she wouldn't have voluntarily emailed you if she didn't at least think you were cute ish (women don't voluntarily talk to men they think are ugly, they simply ignore them)

there's a couple routes you could pursue: do you think you have a chance, do you like her at all? is she attractive? send an email saying you'd be happy to help review more concepts in the future, or maybe help tutor or something over the break/next semester. say she was a good student. this is testing the waters and can be interrpreted innocently, so this is what I'd do.

alternatively, if you don't like her, just ignore.

remember, so long as her major is out of department you should be good. women get involved with academics above them very often (power dynamic attracts them), but this only works if youre not a social autist or can play the subtle game well. good luck, I wouldn't just let it slide if I were you, it's definitely a positive sign she's at least open to something further, maybe in a test the waters sort of way

You don't seem to get the point. Ok, let me put it the other way. If you're being spiteful to everyone, you're spiteful to no one. So no, calling everyone a nigger won't work either, because the word will lose its meaning/punch. I'll just get fired and that's about it.

>calling everyone a nigger won't work either, because the word will lose its meaning/punch
It won't actually because not everyone calls each other a nigger, just like not everyone tells each other to have a nice break all the time. Yeah okay my example was a little extreme but think of that message as just politeness. Words don't lose their meaning if you use them all the time necessarily, they just get less strong. This is why Europeans think we're all fake weirdos, but in reality, we're just being polite to each other by smiling and asking our each other's days are going. There's nothing wrong with that and it doesn't mean we're fake. It's just that what we see as politeness might be stronger in another culture. But politeness isn't meaningless, it's still something. On the flip side, I see lots of Europeans as weird, autists who seem like they're ready to punch me in the face for no reason. It goes both ways.

It is my professional opinion that the woman in this email is not implying any romantic interest at all. However, she obviously thinks of you as a positive part of her life and there is a strong possibility that she is not necessarily opposed to the idea of romantic entanglement.

Her Mom told her to send "thank you" letters to people. Many girls do this, it's a weird cultural thing here in America.

There was literally nothing personal in the message, see how you blanked out her name and your name?

You could put any name in the "to" and any name in the "from" and nobody would ever know.

This is completely impersonal and she sent a thank you to every professor and TA she had/worked with.

Now that I've read the thread I realize my suspicious are correct and you're a sad, broken, autistic retard. It's unfortunate that once you leave academia that your autism will make you completely unemployable (they don't care how "smart" you are, 99.99% of an interview is "can I spend 8 hours with this guy/girl without wanting to blow my brains out" and 100% of the time with you autistic fags the answer is "no".
I've turned down plenty of 4.0's and high 3's and offered jobs to high 2's just because I can spend a day with them.

This is part of the reason why, and I can see it now... I hire some autistic fagbag and a week later need to mediate a sexual harassment case because the lady in HR smiled at him and sent a "personalized" welcome letter.

I lived with a flatmate who came to the US for stats PhD from Europe. We have very different standards on niceness and it can be hard to adjust.

If you ever don't understand why someone is being nice to you it's a good idea to just say "thank you". I'm generally a very giving person and it took a lot of time for him to realize I wasn't trying to set him up in some sort of social trap by trying to make sure he had food and giving him my spare cooking utensils.

This is how I know you have minimal romantic interaction with women. This isn't that. Just send her a "Thanks, being a TA was my pleasure, best of luck in the future" and move on

This, OP. I sent a personalized email to one of my T.A.s because they were particularly helpful whilst the other T.A.s in the course put in minimal effort for everything. You have never met her IRL, she has zero interest in you romantically, but evidently you did a commendable job as a T.A. Have some gratitude and mode on.

Fuck off back to your shithole country. You need to earn the trust of the people letting you in their fucking country, not the other way around.

Pretty sure she's just being polite. I don't see how you could ask her out over email without it being terribly awkward

You guys know that woman... are people... right?
A guy and a girl could send this email and there would be no difference. There's no flirting or anything. I sent this email to a TA this semester who helped us way more than was required of him - but if a girl sends it, it's flirting? lmfao you fucking autists all of you
