Chapters 14-21

Rob is trying to find out why they all left him or what went wrong. He gets some answers, one that was particularly important, I think, from Charlie. Rob always talks about how he is just an average guy and how he never understood why Charlie wanted to be with him in the first place. She was exotic and beautiful to him. But when he goes back to talk to Charlie she says that he had no self confidence, and he thought he was uglier than he was and that was why she left him for Marco. Marco was in a way more “glamorous” to her. All of the things that he talked about feeling when he was with her that were negative ended up causing her to leave. So, he does get the answers that he was looking for. I think that Rob is trying to learn from his mistakes; at least I hope that he is. I think it’s really interesting that went he saw Charlie again, the girl who ruined his life, he basically didn’t like her anymore. I think he even used the word hate. She wasn’t even with Marco anymore. I feel like Rob dwells on things way too long. He needs to be more positive and get over things faster. The dwelling caused him to drop out of college and I think caused him to have serious relationship issues from then on.
