Not him but I assume he's talking about the idea that a person must be fully independent to be a success. These people will brag about being single claim that they are fine without anybody to lean on. Of course these same people either engage in casual sex or frequent masturbation, both tools to trick the brain; if you orgasm your brain will think you found a mate. The problem is no man or woman is an island. We're primates and have an innate desire to interact with our fellow man, to understand them and be understood. But getting close to someone is sometimes painful, especially someone of the opposite sex, someone who can seem alien to the inexperienced. This causes the desire to be alone. The chronic pain of loneliness can be easily nulled by a quick orgasm or high. The acute pain caused by hurt from a loved one has to be ridden out. The chronic pain is an easy choice. If you're competent socially you won't even realize it's there until you're in your late 20s. If you're an autist you'll probably notice this chronic pain sometime around 4 am shitposting on /ck/ wearing marinara stained boxers.
