All of us are socially inept at one time or another, so it's fair to give him the benefit of the doubt.

Intelligence and and education have nothing to do with social skills.

if this guy is socially inept, then why do you talk to him? Do you have to, as part of your job?

Everyone has their moments, this doesn't sound like a normal deal.

I dated one man who was socially dyslexic and it was frustrating.

He'd sometimes say the most inappropriate things, blurt out the first thing that came to his mind, thought he knew it all and was a self righteous hypocrite to the Nth power. I blame where he came from; they don't know what social skills are there. He didn't know any better. Still, they shouldn't have let him out into civilization.

I can't stand people like that.... It's product from the American overly drunk/drugged up culture.
