Help talking to my eye candy

**chiquita6683** · 04-15-2009, 04:00 PM

So me and this guy have been checking each other out for over a year now.

We use to never say anything (we were working out) but I've eventually started asking him how he's doing while passing or getting water. He seems really nice and has a beautiful smile.
So today I was on leg press, had done squats and a bunch of leg presses. On my last set I couldn't get it to lock back in place(too short i guess). I usually have my trainer push it up so I can lock it but he wasn't there today. I both sides were full (9 plates on each side). I start looking around and the first person to look at me, I ask politely to come push it up. He comes over and puts his hand on it, did nothing. So I yelled at him I think (I had earphones on) to push it up, he looks back at me scared. My eye candy comes and saves the day

gets underneath it and pushes the weight up and I lock it back. He returns to his thing and I unload the machine say Thank you and go to another exercise (in this other room).
When I get back our eyes meet and he had this huge smile on his face, I think I might've turned red and said Thank you again. He said your welcome and that was the end of todays interaction.

:
So Im thinking of going up to him next time I see him and be like "You've been my eye candy for over a year now, are you available?" and if he says yes I'll be like " bc if u asked me, I'd gladly give u my number"
What do u think? I need some encouragement, I'll probably chicken out.

easier said than done when it comes to members of the opposite sex

**maniclion** · 04-15-2009, 05:00 PM

"are You Going To Ask Me Out Or Are You Gay?"

No, it really isn't that difficult. Confidently, just walk up to him and start a conversation, you already have a similar interest. Then, ask him out or for his number, whatever-What's the worst thing he can tell you, no.

**T_man** · 04-15-2009, 06:11 PM

start talking to him

you need to beat around the bush or else he'll think you're joking/are a slag(i know u aint) n he sounds like the sort of decent guy who also wants to date a decent girl. If your gym is like mine and has a bar/restaurant go and ask him if he wants some food some time or maybe just ask him if you can meet up some time. Dont mention eye candy cos he might think you only want sex. But then again he's a guy and he goes to a gym so i dont think he'd have a problem with it!

goodluck lol

Yea mentioning eye candy is a bad thought.
No my gym doesn't have a restaurant, not even a smoothie bar and I think he goes to the gym on his lunchbreak.
I am the not the kind of girl that even asks a guy for his #. This would be a big deal for me. I get nervous everytime I ask how hes doing.

**ALBOB** · 04-15-2009, 07:39 PM

Two possibilities: Ask him a weightlifting related question. "Hi, my name's chiquita and you seem to know your way around the gym pretty well, could you help me with my leg press technique? I never seem to be able to isolate my quads." This should effectively break the ice and allow you to move on to more important topics. Besides, based on his answer to the original question, you may decided he's a complete moron and you never want to talk to him again.

Or

Write him a note: "I'm way too nervous to talk face to face, please call me. ###-####."

If he calls, you're set. If not, you were never in the game to begin with.

update clothes to..

**Little Wing** · 04-15-2009, 08:04 PM

if you talk to him do not use the term eye candy.

**Hoglander** · 04-15-2009, 08:20 PM

Just say you never got this name the other day when he helped and introduce yourself.

IMHO

**vader** · 04-15-2009, 08:47 PM

yes, tell him that he is your "eye Candy" he'll get a kick out of it and it will boost his and your confidence. Just go for it, guys like to hear stuff like that

**DiGiTaL** · 04-16-2009, 12:45 AM

i say get to know him more before making a move..you know talking, interacting he'll eventually want ot know more about you and you can slip in the emotional stuff in there lol.

**maxpro2** · 04-16-2009, 12:57 AM

This sounds like a good plan except for the whole eye candy shit... this is not the 1950s for god's sake.

Just say "Dang, wanna bang?"

**Burner02** · 04-16-2009, 02:56 AM

yeah...definate;y ditch the eye candy thing on first conversation...probably would not work out too well.
Let him be the man. If you see him, walk by and say hi and let him make the moev. If he doesn't, walk past again a little later and ask him something...anything to engage him in some small talk. If he likes you...then he'll take it from there.

You're over complicating this way too much.

Walk up to him and introduce yourself. Tell him how appreciative you are for helping you out the other day.

At this point you'll have his name, at least you should if he's any kind of gentleman. He'll likely respond with "your more than welcome or no problem, glad I could help".

Simply build off that. Stop putting so much pressure on yourself and let it happen.

The eye candy crap will not work out. More than likely he'll think this lady wants a one nighter if you use that approach.

You'll know if he's interested after this brief interaction.

**nkira** · 04-16-2009, 11:36 AM

Basically what are you looking for? Longterm or just a fling? Act accordingly.

I think this would be the best approach. You could ask him if he wanted to go for a quick snack somewhere nearby.. "Have you ever had a smoothie at (place)? I'm about to grab one in a few minutes, you should join me!" Then exchange info.

Actually and modestly, of course...I..am THE MAN...however, I'm 1/2 a world away, and although, I'm good...I do accept that I do have limitations...

Now...if I could get to Bagram AB, convince the AF to 'loan' me a 30 mil F-15 to punch a hole in the sky to Florida...rest assured I'D walk over to M and get the date...but! that's just me.
have you seen her pics??? holy hubba, hubba!

**largepkg** · 04-17-2009, 12:32 PM

Chiquita where in Florida are you? I might very well be your eye candy.

**chiquita6683** · 04-17-2009, 12:33 PM

I didn't see him today. Next week I'll probably see him. I'll probably chicken out, unless HE comes up to me (which he has never done

). He's probably married or gay.
