Alright, I need to put my thoughts into writing and I'd love to see what you guys think.
There's this girl who I always see at the gym. I'm there pretty much 6 days a week so we are both pretty dedicated I guess. I've always thought she is really attractive and I appreciate her consistency and hard work, hence the gym crush.
I've probably seen her in there for the past month or two. We have both caught each other staring and I've wanted to talk to her, but the stereotypical "don't approach a girl in the gym" has definitely held me back.
Today, she came up to me and started talking about how she always sees me in here and she respects my dedication (I told her the same). She was saying how she is impressed and so on, and she even said I look great.
She was very cheery and even though she had me flustered, we talked for a couple minutes on our school background, what we're doing now, etc. (I'm not doing the interaction justice describing it right now).
I didn't ask for her number or insist on giving her my number that instant because for some reason in my head I was thinking that'd be desperate. Basically, self doubt kept me from giving her my number right then.
The good thing is like I mentioned earlier, I see her there all the time. So I think the next time I see her, I'm going to just go up to her and tell her I appreciated her approaching me and that if she's interested, she can have my number.
But for some reason I'm still having some doubts on if that's the right thing to do. I know she pretty much did all the hard work of making the first move and the opportunity is practically screaming in my face, but I always have this mind fog that forms some self doubt about situations that could go well for me.
I think I need a real therapist, but reddit is infinitely cheaper lol. Thoughts?
