Why do you think Elliot Rodger never got a girl?

[daniel7]

I mean despite his twisted mind, why do you think he never got a girl? he wasn't ugly, he had money, he was popular because he was son of a Hollywood director, according to his videos he was also a gentlemen.

I have to say that many answers are kind of deflected, 1° nobody knew he was a phsyco otherwise the murdering wouldn't have happened. 2°even If he was arrogant and whatever, belive me I have seen hundreds of girls dating assholes with capital A.

[bunnyy]

He was stuck up and negative and literally insane, He got everything he wanted and was rich brat who though he was god's gift to women. His parents got him mental health help and he refused it and lashed out. It would be like a girl coming up to you and saying " Hi I am perfect and you should automatically adore me! I won't do a thing for you and will mistreat you and also I think of you as waaaay lower than me but you should still like me because I am rich and conventionally attractive. Also if you don't do what I want constantly I will throw fits and probably also hurt you because I have major anger and entitlement issues and refuse to get help :) wanna worship me? ... I mean date me? DID I MENTION I AM PERFECT AND BETTER THAN YOU WILL EVER BE? you better love me or I will fucking kill you!" The guy was a mess and he had all the help in the world but he was so full of hate and so self entitled he thought he deserved women to fall at his feet without putting fort any effort. He basically had the most repulsive personality type imaginable.

[diegoD]

I agree wit hsome of your statements and disagree with another, yeas he was a rich brat, but you are making it seem like he just did not get everything that he wanted, and snapped. It wasn't like that. He didn't just not get women. He didn't get anything for 8 years, I know this girl who was kind of desperate for a boyfriend, and she had been single for only a couple of months, can you think what it is 8 years? I of course think what he did was totally unnecessary. but it was not something that he decided to do overnight.

[Danielstairclimber]

you are missing the big issue here. He had aspergers syndrome. it was not that he automatically demanded girls, but more the lack of girls over many years drove him insane, but the reason for not having any girls it was his aspergers. if you have aspergers you dont understand any social concepts, like how to make freinds, how dating works , the fact that you have to approach girls

[been_waiting]

A GENTLEMAN? HE WAS A GENTLEMAN? HE MURDERED PEOPLE AND HATED WOMEN. He had a sick sense of entitlement and hated girls for not falling at his feet. What the fuck? If you're another Elliot Rodger supporter, please slap yourself right now.

See, guys think that if you have money and a good looking face you'll get girls no matter what. Clearly untrue, as demonstrated by Elliot Rodger. He had a shitty personality, he was creepy, and hateful, and a monster.

He was actually kind of attractive facially so it had nothing to do with looks.

[Account]

Well said.^

[daniel7]

yes, well said, but no-one knew that until he became a murderer.

[Red_Dragon]

I have a good looking face and no money and chicks dig me. I have a creepy personality too. Least I think so. Some might even consider me socially awkward and a monster yet I still get girls after me.

He just probably got butt hurt and never looked for the shallow chicks. He could have easily pulled some with that car he got, money, and the little celeb fame.

[been_waiting]

Asker, he acted like a creep. You can usually tell when there's something off about someone. Despite what some guys want to believe. He was fucked up already in the head. Women didn't make him like that.
@Red_Dragon you are nothing like elliot rodger I can guarantee that

[Red_Dragon]

Still there are women out there who will screw anybody so long that person has money. He had money.

[been_waiting]

@Red_Dragon some. But even prostitutes are wary of guys that act like him.

[Red_Dragon]

Maybe, but the point is he held his on self back. I believe the major reason as to why he was the way he was was because he couldn't get a girl. If a prostitute or a gold digging regular girl was willing to be with him (because of money) maybe he wouldn't have became what he became. However, he didn't take the initiative. I'm not saying he isn't a terrible person. The guy was a racist and a misogynist and a arrogant crazy dude, but I am saying he could have got away with getting with a chick if he would have put forth the effort.

[been_waiting]

@Red_Dragon he was mentally unstable. He would have snapped eventually, even if he got girls. It would be something else. An ordinary healthy minded person doesn't become a murderer over a lack of romance.

[Red_Dragon]

Hmmmmm. Good point. I agree there.

[Bluemax]

"He had a shitty personality, he was creepy, and hateful, and a monster."
(standing ovation) Bravo!

