Guys, how can a girl at the gym get your attention in a good way?

[curiouschica]

Not slutty and not talking about guys who are players...just the friendly athletic ones...Thanks! =)

I don't know about other guys, but for me you have to be as obvious as you can think of being. I'm not one that thinks the gym is an appropriate place to meet girls even though we're both there for the same reason. I just don't like bothering people in the gym, I hardly look at people, and the only time I really talk to people in the gym is to tell them I'm done with the equipment. Otherwise, I leave everyone alone in the gym.

So if you glance at me- smile. If you walk by me- smile and say hi. If you see me leaving the gym, like out in the parking lot- say hi. Otherwise I prefer to leave people alone while they work in the gym. I don't know why I feel like this, but I think people (especially women) would like to focus on their workout rather than be bothered, let alone hit on.

lol sometimes I wish people had labels on their forehead with their intentions...might simplify everything! Yeah I know what you mean...I always do my own thing but in the back of my mind I wouldn't mind if a good guy approached...u know? Thanks for the tip!

[Brando]

Ha yes people do need labels or signs above their heads, that would be awesome! But yeah, I guess that's the tough part is wondering how you'll be received if you take the risk of talking to someone in that situation. I can't tell the difference between a casual glance/looking around, or when they're looking at ME. And even then, I don't think to myself "Oh, they were looking. I better go talk to them". I don't know lol

Do the "round of two".

First round: walk by him with a extra long gaze,...smile and say hi.

Second round: Do an exercise next to him and glance or smile at him. Your choice.

If he's interested, that will land you fish no problem. good luck on your catch!

[curiouschica]

lol extra long gaze...I'd say that's more like the movies! Appreciate the advice tho! =)

[Triathlete]

Really? Funny that's how my last girlfriend got me. I can still remember her eyes that first time. Good luck! :-)

[curiouschica]

Very sweet...thanks again!

haha my friends always tell me to go to the gym and do pullups since I can actually do them. they say it will get me attention, but I'm usually too shy to actually do it lol

[curiouschica]

lol Go for it! Stun them with your "guns!" lol

[huntusa]

I can talk to any girl as long as girl doesn't blank out on me and doesn't know what to say when I talk to her.If you can hold on to a conversation then simple Hi/Hello is good enough to get my attention.But I don't like getting distracted while I work out so you have to be watchful of that fact that you don't get all chatty with the guy if he is a serious gym rat.

[curiouschica]

Good point! Thanks!

[Carson1023]

Act like you need help with a lift or that you need some ideas of what to do. I would gladly help.

[curiouschica]

lol I'll consider that! Thanks! =)

[Carson1023]

No problem

[stevo]

Just smile. Talk a little-that would be enough to get my interest-

[curiouschica]

Seems like smiling is a common theme for guys! Thanks!

[stevo]

Sure

[actricalian]

Ask for help with some exercise. That will get his attention and stroke his ego at the same time.

[curiouschica]

lol like the ego thing! =p

[moviedude714]

Say Hi or Hello to us, smile at us from a distance

[curiouschica]

[curiouschica]
