I smiled at my gym crush and he actually talked to me — WHAT NOW

so I’ve been going to the gym for a couple months now and this older guy caught my eye. we’ve been making eye contact for a while, like months of just glancing at each other and never speaking. after about five months of this back and forth eye contact situation, I finally got brave enough to smile at him.

well today he actually talked to me. he complimented how I smelled and even asked what perfume I was wearing. I was lowkey shaking after I walked away. I haven’t stopped thinking about it.

now I’m just wondering, does this mean he might be into me or am I just delusional and reading too much into it?
