This is Ralph’s conundrum. If Faith and May didn’t have supportive middle class parents he might be living in a polycule in Richmond. His problem was the naive teen and the mentally stunted pedo both had an out if they got tired of his psycho fat ass. Ralph needed a damaged, insecure woman with zero support network, no family who gives a fuck and no options other than him.He’s hoping to trap the next poor girl with zero self esteem after Grace rejected him
Alice could be a good example of this. But the problem with women like Alice is they usually have some street smarts, see Gunt for what he is, and have survival instincts. They would abandon Gunt at the first whiff of a better deal. A younger poor dirtbag without a pannus, or an old fat guy with some money, either will win over Ralph every time.
Ralph basically needs a woman with no viable exit strategy. Even domestic violence shelters pose an existential threat to his relationships.