[been_waiting]

@Bluemax thanks lol

[diegoD]

@Account He wasn't a gentleman, he was : The supreme gentlemen " at least according to his retribution video.

[diegoD]

I dont defend elliot rodger, what he did was completely unnecessary, and in my opinion he gave up too soon. But you are highly ignorant. " he was a monster, hatefull" juging before the events of isla vista how do you know? He was extremely desperate, people who are extremely desperate sometimes for better or for worse do terrible / desperate things. besides as a child he was bullied, and he had Aspergers syndrome, which makes communication more difficult. He had never committed an atrocity before the day of retribution.

[diegoD]

how do you know are you a prostitute? , " he would have eventually snapped" man you seem to know everything. I dont even know the answer to the second statement myself.

[Danielstairclimber]

@Account anybody who can't have women for their entire life, and gets rubbed in his face the sight of lterally everyone else with a girl except you will hate women. Beleive me you would hate men if you could not have one year after year.

[SandPlanet]

No "gentleman"-like behavior in the world can ever cover up the level of bitter creepiness that was so obviously deeply rooted in Elliot Rogers. And if there's one thing all women (including these "gold-diggers" you guys love to mention so much) universally feel repulsed by in a man, it's creepiness.

[Bluemax]

And attempting to push girls off balconies is so "gentlemanly," isn't it?

[SandPlanet]

@Bluemax:
Totally. I always feel so flattered when a guy pushes me off a balcony.

[Bluemax]

(facepalm) And all this time I could've been pushing girls off balconies...

[SandPlanet]

Thanks for MHO.

[RationalMale]

From what I've read, he was just way too timid, and bought into the "men and women are the same" thing. He thought women would approach him, since equality.

he also just was too terrified to flirt/approach women. From all accounts, he basically was worse than the Indian guy on Big Bang Theory who had selective mutism. if you can't even strike up a conversation or hit on a girl... yeah, you're never gonna get a girlfriend.

[RationalMale]

Also, keep in mind the guy was a member on puahate. com. He not just refused to learn game so he could get a girl, he flat out opposed it. He despised those who decided "hey, given human psychology is not freakishly erratic, there must be some way of behavior and actions that would make it easier to find a girlfriend."

[Agrojag]

Honestly, when I saw him, I though the same thing. I'm glad I'm not the only one who wondered this. I mean, he had money, was handsome and lived in California. I was shocked someone like him couldn't find anyone. And I've known most women to date worse scumbags than him so it was pretty shocking to me.

[Danielstairclimber]

he had aspergers.

[Account]

He had an unpleasant personality, he was a narcissist and he thought he was entitled to have sex with women just because he had money. He viewed women as sex-machines and he blamed everyone else about everything going wrong in his life.

[been_waiting]

according to asker he was a gentleman.

[Account]

@been_waiting oh sorry, I guess that changes everything!
(not. :p)

[daniel7]

according to his videos.. duh ¬_¬ . Also you're speaking as if there were no women in this earth who fall for guys just like that. I also think many guys think like that.

[SandPlanet]

This right here.

[Account]

@daniel7 Of course there are idiotic women in the world. But the fact that none of them fell for Eliot gives me hope.

[WhiteSteve]

Probably because he was crazy. Not finding a girlfriend isn't what made him crazy. He was crazy anyway, and that was his trigger. I'm sure the girls he targeted in the past turned him down based on his personality a lot of times. He also seemed to resent that these girls weren't seeking HIM out. Dude was just nuts, and that's the end of the story. We shouldn't even be speaking his name and giving him any type of shine, honestly.

[harakiri]

he was probably socially awkward and didn't know how to navigate social situations. also, i think he was mentally ill and improperly treated.

[Bluemax]

"Probably?" I don't think there's any "probably" about it. He went beyond socially awkward.

[harakiri]

@Bluemax i didn't watch a lot of coverage on him, so i avoided making a definitive statement

[diegoD]

you are probably right about most of what you said, I think he had aspergers or autism, but even then I am still surprised, because as he complains in the video, he wasn't just rejected several times, it was 8 years. it was a long time. Maybe the isla vista women conspired against him lol

[kheserthorpe]

Because he tried to act like his idea of a British gentleman, which is not what california party girls are looking for.

[Bluemax]

Have you read his manifesto?

