ha, good for you! You can say anything just to get a conversation started and signal interest. "Hi (smile), how have you been? I haven't seen you around for a while." Gauge her response. "I'm Steve, nice to meet you." Simple, basic stuff works. If she responds well, and lingers a little over the conversation, ask her if she'd like to go for coffee/tea sometime, after workout.

I was at this crazy beach party this weekend, and as i was sitting aside with a friend, this georgous brunette walks by me, with a friend and a large candle in her hand. she was substantialy younger than me, but a true rare beauty. this was my approach =

me- are you an elvish princess?
her (smiling) - yes, I am
Me- are you travelling to western lands?
her (still smiling) - no, eastern lands
Me - I find you incredibly attractive, my name is .....

got her name , lotsa smiles , her phone number and talked for awhile, while shamelessly flirting the whole time. Even though she was quickly surrounded by bunch of guys, she kept her attention with me mostly, by addressing me by my first name and continuing eye contact, which tells me she enjoyed the interraction. Turns out shes moving to china in 10 days(thus the comment about moving to eastern lands), but she made it very clear that i need to call her soon, so she can clear up her schedule one evening to see me. The point im making, is.....there is really no reason to get hung up on what to say, but rather in a way that you say it. as long as there is mutual attraction, you'll find success. If i can turn LOTR geek concept into a date with an incredibly beautiful girl, than so can any guy.

Lol, you see this is why I don't get women. How did this work on her?

If I tried the "elvish princess" line, I'm pretty sure I'd get the wtf? face

Anyway, 10 for making it work

The reason i called her an elvish princess, is because she looked alot like Liv Tyler in the movie, but actualy quite a bit more attractive, was wearing a long dress and was carrying a large candle, and completely reminded me of the scene from the movie. THats why prescripting lines is a waste of time IMO, becasue you never know when an elvish princess passes by. I also addressed her with a smile, in a confident, relaxed, sexual and friendly manner. Try it.

Also make no mistake, Ascension is a good looking guy with a nice body. You can't deny that plays a part in it.

Put a real hobbit in your place and it wouldn't work.

I saw her tonight at the gym. She was doing Smith Machine squats and I took the machine next to her to do decline bench press. When she finished her set I asked her name with a smile, told her I see her around alot, told her my name and then we talked about her routine. She smiled and was open. So I went to a different area of the gym to do abs and when she was finished for the night she saw me, smiled and said see you later and have a good night. Since I see her at least twice a week I just wanted to establish contact and go from there. I knew I needed to do this tonight bc her body is sick and I'm so attracted to her. But I didn't ask her to coffee.

Bravo! A connection has been officially made! You can build up to coffee gradually.
