Hi 4chanAll my friends suck, well their not horrible, I just wish I had more options.In my first period there's some girl that I accidentally made very personal eye contact with, and then the next day we both were next to each other for this forced work thing on the board and we did it again, but this time she said "hi' and I said it back, it was really awkward and that's the only time we ever talked.The thing is, she understands more about the internet and 4Chan and is much more savvy in general and I wanna be friends with them.I'm very shy, like extremely. (you can tell because i'm posting this on 4chan)if you have any comments on this, please reply.
>>35012048they're*
>>35012048Break the ice and once the conversation really starts, bait her into talking about 4chan or whatever you assume her hobby to be.Pick a safe and lame normie option related to her hobby (so for 4chan go with 9gag, iFunny, etc), tell her you've been using it and its fun, then ask her if she knows meme sites too (you'll need to slowly guide the conversation)If shes attention starved, she'll sing, People love hearing themselves talkIf not its gonna get complicatedThat being said, if "hi" was the only thing you ever really said to each other, how do you know she uses 4chan? Does she openly talk about it?Lowkey a red flagGood luck
You just need a conversation starter. How do you know that she understands the internet? If you saw her do a specific thing you can use it as a conversation starter. Also if you have another class with her you can use it as a conversation starter. If the conversation goes well and you're at least slightly cute and attractive then you can directly say to her "I'm trying to make a friend this school year do you want to be friends?" and she'll see you as a cute autist trying to make a friend. But definitely don't do that if you are an overweight goblin lol. You need to signal to her *indirectly* that you're not interested in her romantically and you're harmless because that's the main thing she'll be worried about.
>>35013061forgot to add, I did this myself and it went better than you would expect in your dreams.
>>35012048The amount of progress I made might as well have been zero We had a different classroom in first period and she did sit next at the table next to mine but this is likely because they already sat there last time anyway, probably isn't related at all.I don't know if I can ever make progress with the very tiny windows I have to ever talk to them, let alone convey myself in a friendly or comfortable way, I caught them looking at me once (I think at least) in my peripheral vision but that's it, and for all I know she could be horrified of me, but it makes for a somewhat interesting thread!
>>35013645You could yolo it.Glance at her and make it obvious so she notices. Do it for a few days. Then add a smile. Eventually walk up and say hi. Good chance she'll think you want to be friends and accept your advance.Keep us updated.
>>35013682Interesting strategy, everyday is basically the same and it would be fun to yolo and break the matrix so i'm thinking about it.The only obvious thing is this is basically a 50/50 chance and depending on what other people say, or how I come off, it can very easy be suicide to my social status, and my social status already isn't amazing (But not so bad to the point where everyone thinks bad of me)Only bad news is personally, its now the weekend meaning I will have no more news on this until Monday (in which ill most definitely do something to keep this thread up) but this thread may just get achieved in the span of two days sadly, but i'd likely make a new one on adv anyway if that did happenNonetheless i'll keep making updates when I canevery little comment and affirmation does help me alot, im very shy and introverted so it's gonna be hard, but i'll get through it.
>>35013682Okay wait, now that I think about this, it doesn't sound nearly as bad as I thought, I just overexaggerated it heavily in my head.That's a good idea.
>>35013061With some practice beforehand, I can see this working.I am HORRIBLE at conversations, but i'm sure if I practice with other people outside of school first, it is very doable.
>>35012181i'm going to be honest, she is actually a red flag.She is a twitter user (I eavesdropped once) and the debating kind as well. I'm not trying to say "I Can fix her" we all know how that goes.In my highschool every girl is either pretty with no soul or personality and mentally behind, or emo/dyed hair and questionable but has a soul and personality, and I would prefer the personality with some odd qualities. Also, she isn't that bad, I mean what's the worst that can happen? i have known this person since 7th grade and they are generally kind and caring so I think it's okay, Beggars can't be choosers.
>>35013845If you go with my yolo strat, approach her the as if you'd approach to make a confession: with as little people around as possible, gotta minimize the pressure and angst. (Wait till she leaves for lunch and by coincidence walk besides her or idk) The other guy is right, act shy and slightly autistic. Worst case she rejects you mildly.You dont happen to have a network, right? Didnt pay attention, sorry. If you do you could rope her in that way. Connect with her friends first and slowly ease yourself into the circle. Or find out her socials and chat her up.Im getting curious, cant wait for your next update. Good luck out there.
>>35013845Twitter is ew but i guess depends on how she uses it.Once you are friends, you could try to act a bit boring and feel her out. Before you all in on the friendship. I wouldnt wanna have a luny as friend and neither do you.Good luck.
