So I'm at the gym this evening as I normally am most any week night. Was talking with a girl I met a few months back who takes a rigorous work-out class with me. We've talked a lot since meeting and I genuinely enjoy our talks. She's pretty, educated and intelligent. Well, I've suspected she's been interested in me in a much different way than I've been interested in her. I've never told her that I prefer men and probably won't but I thought I had said enough things to discourage her from pursuing me.
Anyway, we're standing there talking tonight and after some lengthy conversation about general things, she said to me, "I've got a question I would like to ask you". I knew immediately this was going to be more than just a nominal question. She proceeds to ask me if I'd consider going out with her. My suspicions were confirmed. I was totally not expecting her to ask me out though. I've only had one other girl in my whole life to ask me out and that was years ago. I was a bit shocked and quickly stammered to find words to answer her.
I said to her that if I were open to dating right now that I would consider it. And although that's not the complete truth it is partially true. I feel kind of bad and don't won't things to be awkward between us. Been thinking about it most of the night and have determined that I'm going to try my best to not let it become awkward. I'm going to see her many more nights at the gym, since we're both regulars, and I'm just going to continue acting towards her as I always have.
Well, here comes the interesting part......The whole time we're talking there's this guy that I've been incredibly attracted to who is walking around, working out and he and I keep trading glances. We've eyed each other a number of times in the past and even spoken a few times. My gaydar screams when he's around but I'm still not 100% sure.
When I finally part ways with the girl I head into the locker room and guess who's in there totally naked taking a shower. Yep, it's him. I'm so smitten with his physical appearance. Very good looking guy with an amazing body. I tried to keep from staring but you know how it is when you see somebody so attractive. I decided to skip the shower and leave because it was so late but just as I'm about to walk out of the locker room, I turn to get one last glimpse of his beautiful body. He catches me looking and I swear he shot me grin. I know I started blushing and immediately looked away and left.
The whole evening was just so bizarre to me. I'm being asked out by a girl and at the same exact time, a guy is cruising me (at least I think so) and the girl is totally oblivious to the fact that I'm not interested in her, but in fact, am interested in the guy who's eyeing me from behind her. I feel bad. I feel flattered. I feel nervous. I just feel weird! I really don't want any awkwardness between the girl and me. I am truly flattered that she is attracted to me.
I feel so nervous about pursing the thing with the guy, not being sure if I'm being naive like the girl and misreading his vibes. The facts are: She wants me. I want him. And I am uncertain what he wants. If he and she would swap roles the whole scenario would be perfect. He'd ask me out. I'd say, "yes". I wouldn't care what her glances meant and would probably never know. You have now read about my crazy night at the gym. But seriously guys, you really should see this dude. The word "fine" doesn't even come close!
