At my gym over the past couple of months I've noticed a cute girl who works out around the same time I do and I was interested in asking her out, but I'm kind of awkward and I don't approach girls in the gym.
A few times I've seen her talk to a guy who she seems to be friends with, I haven't seen anything romantic or flirtatious between them and I was pretty confident they weren't together. So my awkward self decided to talk to the guy and ask him if she was single (very junior high of me I know). He said he had no idea, that they know each other because they used to work together, and have been friends ever since. As he was talking she came walking over to us, and before I could stop him he turned to ask her:
(Paraphrasing what I remember)
Him: hey are you single? Becau-
Her: God it's about time! I have been waiting forever for you to ask me out.
Him: uh...
Her: ...is that not what you were asking?
Him: yeah it is! Are you free Saturday?
Her: absolutely! Text me, I have to get going soon.
Throughout this I was just standing there like a third wheel watching like a doofus. After she left he turned to me with an apologetic look on his face and said he'd always had a crush on her but never acted because he didn't want to hurt their friendship if she didn't feel the same way.
I told him I completely understood and was happy for both of them.
All in all, -1 for me and +2 for them = net gain for love.
TL ; DR
Wanted to ask girl out, ended up getting her together with someone else.
