former 

He comes across as a weak, insignificant figure in most social settings, someone others barely take seriously. He spends his time as a band kid, hiding behind the group identity to feel a sense of belonging, yet he lacks the confidence to stand out on his own. Despite having no real-world intimacy or courage, he boasts about having virtual sexual experiences with women online, which only highlights how disconnected and unsatisfying his reality is compared to the image he tries to project.

Adding to this contradiction, he often mocks and ridicules others, as if tearing people down could make up for his own frailty. In truth, his mockery is hollow; it exposes insecurity rather than strength. At his core, he is someone who doesn’t mean much, defined more by empty gestures and online performances than by genuine presence, achievement, or confidence in himself.

Former had e-sex with a girl named smart.
