How do I get social skills ASAP?
Will probably fail at dates, interviews, etc. How would I even hold a conversation with a girl like pic related and make her interested in me (I'm a khv, but assuming I ever go on a date)
You build social skills over years of going out into different situations and socializing. If you've been in your moms basement all these years you are fucked. Just keep practicing.

You'll never go from boomer virgin to getting with girls like that, best you can hope for is a painfully average one to settle for you

Improv classes is a massive jump in the deep end OP. I'm very impressed.
Most normies unironically would not do that. Dating can be stressful the first few times but it's really not that bad.
It's a essentially an interview and the man is the interviewer not the one on the spot. Keep her talking with good questions and it'll go very well.

>Alcohol not him, but alcohol does nothing to make me more social. I'm just slurring and becoming less and less aware of my surroundings

>zero social skills >32 year old khv >How do I get social skills ASAP? >hold a conversation with a girl like pic related and make her interested in me
this is a joke, right?
Luis Lopez
Tried it. Slight improvement, but I'm still aware of my lack of social skills. I just stand there like usual, kicking myself for not saying anything. Except smiling is a little easier
Stop giving bad advice lol. Drugs only help you if you have an underlying personality to begin with. If you don't, you just have to spend more time interacting with people.
Nolan Myers
>take improv classes at the suggestion of Jow Forums why would you put yourself through that? just lift and train a martial art. knowing you could kill everyone in the room with your bare hands is a great confidence booster and you'll just stop caring what to say
Josiah Murphy
>rarely do I speak more than 5 words in a row, or have conversations that last more than 30 seconds You'd be good at taking depositions. Your lawyer would love you.
Jonathan Young
Are you trying to build social skills by posting this sobby story ever day?
Julian Smith
ok buddy, if this really isn't bait then let me ask you two things:
1. if you're a 32 yo khv with zero social skills, how do you expect to "get social skills ASAP" and get "girl like pic related" interested in you?
2. ...why do you care? surely you have something more interesting to occupy yourself with rather than being a failure at social life?
Dominic Lewis
>don’t practice social interaction, do this unrelated task instead.
No way dude improv is very hard and you made huge progress by jumping in. Try and make friends at the class and not worry about the improv itself. Ask people about themselves. There’s usually cute girls in class
Bentley Murphy
Thanks I've read the book before I'd fail at sales though... I have a f/t job too
How do I start caring about the lives of other people? I'm starting to think I don't make new friends because I don't give a fuck about their lives and stroies.
Adrian Smith
Looking for more suggestions of things to do
1. I don't know what to expect, which is why I'm asking. but I'm sure there are lots of people on Jow Forums who need social skills too
2. This is something I'd like to get better at. To help in many aspects of my life. Social life, romantically, career, etc.
Just lie When I was a little kid people thought I was creepy cause I had a bunch of weird mannerisms. I wouldn't move my arms when I walked. I talked to myself (one half of a full conversation). I hated people so I was antisocial. Would actively depart social groups bigger than one other person. When people spoke to me I would stare at them for a long time after they finished speaking before giving a reply in as few words as possible. The list goes on. All I cared about was hating people harder, being left alone, and reading all the books I could find.
Despite all that a few people went out of their way to befriend me and that led me to realizing (A) how weird I actually was and (B) that deep down I couldn't be different. This realization coincided with a Christmas play put on by the school where I did so well that people's parents came up and actively congratulated me. Like, over their own kids. That's when I realized that I could just act all the time. People would leave me the fuck alone about being weird, I could still have access to the benefits of social circles (pussy), and not have to deal with whatever internal issues caused me to not be normal.
Act user Lie to them It's scary (and liberating) when you realize they can't tell the difference. They don't know you, so as long as whoever you pretend to be is somewhat plausible they will give you a pass. >protip -- keep your various social circles separate (don't let friends of group A meet friends from group B) and you'll never have to even explain yourself

wew, welcome to the club. and that's the actual problem, you can 't fake interest for too long, so find more interesting people maybe? i don't give a fuck either.

It doesn't even have to do that directly. Just take a swig and use that as an excuse to say stupid shit to a chick that you wouldn't normally. If she is repulsed, blame it on alcohol.
Carter Baker
What happened to phenibut? Do people still do that shit?

Why do you have all these pictures of asian girls? Yellow fever may be part of your problem and is usually a sign of a loser.

You keep going to class. They have skills and if you watch them act you can learn from them
Michael Powell
OP, I'm not trying to be mean here but I think you're autistic.
Evan Powell
How autistic are you? Pro-tip 1: NEVER start a conversation with someone you don't know by bringing up a controversial subject. Mein Kampf was the top uncomfortable subject you could bring up. Pro-tip 2: NEVER bring up politics, religion or previous relationships with someone you don't know
Dylan Morales
Shit. I wasn't there and I'm uncomfortable af
Juan Wilson

Bentley Turner
Hell, the joke could even be salvagable if you make Mein Kampf the punchline rather than just shouting it.
>I think my brother is trying to join the Boy Scouts >He did have Mein Kampf on his bookshelf, after all It wouldn't be a good joke, but it'd be a joke
Lincoln Moore
You know what certainly will help you OP? Continue to post your blogging shit with unattainable women several times a week. For how long have you been doing this now? At least 6 months.
Every fucking time you are just a whining little bitch. Zero improvement. You don't listen to our advice. Since you're asian, look up monasteries in Toronto and become a Bhuddist or Taoist monk.
Seriously, just give up. You are clearly not meant to succeed.
whats it like to put your penis in and out of a girl of asian origin?
Chase Phillips
Phenibut, 1.5g only once a week Yeah, its been pretty good to me have been making social gains when I'm not on it by memorizing my mindset and thought patterns while under its effects. Just don't abuse it and taper off of it gradually when you want to take a break
thats why it works (at least for most people). I normally feel pretty over stimulated in social situations but whenever i'm at a party or some shit and i'm drunk i suddenly stop giving a fuck about what people are doing around me and i can engage in a decent conversation.
Noah Evans
try therapy, at least you can talk to someone who won't judge you. and you'll get used to talking and opening up to someone
Andrew Nelson
should i drink my parents alcohol? kinda want to see how it makes me act
Jesus user, its not even that the subject is cringe, you're just not funny.
Bookshelves: Why do we even have them anymore? Most people don't read anything past high school. Kids these days get all their info from facebook where they cater to their 5 second attention spans. I mean you can try talking to a young person, and if you speak more than 3 sentences, they're checking their phone to see if the Warriors won, or they got a popup saying Trump said something offensive again. No wonder they're falling behind in life.
Now that clearly isn't 2 minutes worth, but that's all I'm gonna bother to type

learn that all your social anxieties are all in your fucking head no matter how real they seem.
the fear/anxiety people felt at Auschwitz or the dread a meek pedophile feels in an american prison makes your problems a luxury
Kevin Gonzalez
No matter how much I drink there's always a small voice of doubt in my head, like a part of my brain that's sober and tells me i don't got the balls for this and that. >tfw cucked by brain
most humor goes over people's heads. accept that most americans check their facebook, watch shit on the YouTube front pages, text in the group chat, binge Netfix, then go to bed.
they don't know about van gogh cutting his ear off. they've never thought about the butterfly effect. and they won't laugh at your subtle irony.
Nathan Hill
right off the bat homie. why do you have all these pics of girls stored on your computer? imagine everyone of them taking a huge, liquidy shit. imagine their make-up free faces wincing with pain. now imagine all the toiler paper. the endless wiping with no bidets since they're fucking some guy in LA. now delete the photos and get some certifications since i assume you work.
