I realized one of the chicks I thought was checking me out was just checking herself out. I thought this girl in the gym was checking me out yesterday. I saw her at the gym again today and it turns out she is just checking out her own form in the mirror on the exercise bike.
I tried starting up a convo with her for my noon workout:
we're both watching tv.
me: "that's a big ring."
her: "that's a HUGE ring."
We fluff a bit. I find out she's running for a track team. She gives me fairly brief, polite answers. I don't notice any "hot" IOI's, just pleasant, bland, emotionally flat conversation. I initiated three times, making a comment or asking a question. She didn't pick up the ball after that.
So sometimes it's an AI, sometimes I guess not. Curiosity got the better of me, and I basically got a brief, bland conversation for my trouble.
I was pretty tentative, not really pushing the conversation with any energy or enthusiasm. I could have led a bit better. It's my first approach in a while.
