Approach a cute guy at the gym?

[Anonymous]

Heya,

About three weeks ago I noticed this dude looking over at me multiple times. I didn't think much of it at first, besides that he wasn't unapealing to look at. I figured it was just coincedence and he even was looking all over the place. Two weeks later I saw him again, quite unexpected to be honest. To my, perhaps, surprise I noticed he looked my way during his set. I thought it'd be impolite to stare as he was busy and didn't want to disturb him. Later on when I went for a cooling down we locked eyes again, but he was busy with his reps so I quickly looked away.

I'm not sure how to go about approaching him, especially 'cause he seemed to be wearing earplugs. On top of that I'm not quite sure if it'd be okay to get in contact with a guy at a gym. I mean he's there to work-out not socialize, and it could be I'm just imagening things. But then again I'll never know when it's the last time our schedules meet up and I really want to push myself to try something.

How to go about this? Or would you prefer to be left alone?

Thanks~

i think at the gym, it is best that the girls do the approaching and talking because most of the straight guys will not talk to girls as they will usually assume they'll be labeled as a creep instantly, if they think you're hot they might think they're out of your league and it is very embarrassing to be rejected at a public place that he visits so frequently. so it is up to you to set up a good situation for him to feel comfortable and confident enough to court you. it's 2018, there are plenty of women that chase after men, too. it doesn't always have to be stuck in the past, and you know what they say "either you wait for nothing to happen or you go out there and make something happen".

since you've been watching him for a while, just go up to him and ask him to teach you something. like if he's really good at pull ups, or can do something that seems incredible, just compliment him and ask if he can teach you, or give you some tips, from there just introduce yourself and so on.

I have been going to gyms for over 25 years. 99% of guys are receptive to greetings from women. Sorry, no offense, but it is most of the women that don't like guys approaching them. So it's a double standard, girls can do it, guys cannot. So you certainly have the social green light. At the gym, there are times you never try this. Never try to talk to say hello while he is in the middle of a set. Always wait until he is taking a break. If he is wearing earbuds, that does make things a bit harder. You have to wait for the right time when he is resting or getting a drink. At this time you can try to make eye contact and a warm smile goes a long way. Once he acknowledges your smile with a smile back, then you can go further with small talk or whatever you are comfortable with. Good luck!

If a girl did that to me, I'd be pissed cos I'm only there for the gainz... but most guys aren't like me. Most guys want to be approached by women all day and will drop all gainz for a whiff of sweaty pink armpit.

I'll remind myself to whiff my sweaty pink armpit next time I'm there xD

Just go up and talk to him. I know if a girl did that to me I'd be super open to it

It's just that he wears earplugs all the time, and I'm afraid he wouldn't want to be disturbed.

I only ever wear earbuds to pump myself up. It doesn't mean I don't wanna talk, especially if it's a girl.

I mean yeah you're risking that possibility, but what's the alternative? Never saying anything and just letting the opportunity slip by you? That's silly

[snidespark88]

definitely go for it. I may be wrong but what do younhave to loose. Maybe just try and start a convo first and see what response you get.
Be brave and good luck. 😎🤘🏻
