Indon't know if it's been said already but that fidgeting and looking down means she's into you. Ask her out.

I'm going to wait one more day to talk to her, get to know her a bit more before asking her out. My sister and some of my female friends convinced me that its probably too soon and I should wait at least one more conversation. If shes there tomorrow ill talk to her and get her name, then ill ask her out on Wednesday.

He's back!

Great idea mate. If you don't feel comfortable then she won't. Besides if you know nothing about her, it is possible that when you find out more you realise that she isn't worth the effort. I hope for your sake this isn't true but it is possible. That should help you feel a little less focussed on the future and more on just getting to know her.

If you are worried about being "friend-zoned" I can tell you that I spent eight weeks doing dance classes with my girl before I asked her out. We have just had a first year together and things are going swimmingly. Being friend-zoned is a myth. If you feel strongly about her, you make your move and see what happens. Taking time allows you to be sure.

Good luck mate. I'm rooting for you!

Damn it man, be more confident! Her fidgeting is a good indicator that she has feelings to you, as well as her comments on your shirts and, if you are correct, her looking at you while you worked out. Talk to her, ask her if she plays SC2, and ASK HER OUT!

I think the point is that Artemis doesn't feel confident enough to just straight up ask a stranger out, and make no mistake she is a stranger. It takes some serious balls to do that, particularly if you really like the girl.

I still think it is better to get to know her and feel more confident, than to try and bullshit confidence. Sure there are indicators that she is interested but if Artemis isn't fully confident than what is the problem with trying a simple conversation?

Risk/reward here guys...

please correct me if i'm wrong -- you mentioned that the gym was in the mall/at the mall/near the mall? if so, i'd suggest NOT hanging out at the mall after she gets off work. i used to work at the mall and it got very old. hanging out at the mall after work seemed like..."hey, after work, do you want to hang out at work?" maybe a movie? or a coffee shop somewhere else?

good luck!

The upside of meeting in the mall is that it is an area she's bound to know well and that it's a very public place. As someone said earlier, she doesn't know whether the OP has good intentions or not, so such a place might make her feel more secure .

UPDATE: Talked to her again this morning, although she was busy. Only got to ask her how her day was going and no real conversation.

Y'know, eventually you're going to have to start putting on the green instead of the rough.
Try going during in-between hours when it is less busy :B

Just a piece of advice, I'm not sure if your Portal 2 shirt is your go to workout shirt or you keep wearing it so she will comment on the game again, but I would advise switching it up a bit. Preferably with something non-gaming related so she knows you have more to talk about than just video games.

Woah guys, this is where it gets tricky. Because right now we're behind in every conceivable aspect [...] The only thing we're not behind in is micro. Right? We got tons of that shit.

This is an idea to get you into the right situation.

Go a little later than normal and find out what time she gets off work.

The next time you go, wait until about 10 mins before she leaves and order a drink and talk to her. When she has to leave say something like "Hey i'm going to XXX to get a coffee/drink whatever, want to join me?" I leave the rest up to you.

Some advice. Be yourself. It's a lot harder than it sounds. Don't pigeonhole yourself as a "Gamer guy" and her as a "gamer girl". I'm sure you enjoy other things and so does she. Try to find out what kinds of things you like, don't like etc. Don't do the dinner/movie thing. Take her somewhere fun like mini-golf or a video arcade. At the end of the night say something like "This was fun, would you like to hang out again?" and that will get you her number. Don't call her right away, wait at least 24 hours otherwise you just will appear obsessive.

Other than that, it's all up to your personality. Enjoy!


This. And also, you might want to wait more than 24 hours, because if you get her number at 2am and call her back 24 hours later... I'm just being a douche ignore me

Def find out her name and more about her before asking her out. She'll be more inclined to go out with "artemis from the gym" rather than "some guy from the gym". Its important she knows a little bit about you first!

Don't dwell on the specifics of exactly what to say because when she realizes she is being ask out she will either accept or decline regardless of how you ask her (unless you do it torte's style, then its an auto-yes, XD )

I didn't want to bump up your blog without you posting first, but I felt I had to when I read that "Being friend-zoned is a myth" statement. This is totally NOT true. Being friend-zoned is completely legitimate and it does happen with every girl, only the length of time differs. Probulous got lucky, most girls won't stay interested that long. In fact about 5 months ago I got friend-zoned by a girl in my study group. After I asked her out she was like, "I liked you when we first met, and I was really hoping you would ask me out, but things change you know?". Do not let yourself fall into this trap. Waiting a small amount of time is okay, if you want to make sure she is as cool as she seemed to be, but don't wait too long. Plus once you get your answer, you won't have to worry anymore, about stuff like: is she going to be there today when I work out, what should I wear to start a conversation, stuff like that. Even if she says no, the relief of not having to think about that kind of stuff will outweigh the disappointment. Good luck man.

Go for it

Quite a few people lambaste girl blogs, but they're still quite entertaining and/or cute.

Lmao these fucking girl blogs are always the same. "I want to ask this girl out without asking, putting myself out there, possibly being rejected!" Just ask her out dude, it's not going to be creepy unless, as another poster said, you make it creepy. Just talk to her like you have been, and then just say something like, "Would you want to grab a coffee sometime?" Just ask something casual. If she's interested, she'll agree, if she isn't, she'll make some sort of excuse. Either way, she isn't going to yell no into your face and then laugh as you walk away - rejecting someone is just as awkward as being rejected, so she's going to make it as painless as possible even if she wasn't into you. Either way, just ask.

Touche` good sir.

My hyperbole has been exposed and for this I offer a rewarding lager

Seriously though, you are right in that you can get friend-zoned. My concern is that people use it as an excuse to just go hard from day one. If you are confident and the girl is really in to you then this may work. I still think the risk of being friend-zoned is far lower than pretending to be confident when you aren't.

Take time and do what feels comfortable. If it turns out that "things change", I would like to know exactly how? You got to know each other better? If it turns out she is no longer attracted to you then perhaps the initial thing was a crush? Have no doubt if you take a very long time she will be surprised, but if she says no then perhaps things would have ended up this way anyway.

I don't want to start an argument, as above I agree I went too far but I do feel people have this weird idea that relationships have to start from day 1.

Way but where is Artemis?

I need an update. I have invested too much in this blog for it to die...

Come on Artemis give us an udpate. Please!

I, too, am very interested in how it all turned out for him. I'm pulling for him, hoping she said yes. If she says she has a boyfriend, ask if he goes to that gym, if she says no, tell her you do and walk away. Leave her interested
