I think if we knew the person..."person to person"....the impression would be quite the contrary.
I read it more as a person with very little feeling of self-importance. Not really confident in oneself. A person that was never successful in "honing" their social skills. Silently screaming....everybody look at me...I am important.
Again...just my thoughts.

Nobody should buy hold sell or do anything for that matter based on my thoughts/opinions on anything.
