We're both attracted to one another and he's quite the gentleman, if you ask me. But the past few days, however, he's a no show. I'm sure he's busy or tied up at work, but by any chance would he be avoiding me? If so, why do men avoid women that they're attracted to and will he ever ask me out?Any advice/insight is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I agree with the first response to this. He is likely just busy. I've been sort of anxious and insecure because a girl I'm supposed to be going with to the cinema hasn't been in touch to arrange an actual date yet, but she's definitely been busy as hell for the last couple of days, so I'm going to wait it out. If she doesn't get in touch at all, or does just to cancel, I'll assume she changed her mind about me... or that she got swept up in her current work and social life and will hopefully show an interest again when her life is less hectic. One way or another I'm not going to spend lots of time wondering and being overly eager. I'd kind of recommend the same thing here. He could be missing from the gym for so many reasons. Work's busier, his timetable has changed so he goes at a different time, he's been ill this week etc. etc. If he doesn't show again, it will suck, but at least it won't involve you stringing yourself along.
I hope he does show up though, if you're both attracted. I hope the girl I might have a shot with gets in touch too!

He's probably just busy. Men don't avoid a woman they are attracted to UNLESS the guy is married or already is in a relationship and wants to avoid the temptation to cheat. Relax you'll have your answer soon enough I reckon.
