>>56023345David is a bit of a romantic.
Is true, his one liners has given him a few smacks across the face, but in reality he is putting up a MASSIVE front. In reality, he doesn't know how to speak with girls.
Sure, he may hold a conversion or two, but he never is the one starting it. He mainly bounces back whatever he is told so he doesn't look like an idiot.
But still, he is a dreamer at heart, and he hopes he someday gets to know what is to fall in love.
And he will, when he gets to Kalos and Alola. Kalos is for meeting his dream girl, and Alola when he matures about his feelings. The idea is that in Kalos he tries to defeat his fears (and succeeds half way), but in Alola he hooks up with a friend "with benefits": an Aether researcher. He considers "should I just stay with this gal who I just bang occasionally, or should I be more honest on how I feel, and tell the woman I truly love my feelings?". He mans up, and gets together with his dream girl.And yes, his dream girl is a Hex Maniac.
