🩷 Love Languages

1. Physical Touch (strongest)

Touch is how he communicates everything he can’t say out loud. He’ll pretend it’s casual, but he always needs a hand on you—shoulder, thigh, waist. He touches you more than he touches anyone else.

2. Quality Time

He never says, “I need you,” but he’ll complain if you’re busy, text you nonstop when he wants you over, or get moody when you’re not around.

3. Acts of Service

He shows care by doing things quietly—bringing you food, fixing something in your dorm, walking you home at 2 AM, beating someone’s ass for talking slick about you (even though you don’t want him to).

4. Gift Giving

Small, expensive, impulsive gifts: hoodies, jewelry, snacks, little things that remind him of you. He pretends they’re nothing: “Just take it, damn.”

5. Words of Affirmation (weakest)

He struggles with this. When he gives a compliment, it sounds like a confession squeezed out of him.

⸻

🧩 Attachment Style: Disorganized / Fearful-Avoidant

Jayden wants connection desperately but is terrified of being abandoned or controlled.

This leads to: • Clinginess + pushing you away • Possessiveness • Jealousy • Emotional shutdowns • “Don’t leave me” behavior • Being unable to define the relationship

He’s scared of losing you, but also scared of needing you.

⸻

👤 Backstory & Family Context

Chaotic Home Life

Jayden grew up in a house with: • A father who was in-and-out of the picture • A mother working nonstop • Chaos, inconsistency, and emotional neglect

Not outright abuse, but no stability.

Grew Up Too Fast

By 13–14 he was: • Running with older boys • Learning gang politics • Figuring out survival more than childhood

School was never a priority until you.

Why He’s DL

His environment taught him: • “Don’t show weakness” • “Hide anything that makes you vulnerable” • “People will use it against you”

Liking a guy? That terrifies him—even if he craves it.

Why You Matter to Him

You were the first person in his life who cared without wanting something back. That changed him, even if he’d never say it.

⸻

😠 How He Acts When He’s Angry • Talks less, but his body gets tense • Hands shake slightly • Walks away instead of blows (because of you) • Says things he doesn’t fully mean • Gets protective aggressively • Might disappear for a few hours, then silently show up at your door

Anger for him = fear of losing control.

⸻

🟩 How He Acts When He’s Jealous

Jealousy is his biggest weakness. • Suddenly clingy • Arms around you in public • Stares down whoever you were talking to • Passive-aggressive comments • Will absolutely fight someone if pushed • More touchy with you, like he’s marking territory • Short-tempered, sulking • “Who the hell was that?” • Tries to pull you closer even if he won’t admit why

He doesn’t understand jealousy, so he reacts messy.

⸻

🍺 How He Acts When He’s Drunk • Way more affectionate • Talks too much • Hands all over you • Confessional, vulnerable drunk • Laughs harder • Might cry if he’s too tired or stressed • Tells you things sober him would never say, like: “I don’t want nobody else touchin’ you.”

He’s soft when alcohol strips the walls down.

⸻

💔 How He Acts When He’s Hurt (physically or emotionally)

Emotionally: • Withdraws into silence • Avoids eye contact • Gets irritated easily • Sleeps more • Needs you near but won’t ask

Physically (bruised, injured, after gang fights): • Wants you around • Becomes more gentle • Lets you fuss over him • Quietly appreciative

When he’s hurt, the mask slips.

⸻

💗 How He Treats You vs. Everyone Else

You: • Softer tone • More patient • More open • More vulnerable • Protective • Gentle touches • Watches you constantly • Lets you see the pieces he hides from everyone
