Your choice. You either feel nervous for a couple of minutes and have a shot, or you spend months kicking yourself. cheers, Chris Maunder
I'm not shy about talking to women and if I see her I'm going for it. Besides, kicking yourself hurts. :) I just hope all goes well, and I'm looking for pointers from other people's memory (hehe - nerd joke). I just don't want to seem flaky. Of course, if she's not interested it won't happen regardless; I'm just looking for some wisdom from the mob. Jeremy L. Falcon "The One Who Said, 'The One Who Said...'" Homepage : Sonork = 100.16311

Wow - it's been ages since we've had one of these on the lounge! The Code Project dating service and advice centre is now open. Call me wild and zany but why not simply go up to here and say 'I hear you're moving to a new gym. I would have liked to get to know you more. How about a coffee sometime' (exchange numbers, pleasantries, etc).
This is exactly why your escapades are not ever told on Seinfeld! Too boring. Not a bit of intrigue or subterfuge there. Just pure honesty.

It's just that I am not the best conversationalist (I think) and I'll be nervous as hell. Ain't life funny? It's all too easy if I don't care what I come off like, but when I do -- sheesh! Jeremy L. Falcon "The One Who Said, 'The One Who Said...'" Homepage : Sonork = 100.16311

00100000011010000110010101110010011001010010111000000000If you're nervous, then don't fully commit yourself. Put out a message and see if she bites. For example, you walk up to her and during the conversation, off-handedly say something like "Oh man. It's too bad you're leaving here. Just when I find someone cool to talk to." At this point, the girl is going to either look nervous (because she knows where you're headed and doesn't want you to ask) or she's going to give you some sort of feedback (like "Yea. That does suck"). Now based on her response, you can say something innocent like "Hey. You wanna have a coffee sometime?" The words obviously have to be yours, but remember two things here: 1) Even if she says something "God no!", she's leaving and you'll never see her again! So you really have nothing to lose. 2) From the movie Cable Guy, "He who hesitates, masturbates."

Aw man! Okay, I'm at the gym this morning and, as usual, this girl and I have been eyeing each other for a couple weeks now. The problem is I found out today that she's switching to a new gym and tomorrow will be her last day at the gym where I work out. I hope she's there (time-wise) when I go in tomorrow because I want to start a conversation. My experiences with women have been a bit on the wilder side and I haven't come across a quality girl yet -- which I think this chick is. So, guys and gals alike, what should I be doing tomorrow to not come off like a horndog but still get her number? I ask this, because in this setting we are already, hot and sweaty, etc. Obviously, "Hey, nice ass!" isn't the best way to start a conversation with her. I know some of you are married and some of you are quality girls yourselves, both of which had to endure a similar situation in which I assume you prevailed. So, there has be some advice CPians can lend me! Jeremy L. Falcon "The One Who Said, 'The One Who Said...'" Homepage : Sonork = 100.16311

00100000011010000110010101110010011001010010111000000000Ok, I have read what everyone else has told you, which is pretty much on the money, especially what Chris said about kicking yourself for months after. I think the best thing is to truly try and be yourself (to some degree). What I mean is, look at it this way, everyone here is, to some degree a *computer nerd*. It would probably be a turn off if you start off your conversation with "...So the other night I was instantiating this object when..." This doesn't mean that you have to find a girl that is a developer herself, just remember as far as small talk goes, software development should be pretty low on the list. Ask her what her interests are or ask if she would like a spotter when doing that bench press :) Good luck man, were all rooting for you... Nick Parker

Or say, "How about doin' a gobler on my baby maker? If it works out, maybe we could spend some time in a meaningless sex-only relationship. After I've had my way with you, I'll heartlessly dump you and move on with a clear concscience, and you can start hating men with a vengence due to some misplaced and unreasonable belief that we share the same life goals. By the way, you have some righteous cones."

There's a big difference between what this sentence states (Have the guts to make a move) and stalking someone. Stalking only occurs after she says No :) Cheers, Tom Archer Author, Inside C# Please note that the opinions expressed in this correspondence do not necessarily reflect the views of the author.

Walk up to her and ask her if she's heard about the new policies which are going to be introduced in the gym as from next week. She will then tell you that she will not be attending this gym anymore. Ask her why and find out more about the new gym she's going to move to. Then ask her for her email address so that you can contact her in case you decide to switch gyms too. If she gives you her email it means that she wouldn't mind you joining her gym also. If she doesn't give you any contact info, it means that she does not want to be in contact with you. (2b || !2b)
Yeah, after you find out what gym she's moving to, you can stalk her there instead. Here's some handy rules I follow when I start a new encounter:
-
Don't forget to bring some livestock (that really turns chicks
on). -
Bring pictures of your last "conquest" (just make sure they are
of when she was alive). -
Mention how much she reminds you of your mother, but:
A) Try to control the drooling and the nervous twitch as you
say "mother"B) Don't let her hear the insane giggling afterwards.
C) It might be wise not to say anything about your belief that
your mom was also your older sister. -
Try to at least wear your underwear UNDER your pants.
-
Don't wear the "Duct Tape Pro" ballcap. Afterall, you want to
save some of the really good stuff for later.

So how do you know it's her last day? At any rate, you should at least say "hi" to her and play it cool (do this as soon as you see her) Later on in the workout, approach her again and start off the conversation with some small talk....if she is interested, she will give the signals....you know...from the Learning Channel that show on human sexuality....playing with her hair, exposing her neck, etc etc :cool:
Ed Worsfold wrote: So how do you know it's her last day? Every now and then, she'll come to workout next to me. Well, this morning a couple of guys were coincidentally hanging around me. She came up to them and started talking as if they were all friends. She told them tomorrow's her last day. I overheard because they well all very close, and not to mention I was listening. ;P Ed Worsfold wrote: Later on in the workout, approach her again and start off the conversation with some small talk....if she is interested, she will give the signals....you know...from the Learning Channel that show on human sexuality....playing with her hair, exposing her neck, etc etc Occasionally, she'll also stick her chest out when walking past me. Of course, this is a gym and she could be stretching. There's also the one about the feet (at least one) pointing in your direction -- she does that too! Jeremy L.
