When you put your hand on a hot stove and it burns.
When you eat somehing it tasty and it feels good.
Your brain creates an association between action and result, as cause and effect. These associations will influence your future actions.
Similarly, people learn how to act socially through trial and error, learning not to do things that render negative results. When making a mistake, a faux pas, the subject's brain draws a cause -> effect association, they predict out of their own experience what would happen were they to repeat that same behavior.
But there are factors outside your recent behaviour that affect results.
An ugly male fails every single one of his attempts at acquiring a female's sexual attention, in each case of rejection, each case that he is ignored or received negative feedback, his brain will associate his behavior with the failure.
You've probably felt this process, have you ever stayed up at night overthinking your interactions? That's part of it.
Eventually his adds up, and now the ugly male lives in a constant state of contraction, no possible action or expression is without a linked consistent history of failure. To an outsider this may seem benign, but inside the subject's brain it is a brutal struggle of which the survival of his genes depend on.
