How did I do?

[oc16]

I'm in my late 30's, there is a girl I like from the gym probably around 30ish. I don't see her much and have only had two very brief exchanges with her in the past year at the gym that lasted maybe 5 to 10 seconds.

I work in a public place and noticed her in my building last few weeks. I saw her yesterday sitting down at a table. I decided to approach her. I felt like my heart was coming through my chest and I feel I appeared nervous. The Convo lasted about a minute and I got her name.

However, I believe I showed a set of brass balls by approaching her, especially since approaching a woman outside a bar/club without any booze makes it that more difficult and awkward.

What do you guys think?

You have had three interactions, in a whole year, all together totaling about 90 seconds.

The approach you perceived as having courage and showing her brass balls was likely not at all seen that way by her.

If you want ANY chance with this woman, go all in and ask her out/or to have drinks next time you see her. Do not string out multiple contacts over time before doing so as you will only come across weaker and weaker as time passes. You have nothing to lose at this point. Just go for it. No guts, no glory.

Brass balls! And all without John Barleycorn.
