Dirk. I really think you should at least look at the data I have worked hard to gather for you. I believe some of these could be compatible platonically and romantically.
[ In some way, what Hal is saying is correct, and maybe that's why it is just rubbing salt into the wounds Dirk already inflicts upon himself. Yeah, he's not socially adapted enough to know how to simply get to know people. Yes, his relationship with Jake was a failure and he would like to be with somebody else. But who, really? He's hesitant to search so actively for something like that as well because, like Jake, he probably will ruin everything for that person too. After all, that's what his title does. A "Prince of Heart" is essentially a "destroyer of relationships." The more Dirk can grasp and accept this part about his personality, the easier his life may be. Was he ready to try and date again?
The more Dirk thinks about it, the more he figures: well, the harm is already done. Might as well see what came out of it.
It takes him awhile to reply, awhile to get simmer his temper down. ]

Aren't you tired of being alone?
[ Just brushing right over that casual threat. ]

Fine.
Make it quick.
