I don't really know why that phrase hits home so hard in the case of Lucas Werner. I think it has something something to do with his intense belief that zoomer baes owe him sex combined with cycling through his time-tested playbook that has only worked on one woman. Like, it's the fact that he's incapable of changing himself or his approach of " $X steak dinner" approach.
On another note, wtf was wrong with Suzanne anyways? Was Lucas her version of a mommywife relationship? That one pic of her shaving him like a sped highlights the weird dynamic that was at play, and it's kinda amazing Lucas managed to fuck that up.
