Cobes' entire views on dating revolve around 80-90s romcoms.
Even though I don't think any of them involve losing one's virginity in a sped class bathroom.
Let us not forget Josh's innate delusions ...
He has, for years, because he can flex a muscle, thought that he was jacked/ripped/etc. On more than one occasion he has on video said something to the effect of "My huge muscles/I don't even work out/getting bigger". He's literally watching the A-Team thinking he's B.A. Baracus. He has never had a come-to-skygod quip on this. He's stopped bringing it but he does always try to talk tough a la "that guy's lucky in prison dude I was gonna kick his ass". We ALL know damn well Joshua Fay was shitting his pants in that situation.
His guitar/singing skills: in that second documentary "Now it's a Party" (I refer to this as the "boneless" documentary lol) he sang 2-3 songs and they were as expected, gutter-cat atrocious. When he was doing a react video, he had to skip/pause at that part of Elvis singing and Plain White T's (dewd) and said "I'll do these live...be...be..because of copyright" (or something similar). This tells us he watched it in advance (the boneless shitty party doc) and he heard something different in that session than when he did it live. Clearly lit in the documentary.
The way josh acts at the beginning , all calm and sorted, when those middle-aged cunts walk up--where he's lucid and not talkative and trying to end the moment--the guys that used to act like that typically grew out of it and ended up married/etc. Josh instead gets hammmmmmered at warp-speed and proceeds to hack "Hound Dog" so badly that people nearby probably caught stomach-cancer.
Now to dating. Josh hit a goldmine with Stephanie. She was still in her shell, super unsure of herself, and put out. Josh back then was relatively clean because of Wendy's job, so the chance of catching any crotch-crickets was rather low. Stephanie probably mentioned something about hygiene or maybe she got to miss that devolution . Who knows..? Either way, it was a confidence booster and confirmation-bias of his outer self image he larped as at the time.
Issue is, Josh pre-vagina contact would have married Stephanie and made enough wands to keep her and their cobra spawn in Air Jordans and a nice clocktower house. Josh, upon contacting a homely pussy, realized how wonderful poon is and that he needed to tag as much tang as possible. Josh decided to seek out more cock-sleeves and look where it got him.
His idea of romance is absolutely based on TV/movies. The tactical soap does NOT work (dewd!) and he's too PROUD to admit that. Josh needs to be humbled. I do not want anything to happen the little sport but at some point screeching "Ahm awwwtistic DUUUDE" is not going to stop a fist. He needs something to humble him externally like a smack or internally like a kidney failing. He won't suddenly get a 160 IQ but maybe he'll be more grounded in fact .
