It's already too late. She's done everything short of outright throwing herself at him.

No, it wasn't at the gym. People at my gym keep to themselves and ignore everyone else, unless it's their personal trainer or workout buddy. Even then, the spotter will be looking at their phone half the time instead of paying attention to their friend.

Back in December, my friend and I tried a new (to us) style of dancing, which I really enjoy. It's held the first Wednesday, second Friday and every Saturday. We went again a couple of times in January; I met Guy at the end of January on a Saturday and had a lot of fun dancing with him. Saw him again a couple of days later at the first Wednesday dance of February. Again, had fun dancing with him. We chit-chatted both times but nothing earth-shattering. Saw him again at the end of Feb, figured since he was so fun to dance with, he may be fun to get to know better in general. Since I only go dancing sporadically and didn't know when I'd be going again, I asked if he was interested in getting together. He gave me his number, we texted a bit and it quickly became evident he wasn't really interested so nothing came of it. But at least now I know.

I don't see how you think she has thrown herself at me, unless the small sublties are bigger to her and I'm Not reacting enough. Interesting story by the way. I just feel awkward still about this. Yes she is less around than before but I can't pinpoint why. Also says hi less but still looks at me . I need ramp this up and soon.

What on earth do you talk about? It seems like your hesitancy and overthinking would make a conversation with you painfully awkward.

I honestly don't see whats wrong what I am doing here. I dont see it

The only think I can think of is getting number stating I want to continue the conversation later on. It bothers me trying to like get a date on the spot.
So on previous dates, how have you worked things?

How have you got together with previous girlfriends?

Usually through people or ways in which we had regular contact. It made things allot easier.

Perhaps I'm acting too aloof. Seems that way

There could be a number of reasons why her gym schedule has changed. Maybe her work schedule changed. Maybe she's really busy right now and the gym has had to take a back seat. Maybe there's a cute guy she's interested in who goes at another time. Maybe you just think she's looking at you - I thought I was making eye contact from across the gym with my BFF the other day and while he appeared to be looking straight at me, he wasn't. I'm sure people think I'm looking at them all the time when I'm really watching the clock so I know when to start my next set.

You can speculate until the cows come home but it's fruitless as only she can tell you why.

Why do you think she had thrown herself at me was it the talking bit? I'm dead positive about the looking thing it happens all the time. I pretend to not notice but when I look back it's still there. Been watching it for too long.

Again, what is the conversation about and how long does it last? How does it start? How does it end? Who ends it?
