Doesn't seem to hinder him when it comes to the GETTING partbut, it sure kicks in when it comes to the KEEPING part!
I ascribe that to the TV-show aspects. In real life, I don't think someone like that would be GETTING, either. Except I guess for real desperate clingers or something. -

I think there are two possibilities:
- The writers don't know how to write a girlfriend character for Raj, or how to come up with an interesting eighth main character, to fit in with the "Friends" type direction the show has gone in. Or:
- They want to keep Raj single, as a representative of what the show used to be. This way they can use him for situations that require an unattached character.
Or maybe a female-Raj-type (kind of the way Amy was to Sheldon, early on)
They kinda sorta tried doing this with Lucy, she had some deep emotional social issues to overcome. But her character didn't gel and there was no chemistry there. Mainly, she was just annoying.

I'd say this is proof positive BBT writers need to stop listening to the fans. We hear whine after whine about the guys getting girlfriends, and now someone is whining that Raj hasn't gotten one.

Then why doesn't Raj have a long term gf? Even the most neurotic character ever has one.
As I said to someone else on the thead, he's had several. Not a longe term one, yes, but not everyone on earth winds up matches like animals on Noah's Ark anyway. Why does Raj have to?
