This is why I suck

Let's set up the scenario here:

Location: Weight Room at the Y
Time: Sunday, around 2:00 PM
Workout: Shoulders
Exercise: Upright row

So I'm chillin there, doing some upright row, when I notice this girl out of the corner of my eye. Completely my type physically, blonde hair, blue eyes, beautiful facial features, nice looking body, from what I could ascertain. I just notice this, and go back to my exercise. I finish, and I start over to the short bench to do seated overhead press, and I catch her looking a bit. Nothing really, and who knows what it could mean. So I'm resting in between my 2nd and third set of that, and we kinda make eye contact. I noticed before she had blue eyes. I notice now that they're really nice looking. So I continue my workout, finish up with that, go to do some lat raises on the machine, and then go to do front shoulder raises. I pass by her, and I look passively and notice she's glancing as well. So I do a couple sets, and strategically go to get water on the other side of the gym, so as to pass her. I look at her, she smiles at me, and I throw a bit of a grin her way. I'm smooth like that.

Later on, I'm about to walk out, and I notice her on the cardio machine, looking all exercisey. So I shoot her a look, get a smile in return, and walk out.

Fast forward to Monday. I see her in the gym again. It's back day, so I hit a few exercises up, and notice during my 2nd set of one-armed row that girl is there again. Another glance from me, and a kind of smile from her. At this point, I can tell there's interest there, but we must remember that I'm a bit intimidated by girls I don't know (coming back to the title of the thread "This is why I suck"). I don't go up and talk to her, and after one more such exchange, another guy is talking to her, and that's that for me.

Fast forward to today. Chest Day. She is there again. I am there again. There is one instance of eye contact. No smile. Sadness for me.

So now I'm all pissed about not talking to this girl. It would have been easy. Walk up to her and say hi...but no...I suck, and therefore a girl that may be interested in me thinks I probably have no interest back. Wasn't the case, but now seems so.

Why do I not approach a gorgeous girl that seems interested in me? I dunno, is it because I'm just not into that whole picking up girls at the gym thing? Is it because I don't want to interrupt my workout? Hell no. It's cause I keep thinking "the right time will be later." Guess not...so now, I didn't get to talk to cute blonde girl. And that's why I suck.

At least I got full workouts in :) Holla.
