A well meaning kid, socially awkward or entirely inept, but still tries his best to be a nice and caring person. Has difficulty making
friends but has a small personal circle of people that are
cool with him, but he's a lot more charismatic online. Handsome, but his outward demeanor or certain aspects of his appearance like weight and style make it harder to get girls. Potentially clingy, obsessive even, as a result from social isolation, but is open to change, and has good neuroplasticity. Superficially intelligent, knows a lot of obscure references and facts like any
geek, but also well read and has good spatial intelligence and high IQ like a true nerd. Has peculiar interests and hobbies, eccentric,
maybe a bit foofy from
time to
time, and finds it
hard to relate to other people, but is easy to talk to once conversation gets going well. Flirtatious and romantic, but lacks confidence and fumbles talking to girls. Overall, rough around the edges, but once you get to know him he's a good
guy, just lonely.
Classmate 1, quietly: James, he's kinda
weird isn't he?
Classmate 2, quietly: Yeah, but he's not so bad, kinda wonky sometimes but he's a good
guy. He's misunderstood,
give him a chance.
