What's a smooth way to start talking to a girl without making it weird?

Hey everyone,
I'm reaching out to ask for some advice. I live in a pretty small village somewhere in Europe. Last summer, I spotted a beautiful girl at an event in our village. When the opportunity came, I didn’t hesitate and went to talk to her — we chatted for a bit, though it really only lasted a few minutes. My communication with girls wasn’t the best at the time (and honestly, it’s still not great when I’m talking to someone I really like), so it didn’t go anywhere. Later, I found out she had a boyfriend back then, so I didn’t dwell on it too much.

Since then, I’ve worked on myself — I used to be quite skinny, but that’s changed. I started working out, gained some weight and I’ve even received a few nice compliments from girls about my physique, which made me really happy.

I’ve seen this girl a few times since then at the gym I go to. Each time, it’s only been a quick “hi.” Maybe I’m just imagining things but during our first encounter at the gym, I noticed her looking at me multiple times - and I’m talking about glances that lasted several seconds, not just the usual quick looks.

I know her name and I’ve been thinking about messaging her on Facebook. The thing is, I’m not sure if it’s a good idea.

I have no clue if she’s currently in a relationship and if she is, I don’t want to come across as weird or end up wasting a potential opportunity. What would you suggest — how should I approach this?

Tell her you love how soft her skin is when first talking to her, mention lotion and then on the spot ask her to marry you. Chicks love that.

@being it doesss, but there's still a way to stay alive! Just say "I prefer pastitsio" and then walk away while mutttering about the makaronides.