>>35013816>Only bad news is personally, its now the weekend meaning I will have no more news on this until Mondaylol there were slightly over 4 years inbetween me seeing the girl I was reffering to in >>35013061 for the first time, and talking to her for the first time. And over 2 months between when I decided on talking to her and then actually doing it, trust me do not rush it>>35013845>i have known this person since 7th gradesimilar situation to me, I said to her what classes I had with her before since I knew she didn't remember. You can also say something like "it's weird that I've known you for X years but haven't talked to you before" I guess>>35013682I don't understand normal people stuff and NEVER look at people or make facial expressions to people (neurodivergent) so I'm not an expert on this but I feel like it's a bad idea---also make sure to be effay when doing it! (picrel)
>>35013887One last note I will state is I do not have her socials, and I could try and Opsec them through her known Spotify and other means and stuff, but unless she gives them, it will be extremely odd for me to appear to her online sadly as we have zero natural online social bridges.I can't wait for my next update either.I'll keep you posted!
>>35013903That's good advice
>>35013887absolutely DO NOT let it have the vibes of a confession. Yes on "accidentally" (wink wink) running into her when there's nobody around (what I did)>>35013903adding on to this, dressing with a gold button blazer and a tie when everyone else around you is dressed like a subhuman really helps with being able to do whatever you want and people not questioning it since you look like a businessman
>>35013903On a much more personal, but important topic, I had recently been dealing with severe depression, it's recently been much better and i'm transitioning from that person I was but I'm not completely out of it yet.Because of certain events I have been in poor condition, and all I really wear is black and a hat because i'm self conscious about my hair, my hair is good, thick and blonde, it's just not in the right style.I recently bought "Conventional White Guy Clothes" from Fred Myer, I just have really poor morning habits and haven't taken an initiative, it's also scary to change from a style your known by to the complete opposite side of the spectrum.I have the potential, and I do think of myself as conventionally attractive, I've just fucked up my body and stuff with the years in which I didn't have the energy to care.If I want a good shot, not just with this person, but with others too, it might be a good idea to changes these things first.This is partially why my fav waifu is Lain Iwakura
>>35012048I'm getting ALOT of mixed adviceBut I think that makes sense as it's really complicated with different types of people and different experiences.i'm just going to see everyone's advice and make my own judgement on what should I do based on the situation.I value all advice highly though, and I'll make sure I TRY something on either Monday or Tuesday (Hopefully Monday though)I'll likely also buy a 4Chan Pass so I don't have to do the captcha's each time.
>>35013932>>35013943chill with the reddit spacing, where did that come out from?>I had recently been dealing with severe depressionmake sure you get it solved and she doesn't know that you had it, good people don't want anything to do with a random already ill person coming into their lives out of nowhere, although someone they already care for becoming ill is a separate topic>I recently bought "Conventional White Guy Clothes" from Fred MyerI don't know what you bought but I presume you don't look effay with clothes you bought from a place that also sells "groceries, home goods, electronics, and pharmacy services">I just have really poor morning habitsbrush and floss (people who don't floss are subhuman). If your teeth are yellow then buy 10% carbamide peroxide to whiten them, they will be better in 2 weeks and that time will give you time to think about what to say>make sure I TRY something on either Monday or Tuesday (Hopefully Monday though)probably don't do it so soon>>35013943>I'll likely also buy a 4Chan Passare you retarded?I always stop having to do the captcha (or they become super easy 1 picture ones) after a few posts, haven't you by now?
>>35013977>I always stop having to do the captcha (or they become super easy 1 picture ones) after a few posts, haven't you by now?For some reason, no, I guess Christopher Poole hates me, they are still super long and I normally have to do them 3 times, sometimes I get lucky though, but maybe I should just verify my email instead.>probably don't do it so soonYour probably right>brush and floss (people who don't floss are subhuman). If your teeth are yellow then buy 10% carbamide peroxide to whiten them, they will be better in 2 weeks and that time will give you time to think about what to sayYeah, people who don't floss after brushing are weird, How can you live with all the food and your teeth? flossing feels so good
>>35013977Also, you'd be extremely surprised at what is sold there in terms of clothes, in the city I was taking my road trip to (Olympia) the amount of clothes there is insane, it's like a mini mall.(I failed the captcha 5 times trying to post this)Maybe the reason It isn't getting easier is due to how often I fail it
>>35013995come up with the outfit that you're going to wear the day you do it and post the outfit>(I failed the captcha 5 times trying to post this)how? are you on a shitty phone or smth?>Maybe the reason It isn't getting easier is due to how often I fail ityes
>>35014004I think i'm just mentally behind
>>35014006But I did post this first try, maybe I can do this one
Well it's late, I had a good day today with my aunt watching Gravity Falls and stuff.thanks /adv/ for your wonderful words and advice to me.I think for the sake of Making School Friends I should first try to clean up physically and mentally abit more, and find people to talk to, then talk to that cool girl from class, even if this thread is archived too soon for me, I'll make a new one called "Making School Friends Part II" but I'll only create it when major updates are out, and if I don't feel a need for support or things become boring but stable then I'll quitI'm still really Naive and young in highschool, and I have alot to do.Goodnight to the Anon's on adv!
>>35013645>>35012048You just gotta run up to her during lunch break and start violently fisting her anus.
