I think the biggest problem for joe and those in the same position as him is not having a live in the flesh woman who cares about him to give him the reassurance that he needs. I don't remember if he has ever had a girlfriend or wife. It doesn't sound like it. Until that happens he's always going to have the doubts about whether he will be laughed at or rejected. Unfortunately to get to that point he has to make the leap of faith.
