Best to get to know him before deciding to go after him full speed.

Best wishes.
That's the red flag for me because, if I read it correctly, she has not even spoken to him but believes she is somehow "crazy" about him.

Jeebus...has the electronic age completely destroyed everyone's ability to communicate?

You walk up to him, say hi, I have been noticing you, I get done with my routine at 3:30; would you please join me for a protein shake/tea/martini at 4 pm?

Look him straight in the eye. Flash a little skin. Blink the eyes...and if he hesitates, give him the girly "please"?

The good news is there's another guy at the gym who's older than me, and I think he's the one that wrote a missed connection for me because he looks very familiar. I just can't confirm it, but if he's who I think he is, then he has a kid like me, and he's attractive, but not too handsome (which is what I prefer). I usually do my upper body whenever I see him, but now I'm thinking about switching it to legs day just for him.
This sounds good to me, OP. You'd be more comfortable with a guy like that. And he's obviously not anti-kid.

Yes.

But the OP is almost 40. She should have some dim recollection from her childhood as to how face-to-face communication works.

True. IME, going for someone based only on looks results in failed matches.

Tried & true - the patented "Wanna f**k?"

It doesn't seem like you guys are the best match but at least you might get a good time or two out of it...

Oh, this one is easy. Do what neighbors have been doing for decades:

Cover yourself in a bit of flour, go knock on his door and ask to borrow a cup of sugar.

You have a child. He doesn't want to date anyone with a child. The end. Dealbreaker.

Also, no more cyberstalking.
This says it all!
