With all the twists and turns going on, the only way OP is going to be validated is if the girl ends up trying to rope him into some religious cult or pyramid scheme.

We started talking after that and she was basically asking me to teach her how to do pull ups in a non-forward way paraphrased you can do them I can't I wish I could, my gym partner is injured etc.

She gave me her number and I waved good bye again.

she tricked me or not.

Yeah, OP is a robot or something. I mean, come on.

This is like a sadder version of A.I., if instead of wanting a mother Haley Joel Osment freaked out over food and whenever he tried to say goodbye he could only wave.

I would like to read about that, so I hope it takes that dark turn. I'm worried this will just be about eating lunch at work with co-workers and working out in the office gym.

OP was the gym you mentioned in your steamy pull-up trainer session in your office building?

So I caught up with her at the gym. Said Hi, and she mumbled hi back, she looked busy with shit so I just let her get on with it.

She gave me her number and I waved good bye again.

To be fair, this time I was covered in sweat and a hug would have been more of an assault of the olfactory system than anything else.

Edit: Still no confirmation if it's anything more than platonic or whether she tricked me or not.

If you're not interested, then stop pretending to be nice to someone. Just ignore her and she'll get the message. Or respond with a curt and short message (yes, no, okay, etc) if she starts asking for something. Even better, grab a headphone and use that while at the gym and near her proximity.

You are GAFman in real life.
 
I couldn't even get through the OP of the friendzone thread. The looking at me from across the class one is excellent and about time for another read of it.
 
At first I thought this would be a thread about being classified as old by dating yourself through cultural references, but this is better.

Ask yourself OP:
Do you find her attractive?
Are you single?
Do you think you would like to see this girl again?
Did you enjoy talking to and have stuff in common with this girl?

If you said yes to at least half these things, ask her out on a formal date. Just do it OP.
 
OP, as a 40yo married man with 2 kids let me tell you that life can get fairly mundane. Still good, just not as exciting as before.

Now, when your life eventually reaches that point, and it will, you're gonna regret your actions here.

I'm fucking regretting them for you right now.

She's cute and spending time with you (willingly! Christ I don't know why smh) so for the love of God, man the fuck up and do something with this bounty that the universe has provided.
 
I think the best part of this, is that he easily just has an hour long lunch with her and presumably does an awesome job at that given the follow up gym situation. It's the end of the lunch with the wave and the feeling of being duped that has him put off and posting.

Somehow he manages to OTGAF the situation, even though he is in a way better situation than the vast majority of OT who find it hard to even chat or be forward with women. This is why I will forever be a GAF member and at the very least skim over OT, as there is just to much awesomeness.
 
Progression of the relationship:

Date 3:
"I bet you dinner that Orlando Bloom was in Star Wars"

Date 20:
"Hey my parents are sitting at that table!"

Date 50:
"There's this wedding happening and I really don't want to go alone. Lets go as friends!"
 
OP she is dying of thirst and you can save her by quenching that thirst. Lead her to your watering hole and show her who the king of the jungle is.

Nah man, all women are secret super perverts who try to con men into giving up their innocence. This one got close but OP is on top of things.

OP, she doesn't want your innocence, she wants your sperm. Run away, before she seduces you and gets pregnant, thus forcing you into a life of child support.

That, or she wants company at lunch to talk to.

Whichever.
 
Somewhere on the internet, right now a woman is making a thread about how she's worried she scared off her crush because she awkwardly asked him to teach her how to do pull-ups and how she's worried she went into far too much detail about the circumstances behind why she needed him to teach her how to do pull-ups.

You're destined for each other.

Sure, that's the Nicholas Sparks part of the story. You left out the part where she insidiously schemed to meet him in the office cafeteria all by herself, using deception and womanly guile to trick him into thinking he was eating with her friends. After all, she knows he's eaten lunch with many men and women before.

Are we sure this isn't all a metaphor for something else?
 
I feel really bad for OP because in some years OP will look back on this and realize a possible relationship fell right into their lap all nice and with no stress or anything in the first date and OP instead of rising to the occasion just turned and practically ran away. This is one of those things you kick yourself over repeatedly over the years until you're an old man and all you can do is chuckle and laugh at how ridiculous you were in your youth.