[Agrojag]

Haha! Maybe it's as simple as this.

[theperfectdater]

I smell conspiracy... Any fool with a BMW, a semi famous and socially relevant daddy, and a smidgen of confidence can pull a chick or two here and there.

[Red_Dragon]

Exactly. I think it's BS. He must just didn't want a chick.

[been_waiting]

Refer to my opinion.

Guys think money and a little recognition is all it takes to get women. But clearly, if you're socially awkward, entitled, withdrawn, and have the mind of a sociopathic killer, you're not gonna be the life of the party. Rich people can die alone too.

[theperfectdater]

Uh not really true. A certain type of woman who has become more prevalent in todays society could give a shit less about character. He just couldn't identify the 'status hoes' very well.

[Red_Dragon]

@been_waiting I'm not saying money and a little fame will get every woman. Hell I'm broke and unpopular as hell but chicks still want me. However, if you have money and some fame you can easily get shallow chicks. I can't get shallow chicks. Sure I don't want them, but he acted like no girls wanted him. The least he could get is the shallow ones.

[IHateBeingaMan]

cases like Elliot Rodger are a good example in which, a guy can be rich, wealthy, or just be decent looking, overall, his looks are not a problem at all, but if his social-skills are lacking, he lacks certain social behaviors, that guy will still struggle to get a girlfriend, get laid (the natural, normal way though)

[Bluemax]

"I mean despite his twisted mind," well, that's a HUGE thing to overlook now, isn't it. I believe his twisted mind is PRECISELY the reason he never found a woman to love him.

[front2back]

Because his dick required an electron microscope to see.

[been_waiting]

and girls knew this without seeing him naked?

[front2back]

@been_waiting because snapchat

[been_waiting]

u right. I'm sure it had nothing to do with his creepiness

[Anonymous]

he was arrogant
but not in the cocky way
his insecurities showed

it was all over his face
but you can see the evil intent on his face

HE IS ANGRY
with society and women
and truth is I do not blame him
for being angry with them
cause one day they will be dealt with

but that is on the most highs orders not ours

[RedThread]

He seemed like a whiny prick who took his frustrations out on other people. Most women I know can smell the stink of that shit a mile away.

[Bluemax]

Indeed!

[KillerZombieHunter]

Egoistical. May look like he got his cool in his videos but maybe has problems talking to girls. A little awkward here and there.

[daniel7]

maybe you're right.

[Anonymous]

What do you mean despite his twisted mind? His twisted mind was ALL of the problem.

[daniel7]

that is valid only if that was visible from the start, which I think wasn't because otherwise the murdering wouldn't have happened.

[Opinion Owner]

He had a long history of mental health issues. He was a warped kid for a long time. Was he born warped or did someone harm him in early childhood, I don't know... But he didn't kill because he didn't get girls in a legit way. Son of Sam killed because his neighbors dog told him to. Charlie Manson thought he was going to lead a race war and repopulate the earth. That kind of illness leads to an entirely false world with false logic.

[daniel7]

you're right maybe a nice elaborated humiliating prank would have ben enough to get his revenge, the killing was just awful and mad.

[Opinion Owner]

He didn't NEED revenge. He needed therapy or meds or some kind of intervention and his family had been trying to get him he'll for a while. He freaked people out and hated EVERYONE - half his writings are about hating rich people, not chicks. A guy driving a Beemer at his age complaining about rich folk? Crazy kid.

[Opinion Owner]

*get him help

[Cómoestás]

His personality sucked asshole. He would use women as sex machines. Really to top it off, he just wanted his dick wet (in pussy)

[daniel7]

that's called Men

[Cómoestás]

Well since he couldn't get his dick wet, he shot a bunch of people and then killed himself taking away young innocent lives that could inspire or change the world we live in forever. Now do you call that a man?

[moviedude714]

This question is another reminder of how I never liked and always will hate the Dynamics of dating and attraction

[Anonymous]

There's a couple guys on here who sound just like him.

[existing_not_living]

Maybe he was self-centered?

[Anonymous]

He was unattractive to the women he wanted.

[Bluemax]

Why do you think he was unattractive to the women he wanted?

[Opinion Owner]

I don't know. I say this because there's plenty of women who are dating , have dated, or will date guys with shitty personalities.

[Anonymous]

He was very proud and narcissistic
