Why do girls show interested but ignore after you approach?

I've been seeing this girl at my gym for about 4,5 month. She looked interested and caugh her looking from time to time then I decided to approach her. I waited for her to finish her workout and I kinda introduced my self and asked her about her workout. After that I saw her couple of times and she avoided me. She look at me when I'm not looking from far but everytime we come across she tries not to look at me. She might be a little shy but not sure. Should I wait until she breaks the ice.

    Doesn't sound like she's interested, or she wouldn't be avoiding you. If she make the next move, go for it, otherwise, don't push things.

    It might be shyness. The more shy a girl is and the more attracted to you she is, the more she flinches and backs off from you.

    Unfortunately, shyness is one of the biggest killers of getting along with someone in a relationship. The person is shy because they don't have a strong self-esteem, which means that anything and everything you do will end up making her get upset with you. Expect a lot of emotional scenes when you get involved with someone who is shy.

    And because they are shy, don't expect that they can open up and communicate with you to solve relationship problems.

    if it is not shyness that makes her ignore you, it is that she enjoyed looking, but wasn't interested in starting anything.

    Women look for bonding, connection, commitment, love ... sex is not that great for MOST women (75%) until they have this with the man. So there are not many women who are looking at you because they want to have sex with you.

    She realized you’re a p*ussy, that’s why she lost interest lol.

    She probably wanted you to invite her to hang and watch a movie at the theater that weekend with you... not make some dumb comments about the workout lol.

    We both know what you both want. She’s wondering, “why isn’t he man enough to just ASK?”

    Don’t ask her for coffee tho. Coffee is gay. That’s a friend zone thing to do. Instead invite her to see a movie. And if you really wanna be confident, add “at my place” after movie. Example “hey, doing anything after this?” Her “no or yes” (doesn’t matter, either way then you say) “Wanna hang and see a movie at my place later?”

    If she says no, then you just say “haha hey, suit yourself. Here’s my card if you ever wanna hit me up” and then don’t hit her up again.

    mmm...maybe she is shy and she thinks you are to pretty --she never expect you to approach her...

    but if she ignores you...you should move on..

    one time i read something and yahoo a girl asking: I HAVE ignore my crush and now he ignores me--why he does not try harder?

    pfff-- i am a girl and i hate when girls play too many games with guys😡 so silly..

    Hmmmm, I'm really not sure if she's shy and interested in you, or not interested in you and trying to avoid you. Which I know is not very useful, since those are completely opposite things! I would NOT wait until she breaks the ice, because that will never happen in either situation! I would actually ask her out for coffee. If she says yes or no, you'll very clearly have your answer!
