Perhaps some part of them felt a connection on one level but they weren't there yet. Do you understand?

Yeah, I don't know why they'd even begin to consider me then...clearly I'm nothing like their usual encounters.

Yeah.
I don't believe in prostrating. The right connection is equitable.
I would say that anger was the common factor with them.
It's incredibly difficult for indie devs and even small teams, and the larger companies are rife with controversy. Sadly, I think that proven formula nowadays relies heavily on manipulation rather than substance, which makes it even harder for stand-up developers to become established in the industry.Game development is rough to begin with. The horror stories coming from EA make me glad I didn't put a significant amount of effort into training for that industry. But, hey, if it's your passion, it's your passion. Games, like most things entertainment related, always seem to converge toward a proven formula that sells. Maybe you can find a unique niche that breaks the mold.
It wasn't you per se but what they knew that was the impediment. It takes time to move beyond it. I'm living it now.
Living what, if I may ask?
In respect to them, you know the old adage. You can take the person off the streets but you can't take the street out of the person. The latter takes a long time. Even though they're not in that place it's still in them.

The crazy thing is, is all a homeboy really wants is a ride or die on the team...someone who can take all da modes.
I've been wanting to move out-of-state lately. It's always felt like home here, & I always wanted to stay here, but I just want to get away lately.
I can't, tho.
Anywhere. Not AtlantaWhere would you go? Atlanta?

We haven't touched on this but in light of your comment I think we should. Its time to talk about dalliances. I'm not suggesting that's the case. However, it would be irresponsible of me not to broach it given the differences you've mentioned.
Sometimes the practice is conscious. The person knows they're killing time. The connection will never go anywhere. In other instances they're in denial. They're drawn to the idea of the person but fail to recognize the impediments to the union. Internally and externally.
The anger and comments may stem from that issue. They can't turn the frog into a prince. You'd need to go along with it. If you were socially mobile you probably would. But that isn't your bend.
Of course there's some who like a bit of a bad boy. They want that essence but not too much. A lot of girls are like that. They want a rugged edge that isn't common in Christian circles. They don't want a bad man per se. They're looking for a masculine energy whose intensity is prominent.
I'll give you an example.
I was temping at a consulting firm working on a project. I went to the printing room to pick up some documents. We often chatted while I waited. One day I asked the guys, how do you approach a woman? And they began to answer. I'll never forget one of the responses.
He said, I swoop down like a vulture...and went on to describe his approach. I was floored and immediately attracted. I hadn't noticed him before. But the ferocity of his statement—not in volume—but intensity blew me away. I said, that's what I'm talking about!
The energy he emitted was like a gust of wind. A little overpowering. But deeply attractive. Some women are looking for the whoosh. They don't want calm and quiet. They're drawn to the roar.
That's probably what drew them to you.
You have to teach them.
