if you were like me you were too concerned with things that you enjoyed. perhaps you missed a critical part of life where you develop social skills on top of already being terrible at them?

It's not hard to get a gf, even as a massive nerd, speaking for personal experience
The trick is just to act way more confident than you are (at least for a short period of time) and of course you have to be at least a little bit attractive
Before meeting my gf I was a massive nerd, then I started acting cocky for a few months, got with her, then went back to normal
Now we've been together for more than three years and I still read philosophy and shitpost on 4chan

It's an ideologic, optimistic novel written by a poet. The themes and symbolisms are expressed with a heavy hand. You can get the same grand narrative in better prose with Tolstoy. If you want something around the same era, read Moscow to the end of the line.

I liked what Henry Miller said about this topic

A man, when he’s burning up with passion, wants to see things; he wants to see everything, even how they make water. And while it’s all very nice to know that a woman has a mind, literature coming from the cold corpse of a whore is the last thing to be served in bed.
