Those of us who never got along well with others never developed the social skills and confidence to play “the game.” This leaves us gathering every shred of courage we can find to make an awkward, poorly-implemented advance only to be devastated when we get the inevitable rejection. That’s why a lot of us say “screw it” and turn to other things.
Speaking for myself, pushing 40 it’s not a great place to be, socially speaking. Will I put in the work to get over it? Will I succeed?
