Starting with the little latina: She was on the donkey kick machine (no idea it's actual name) and had looked at me as I walked passed. A couple minutes later she's walking down the aisle I'm working out in, which is interesting because it would've more sense for her to be in another aisle. I'm between sets and come up to her as she got close and asked her what her ethnicity is, where are your parents from? I thought she was Middle Eastern, but turned out Hispanic.

I jump into asking about how long she's been here, has she gone elsewhere, then she mentions Europe and I ask her a bit and recount my Pantheon experience. Proceed into asking if she's in school, then what she's studying. I was off like a rocket, which I think would be the main fault in this interaction, if anything major. I am VERY good at rolling through a conversation as long as the other side is semi-engaged, to the point I should chill a bit on approaches like this.

We sort the basics out and then I ask if she's single, and she gives a sheepish "yesss", and I say "You look really cute. How'd you like to grab coffee or something sometime?" She responded with "Hmmm maybe" with a decently positive tone (maybe her Latina-ness had to play hard to get), so I reply "Maybe? Well how about I get your number and we can see", and she went along with that happily. I wrap things up with mentioning I'll need to get back to work soon and she said her bye. Waited a good 30 minutes and sent simple introductory texts (this is the part where nearly all my approaches this year have died), and happily she responded equally. Planning to text her after normal work hours about meeting up.

I'm open to any thoughts!


Onto the Others:

Asked out another, VERY attractive Latina, but miffed it a bit by hedging things in the fact she's leaving soon (vacation), but how about we meet anyways, which made it easy for her to say maybe when she comes back. We'll see about that one. Also interacted with the young Latina I've done reports on. I was walking passed her and she did one rep on a machine and stopped, so I thought she was trying to engage. Was playing trainer (it's hardly an act tbf, the only reason I'm not an official one is I want more pay) and encouraging her to do more as she seemed to have some issue with the machine. She was SOO bashful, but I'd hold the handle up to her and just wait, so she'd cave. That happened a few times until she had a solid movement, then I grinned and said good job, and went about my day (I asked her out again yesterday and continue to get the "too busy" schpeel. She looks smitten with me whenever I talk to her, but can't get her out).


The Main Event:

Onto the bigger event of the day (as an addition to this FR lol), the Muslim girl I've been quite focused on lately showed up unexpectedly as I was talking to the very attractive Latina. My gameplan was to invite her to a type of restaurant she said she's trying to find a good one of. I chatted and teased her a bit before going off to continue my workout (she was just starting). Later I was nearly done so started to go for the kill and asking her to go with eat with me. She continues to say she can't because of her long-distance thing. We interact a lot and I make her follow me around the gym for a while, including doing a farmer carry with 100lb dumbbells (each side) and she seemed to trail me during this, I imagine to check me out lol.

We chat, there's plenty of teasing, substance, and sexual topics mixed in (I find it fucking wild she isn't jumping me... same for a bunch of the guys in the gym that call her my girlfriend lol). I press occasionally to go out in slightly different angles, mainly pushing to meet later today given our schedules. She eventually mentions I'm "pushing it" and I say "if you don't go to eat with me, what am I losing?" That got her lol.

I put my weights back and she wants to do steep treadmill work for a while (she was dolled up for an event for her niece, so avoiding heavy work). I am off to the side doing a lower setting (sprints are tomorrow) and we chat for half an hour. Talk about her faithfulness, how I value that trait but don't see the point with this long distance thing. Plenty of other topics, including me mentioning she's "bigger" today (boobs) and she just goes straight into how it's a normal bra versus sports. She also mentioned someone telling her to find a man because she's too riled up (fucking kill me dude...). I tried setting up chase frames about her looking all nice (makeup) and wanting to show me, this seemed to get drowned out for some reason, no real reply to it. I press occasionally to go to the place and still not really budging, though it's never a firm shutdown.

We part ways, she's trailing off to her car and me mine and she holds out her fist for a bump, but I tell her to "get over here" for a side hug (we're in clear view from the front desk, who all know me and I'm not trying to full hug in literally the middle of the street lol), she listens and is off. I decided to Hail Mary it and send a substantial text as I'm pretty much done spending time on her anyways (I usually finish lifting first and train her while talking to her until she's done, big time sink).

Prefacing this with WHY I find her long distance thing a joke: it's been 8 months, they've been long distance (different time zone long) the whole time, seen each other for maybe 10 days total, and have no plan for not being long distance and he runs his family's businesses and she is a family girl with her whole family here, so....

"I know you want to be loyal and that's great, but I see such a weak link in what you're being loyal to. I have no intentions of going for girls with a solid situation or real plans to make it solid. Yours barely started before we met and you've seen me much more. Chemistry paired with attraction is such a rare thing, it'd be a shame to throw it away"

She's currently hanging out with her niece for a long time and assuming she read my text (she's been REALLY bad about that, that's the biggest red flag toward her interest), she get's to stew on this.


So any thoughts on any of these other things? Again, feeling over the Muslim girl, despite how nice things are with her, she needs to meet outside of the gym or I'm done wasting time on her.

From what i can see here your verbal choice is off. noticed you are chasing her with questions then asking her out which contributed to why she said maybe…

Just imagine you were more focused on these two things: “I” over “you” & using more statements than questions …doing this can lead to questions from her...and a long back and forth of statements builds tension…a good rule of thumb to use questions is for when youre trying to clarify her, to make sure you understand her ...or when youre challenging her

Driving a solid hook without too much questioning includes verbal strategies like:

• observations about her ie cold reads are great to escalate from nothing to something. her current mindset
• reality pacing on the environment around you [people are so serious around here!]
• intriguing topics [simple complexity and complex simplicity in the context of her field - works well for smarter chicks]
• imaginative topics [where you would go…there are many possibilities…]

Oh yeah, I make my own comments quite a bit, the issue is I leave no gaps for her to take hold. That was what i meant by going off like a rocket and needing to chill a bit. Talked about her degree choice/med school and travel mostly. Asked where she wanted to end up and said she should try living in San Diego, which works well when you're a doctor. Again, just wasn't leaving much of a gap for her to come in with questions between her replies and my statements/questions. Could do with adding cold reads and observations.

Reflecting, maybe that should be my focus for a while, hook points and be willing to lose interactions if I'm not orchestrating the entire conversation. Oddly one of the downsides to improving my conversating skills is this (maybe nervous?) steamrolling I do on approaches. It's mostly questions and getting her talking, but still leave no gaps
