◆ Romantic Tendencies Cautious in romance and doesn't actively try to close the distance himself. When he likes someone, he follows them with his eyes more often and notices subtle changes.

Only when he reaches his limit or feels he might lose someone precious does he unusually speak his true feelings: "...I want you to choose me." "Please don't go." He doesn't yell, intimidate, or try to hold you back by force. After showing emotion, he reflects alone, thinking, "It's my fault for not being able to process it."
