Spoilt white guys don’t get second chances.

Do you understand that this can be considered racist? Hint: it's in the bit where you make someone's race relevant to how you treat them.
This is exactly what I mean about how easy it is to make mistakes. We're all human. It happens.

Last I checked, white guys didn’t have a complete monopoly on being spoiled or terrible at dating. Met plenty who weren’t either. I don’t think being white impacts Clinton’s second-chanceability.
But I digress.
There is no question here about whether or not he is being horrid. He totally is. However—aside from his beginnings—Clinton has been portrayed as a relatable (even likable) character with flaws when it comes to being attracted to other people. I would be surprised if he and Elliott hook up right now. They both have some growing up to do and they would both be better off with someone who has more experience (or a different personality), but it feels like this could be a major character development story for Clinton. He messed up, and he’ll probably know (or learn) this as soon as he sobers up.
MrNumbers:
Clinton's going to feel like absolute shit when what just happened is explained to him, and it's going to be because he feels like an asshole and not because he's going to be seen as an asshole.
You have to make mistakes to learn from them, and it just sucks that almost every mistake involves hurting other people when it comes to social and romantic stuff.

I agree that nobody likes spoilt brats. The rest of this post just makes me think you are one. But yeah, well, that's just like... my opinion, man.
And that's all I'm going to say about that.

No, I’d say you were bang on the money. I don’t think I deserve second chances either. I’m definitely a spoilt white guy, so I’ll call that out when I see it.
You get one chance to be a decent human being. I wasted mine, Clinton has wasted his. There is no coming back from that. Other people might forgive you for their own mental health, but you should *never* forget or forgive yourself.
