what-does-this-statement-mean-vt130274.html?highlight=
For a quick summary though:
- Girl I see a lot at gym
- Showed a lot of interest in me
- Asked her out and went on two dates (dinner + late night picnic)
- She suggested we lie down together during picnic and she put her head on me and said "just to let you know, I move really slow"
- The following week, she said she just wanted to be friends bc she felt like we were more like friends and that it was weird seeing each other so much at the gym
The girl doesn't play games and is very honest and straightforward. She's shy, but also independent and confident in herself.
So enough of the background.
After she put me in the friendzone, I told her I would need to move on and I've just been ignoring her at the gym. I haven't been rude or anything, but I don't start conversations with her or anything like that. Last week, she went to stretch on the mat next to me and said hi and was about to start a conversation with me. I just stuck my tongue out at her and just gave a smile. She did the same thing and smiled back. I didn't really want to talk because I don't want to be "just friends" so I didn't say anything to her and left the mat after a couple of minutes.
Last night, she was leaving the gym and I was close to her path. She comes up and says hi. She tells me that I look cute. I said thanks, so do you. More small talk and conversation dies down. It was just silence and she doesn't leave and just stays there in front of me. After a bit, I say "that was a quick workout. didn't you just get here?" She said something like "you know, you're right. i'm gonna go workout on the mat a bit more." She goes to the mat and I see her look at me a couple times. She's been looking at me a lot even after she put me in the friendzone. She's done this even before we went on our two dates.
I feel like she likes me, but I'm not sure if I should try to go for it again or just let this one go. When we had our friendzone talk, she told me she found me really attractive, but didn't feel anything aside for friendship. Plus the gym awkwardness bothered her. Is she simply looking at me bc she finds me attractive or do you think her behavior means she's still interested.
Not sure what my next move should be.
