There are probably more people out there then we care to admit that have experiences like this guy seemed to. I know i did growing up.
When i was going through school (be it junior high, high school, and college/univeristy), i was always decent looking, talented at anything i tried to do (be it sports or academics), i was a little soft-spoken and shy, but i wasn't an introvert. I was sociable, and very popular with most guys but for whatever reason the women wanted NOTHING to do with me. I just could not relate to them for some reason.
I found this incredibly frustrating, and eventually gave up on trying to impress women or even to ask them out.
I know my parents feared i was gay, but i just was SO frustrated at my attempts to find someone, that i just gave up rather then get to the point that this guy obviously was at. (I could definitely have seen myself getting there.)
Eventually i started travelling outside of the area that i grew up in, and i learned that it was all really something about that particular area. I'm Canadian, and i found that when i travelled to the USA suddenly i was a womanizing machine! The ladies just couldn't keep their hands off of me.
I came to the conclusion that it was a societal thing. I just didn't jive with what southern canadian girls were looking for, apparently.
I wonder if maybe, had this guy packed up shop and moved some place else, he would have found something similar?
Course he also appeared to have deeper issues then just that.. His commentaries on his brother and father suggest something more then just "I can't get a date. Women must die."
