The best way to start a conversation with a woman is to compliment their breasts.

Or you can comment that the coffee is disgusting.

1: Leroy is not a pervert
1.2: I would probably be more likely to slap whoever said that then have a conversation about it if someone if they said that to me (And I'm a girl.)
2: He's not drinking coffee......

I think I have an idea, though.

A question from somebody who hasn't paid much attention to media with yandere characters, how do those relationships generally form in fiction?

That all depends.

I read a shitload of manga and the most common thread I've seen when it comes to yanderes is they tend to be a childhood friend of the character they love.

Is there generally some rationale for why a character is "yandere", or is the idea of exploring how a character become yandere generally ignored or suggested to be an in-born trait?

Usually there is. Some are more in depth than others, but it usually has to do with some deep connection with the character they love and they're afraid to let that connection go. Thus they view someone else being together in a relationship with said character in an extremely negative light.

Looking at the TV Tropes "Playing With" page for Yandere, their "Justified" section for it, I noticed that your explanation was one of the first. Have you ever seen the other two explanations done with frequency, or is that uncommon?

"Bob is a Manipulative Bastard who passes himself off as a nice guy, and maybe even honestly believes he is one. Over the course of his relationship with Sally, he's gotten her to center her entire life around him, which has in turn caused her to become a Clingy Jealous Girl. Then Bob—possibly oblivious to the fact that he ought to have expected this outcome—dumps her for Alice because Sally's become a Clingy Jealous Girl."

"Sally is a psychopath and a narcissist. As result, she needs to feel loved to maintain her high self-esteem. Bob is the only person who loves her as much as he did and because of this, she is willing to go to insane lengths to keep him all to herself."

The last one isn't actually that rare either. There's quite a bit of them that are simply insane and don't have a background that led them to have those feelings of narcissism.

Actually, the answer would be yes if you weren't kind of in the middle of interacting with Scam's character.
