she's also quitting and I won't see her again. would it be weird to get her a gift or thank you card for all of the effort she put into talking to me and trying to help?
tl;dr how do I get social skills? even with help I'm still a friendless loser a better body from the gym (3 days a week for the past year) hasn't helped either
>only 3 days a week thats why you dont get girls like her time to start going 5 days a week minimum and get athletic mate
i hope you have some hobbies too
get regular haircuts btw
Hudson Morris
>i know she thinks of me as a nonsexual object
Use her for social gains, plain and simple. She is even helping you mate. This is the only answer for girls below/above your league. Meanwhile get fitter and make $/other gains.
Also, don't get a gift. Just act as your other coworkers with respect to her quitting.

Depending on what you read/watch this is ok.
If shitty fiction you should find something better to do with your time. Maybe come to Veeky Forums or /g/.
Brayden Parker
erm talk to her dumbass but dont get attached.
Dominic Sullivan
lift stats? are you somewhat Veeky Forums or just not completely skelly or skinnyfat?
what are your ambitions/goals in life?
The whole be confident thing isnt a meme, people just dont understand it. You cant fake confidence if your life is a black whole. A fat bastard of a loser can try to act confident but it wont be real.
If you have ambitions, youre well rounded, you're sure of yourself and you know you'll make it, then you'll start projecting that and grills will pick up on it.

>would it be weird to get her a gift or thank you card for all of the effort she put into talking to me and trying to help? Yes it would be. Don't do that.

i read a bit of everything, popular "classic" fiction (Portrait of the artist, madame bovary, to the lighthouse, etc.), popular nonfiction business and economics books, and some of the recently popular fiction novels (the martian, ASOIAF)
i don't know what to say. she invites me to lunch and i sit there with other coworkers and don't say a thing unless she initiates and asks me a question
i'm not skinny, but i haven't cut yet either so i have a relatively high bf% pic are my stats, i only do light-weight squat and deadlift because i don't want to snap my knees or back
>what are your ambitions/goals in life? i don't really have any. i'd like more money to live more comfortably
>If you have ambitions, youre well rounded i don't really have these
i do agree, but she did get me a card for christmas though. if i got her something, would it be like a going away card/gift?

well thats you're fucking problem. If you were a qt3.14 girl with hopes and dreams would you wanna be with someone like you?
Fucking work on that shit, not for girls but for yourself man.
Also i dont know your stats based on that shit you posted you autist. But by what you're saying you probably dont even look Veeky Forums. if you think your BF% is relatively high, its probably even higher than you think. You sound weak in general; lift with purpose. Dont do things half assed.
Being Veeky Forums is only a part of it tho. Seriously, if you ever wanna be happy you gotta work on yourself

im in your shy boat too, but I have a plan. I'm just gonna say whatever's on my mind. you want to get to know her right? then ask her questions. it doesnt have to be sexual. just say some dumb shit like her food looks appetising or some shit .but dont be autistic and spit out questions rapid fire.
let there be a silence and if she's interested, she'll talk back. if she's not, then you know to drop her as a friend and/or potential soulmate fampai
James Smith
Very similar to what I was in. The FORD method worked when I couldn't keep the convo going with random shit to talk about. Just bring up something about yourself or ask her about:

Dominic Richardson
I didn't read what people answered so I don't know if someone already told you that. Just be nice, tell her that you admired her kindness, you appreciated the time with her and that if she needs anything you will be here for her. This is the best you can do, if you try anything on her this will destroy the small making of friendship you've had around the time you worked together. You have to clue on how to get her in your life, and nor do I. The best you can do is to promise to be more than a coworker, and see if she's willing to do anything with you. If not, keep on being awesome and work on anything you don't like in your life. Girl like this will come to you if you harvest your passions and do something out of your life (which is the whole point of Veeky Forums in a way). A beta asking her out because she was gentle enough to invite you during friendly lunch, that's not something to go out with. But a nice dude making his life, having serious life goals and passionate about music, art or anything of the sort. That's cool. If you're really as ugly as you say, having a charming attitude and a proper life is the only way and I don't believe you have enough dedication to achieve it, but anyway
Matthew Martin
also if you can't chat, don't bother. Don't be awkward that's all, if you feel like you can't talk properly with her, try your skills with other people, chat with people in random places, flirt with some ugly woman just for the sake of practicing. I don't know how y'all can't even do the most basic thing in society, talk
Brandon Adams
Listen to what other people enjoy or commonly discuss, then go learn more about it so you can converse with them if it comes up in conversation later. You're only fucked if they just gossip on other friends. It's hard to enter a group like that. Otherwise you can ask them questions on the context of their discussion, let them talk to you(including you into the group slowly). Again, listen to them and contribute your knowledge or something witty. As long as you aren't diagnosed autistic then it's easy.
Logan Jones

He's trying to be more social, you idiot. Popular genre fiction isn't going to make him lose brain gainz from literature, and it'll give him something to talk about with people.

Asher Martinez
Could you recommend a good math book? Most are for people struggling with math at my Barnes and Noble. Something other than another biography on Euler, or Gauss, or the literal Disney movie live of Ramanujan
Jordan Collins
What are you talking about? It's proper etiquette to gift someone that has been working with you for a longer time when they decide to leave. Usually you do it all together with your other work mates.
Jackson Diaz
idunno, japanese girls don't have the ruthless female status-driven mentality of other asians. probably because they've been here longer or something.
this is why i laugh when people want a "muh feminine, caring, monogamous, trustworthy asian gf" because that simply doesn't happen. they stay with you as long as you don't turn to shit or have good life prospects.
Ethan Ortiz

Asher Morris
Just tell her you have autism and would like to thank her for showing you kindness and that you apologize for not talking much but your autism seriously effects your social skills.
Then tell her you know you aren't the most social person but you would like to continue to hang out after she leaves.
If she says no say "is it because of my autism?" and she will then pity fuck you.
Ryder Ramirez
Shit. I could have used this so many times.

Buy yourself a coffee or something when you are having an off-day and get her one too as a thank-you and rationalize that you are probably difficult to work with as a returning the favor.
Angel Hernandez
what if the favor i want is her giving me the succ? will a coffee be enough?
Juan Richardson
Yes. And if it isn't you can force her to do it. It's the law since you were nice to her.
Benjamin Sanchez
No, but it's a harmless start of returning the favor. You lose a couple bucks, but in the future she might bring you coffee too when you look down.
Levi Lewis
Oh she's quitting. Yeah no drink up and then blurt out your insecurities to her and tell her to fuck off or make a man of you

Why is everyone advising not to give her a gift? First of it is common practice and second of all women love gifts. If you value her a lot and would like to show it that way, then do it. There is nothing creepy about it. That being said don't get her any jewelry. That is pretty much reserved for couples.
Not Veeky Forums related though you fucking sad cunt.

honestly this is the average sort of girl i wish i had been having one night stands with in college
nothing really noteworthy about her but it would be a good night of feeling like you're normal. i'd almost rather bang her than someone objectively prettier because at that point you're like "ok you're banging me but you're out of my league, what's your angle"
with this girl you're like "ok shes just horny like me, we're both average. cool"
