Sup, /adv/, so finally decided to make a move on the frontdesk girl so hear me out and tell me if it's ok

For those of you who advise against work relationships, I've got a 9-6 with 2 hours commute, i barely have time in the morning for breakfast and when i get home for dinner, let alone meet females, so beat it

So there's a lot people walking by her desk and most never say hello, so if i go everyday by her desk and say "hello" not too loud but a bit more affectional, maybe it's a starting point, she'll remember me and build some rapport.

Tough part is how do i do once i decide to move past hello, or when do i move past hello.

Ever since the scamdemic I've stopped telling the truth and started lying to everybody. It became clear that people don't want to hear the truth or anything negative for that matter. They only want to hear positive shit and things that reinforce their beliefs. So now I'm constantly lying to these idiots.
Just today I went to the gym and this twink zoomer I barely know started making small talk. Anyway he was doing most of the talking when he mentioned he has a crush on one of the gym thots and that she is way out of his league so he is afraid to approach her because he is kinda ugly and all that. Anyway I straight up told him he is good looking and he should definitely make a move on her and that his chances are pretty good, even though he is an ugly twink manlet and basically has no chance. The way he looked at me with those puppy eyes when I told him he is good looking kek. Towards the end of the conversation I was thinking about coming clean and telling him that I was joking earlier and that he is physically deformed and ugly, has no chance and will probably die a virgin like so many incels nowadays. Could have probably driven him to suicide easily but I just kept my mouth shut and he eventually went away, which I was glad.
I just pray he approaches the girl when I'm there so I can laugh at him as he inevitably gets rejected and btfo.

If that's your only form of relief...

Do like a week or two of acknowledging her with simple greetings. Wear a smile, don't try to look serious or disinterested. Ask her a question about something at work to get her talking a bit, introduce yourself, ask for her name. Once you know each others' names - say, "Morning, [front-desk girl name]. How are you?" It's a bit more personal. If she remembers your name / gives you a real response, that indicates that she's not a complete husk of a person. It doesn't mean anything other than that. What you have to understand is that most women are emotionally intelligent enough to at least feign kindness to make their lives easier. Strange men can be intimidating. Just play it cool, smile, and don't be overbearing or pushy. If you catch her in a good mood, ask her out for coffee/lunch. If she says anything other than, "yes," she's not interested. In that case, take the rejection with grace and be on your way. Good luck.

Yeah I remember your post, I also was the one advising against work relationships. The question is why did you ask for advice on this issue if you're not willing to listen to the advice being given? I'm not saying that was a bad thing. But if you were going to do it anyways, why ask here for validation? It was what you wanted to do in the first place, so you would do it anyways.

Lol, this is sort of something a teen at school would do when they see their crush. Like making schemes and plots to catch a glimpse of them for one second, or orchestrating fake scenarios of interaction in their heads with their crush, or confiding to their friends, "Oh look, she looked at me for three whole milliseconds, wow!"
That's cute in a way, may your heart stay innocent and pure.

Anyways, regarding your endeavours with this girl, good luck and I hope it works out for you.
