actually even though I know I am quite bad when it comes to interacting with the opposing sex, I still know that I am wayyyyy better (normal?) than this guy, and it feels great to know
I wonder how much of that is the result of being nervous. Yes, he's a tremendous dork, but it looks like he's not a shallow person. Give him another five years to finish growing up, and he could make better relationship material than the average more-balls-than-brains type. Maybe. With the right girl. Who likes Anime.
In five years he may well have transferred his affections from anime to real girls. Poor sod, anime don't bite.
I just think he's pitching his net in wrong waters. Nothing really wrong with who he is or his preferred profile for women.
I've met people like this before. In fact I work with one... They really are a strange bunch, no doubt. He just needs to get out and socialize more, a lot more... But then again, I have seen these odd couples that are just like this, but in a relationship too. (working retail you see lots of oddities)
5 words... "Extremly cute alien girl friend" What a guy, he really needs to get laid... but then don't we all

Maybe these two should get together - the kids would probably come out as happy mediums, you know, halfway between dork & scum.
