@Peregrina I can certainly relate to what u say. I think I could relate to the awkward people more when I was younger as I was very awkward nd very insecure myself.

@HerbiMetal I think what you said could be part of the reason I became so emotionally attached to Scott Malkinson to begin with. I saw a genuinely nice person with nerdy tendencies who was constantly being ostracized and bullied for things that were beyond his control, so naturally that made him seem relatable to me and want to root for him. I think I subconsciously began to project some of my own traits onto Scott however and forgot he was still his own person with a different personality from mine and separate issues of his own. I think this was most evident when I created my past headcanons of him, which was pretty much me projecting my own personality, likes, and dislikes onto his rather than taking into account the person he truly is- a sensitive, misunderstood boy with diabetes who loves Star Wars and board gaming. I kept forgetting to remember that Scott wasn’t my OC character Hannah Bergman, although I now distinguished Hannah enough and realized she is truly more a reflection of the real me personality-wise if anything. Physically, she isn’t identical to Scott either, considering that beyond the fact that she is obviously female, Hannah’s hair is more of a chestnut shade, which is a medium hue that is a mixture of red and brown, rather than Scott’s darker brown hair color.

@Peregrina I thought Scott was uncool in Elementary School Musical but I also felt the negative treatment of him was uncalled for. I liked him so much in Basic Cable.

@Peregrina I can see how u feel for Scott so much. If only he had a friend like u. It reminds me when I was growing up I tended to befriend people who were also outcasts, I could relate to them and I wanted them to feel less alone. I didn't understand why people didn't like them.

@HerbiMetal although I personally couldn’t see myself dating someone who acted like him, since I feel I need someone compassionate like he is, but a little stronger and more self-assured to balance out my own insecurities, I could definitively see myself being Scott’s friend. I think he is one of the nicer characters in the show and tend to want to support and help people like him feel less alone. I think he and I could help and really benefit each other on a platonic level, but we both need stronger counterparts in a romantic relationship to keep us grounded in order for our love lives to work out. Although our hobbies are a little different, a lot of my insecurities and bad habits are also Scott’s too, which is why I probably scored so highly for him in SpAndMe, so that’s not necessarily a good thing. Like I said in a different thread, I think Nichole could be the best match for a friend for me, since she is kind and understanding, but also self-assured and balanced. I could even be good friends with Stan since he doesn’t seem like a stereotypical type of jock and is relatively calm and empathetic.

@Peregrina I agree I feel u. As a friend is good. If he were my friend I might be more like a counselor to him but he may have some strengths that surface that make a more balanced friendship.

Heck yeah I'd love to be Stan's friend he can be assertive but he is also sensitive and emotional like me!

@HerbiMetal it’s funny, because you are just about the third person who has said Scott and I would be great as best friends 😂 I wouldn’t mind being his best friend though and do think he is a nice person. I don’t think he is as mentally weak as Butters can be sometimes either and is stronger than him in some ways, which I think becomes evident in Basic Cable.

But in tfbw clyde is voice by trey

@Peregrina That's cool he's mentally stronger than Butters I never thought of that
