I'm just not going to rush it. We don't know each other they well.

Okay. How well do you feel you need to know someone before you ask them out, just out of curiosity?

We all have our own pace. Just keep in mind that while yours is snail's pace, hers may not be and after three weeks of mooning at each other, she's likely thinking "guess he isn't interested" and is now changing her gym times to avoid "that guy who I thought might be interested but I guess is actually just a creeper who keeps staring at me."

She looks at me more I see her doing this at a distance and between the machines. I may talk to her a couple more times then do it.

"Mooning" don't know that term. Nothing had been done that's too evident either way she wants me to talk to her and I'm doing that. I don't know if I ask for her number is too soon and awkward.

Well, do what feels right for you. That's really the only thing you can do.

Supposedly she makes repeated eye contact with you and holds that contact.

Supposedly, she talks about you on Twitter.

Supposedly, she invites you over to talk to you by smiling at you and you have talked after that.

Supposedly, she has told you she wanted to talk to you more.


If all this stuff is true (which I doubt), then she couldn't be giving you any more signals that she wants you to step up to the plate now.

It's all true.its just that there hasn't been much face to face talking yet. If I keep talking to her it should be fine. It's better than disappearing and not talking.

So if you keep running into her on your way out or her way out, why don't you attempt to talk for a few minutes then? Instead of, you know, disappearing and not talking.

It's not that simple one she was with like five people . It was like the hadn't seen each other for awhile and being introduced to others. I don't know her that well let alone interject.

Here's betting she said "Let's talk later" in an effort to get you to leave her alone when you were bugging her when she was with other people.


If that's not the case, a simple "Can I talk to you over here for a minute?" followed by a quick walk to the side away from others and asking for her number would be simple, fast, and what any reasonably confident guy would do.

Simple being the operative word...

I did it recently. It really was that easy. Guy was leaving. I didn't know when I would see Guy again. I wanted to get to know Guy better. So I went and asked Guy for his number. It ultimately turned out he wasn't interested but I survived to tell about it. As have countless other men and women before me.
