Leave her alone. If you’re so unfamiliar with this person that you’re asking strangers on the internet for “gift” ideas to help with “a rough time” just stop. Whole thing is screaming immensely inappropriate.
Jeez. No need to get an attitude about it. I’m a very socially anxious and awkward person. I care very deeply about the person in the OP…more than most other humans on the freaking planet. We spend every day together at work and I love talking to her. I would do almost anything for her.
Just because I’m not great at knowing how to be there for people doesn’t mean that I’m an asshole.
I’m not good with other people and I never have been. That’s why I’ve been a loner all my life. I’m afraid to even freaking compliment people. But it doesn’t mean that I don’t want to be there for people and that I don’t care for them. I just need help figuring out how to do that.
I made the question in the first place because I used to bring in treats like donuts whenever I noticed someone was a bit down at work. It’s a small gesture and it doesn’t single anyone out or make them uncomfortable. No one knew who I may or may not be bringing it treats for. But I had to stop all of that when the issues with diabetes happened and I’ve been at a loss for what to do since.
I’m sorry that I’m not good with people. I never claimed to be. Not all of us are a socially adept as you and it doesn’t mean that we don’t care about others.
I probably won’t end up doing anything anyway out of fear of making her uncomfortable if that makes you feel better. Fine, I guess I really am an asshole. Is that what you wanted to hear?

Based on that wall of text imma double down on “leave her alone.”
