I don't think he can. I think that's why he has to slide into Twitter DMs because he cannot function IRL.

I think she was probably enthralled with him because here's this, like you said, his reputation at that point was still very high. People thought of him as this Tony Stark type figure, this brilliant tech guy, right? He's this amazing person building the future. He was an environmentalist.
