[Dave doesn't want to be near him. Jake is trying his best but it's hard not to see his limits. Roxy loves him but the old guilt is coming back to him. Why would anyone want to be near Dirk? Why would anyone want to comfort him? How could anyone tolerate him when Dirk can't even tolerate himself?]
I don't want to make you uncomfortable.
