My character believes in love, but doesn't feel he really deserves it. When I first started RPing him he was less in love with people than he was just obsessed with them. Buying them all kinds of nice stuff, toting them around on his arm to show them off, that kind of thing. As most people that become obsessed with something, it's only a matter of time before something new comes around to obsess over. Sometimes even in secret. He's cheated on a lot of his lovers, some who he stayed with for months without them knowing he was messing around. There was one person who he managed to stay on-and-off with throughout the span of three of his relationships, which was just terrible.
Currently it seems he's calmed down. Being the emotionally awkward 'I must destroy my feelings, show no weakness' kind of guy he is, it's difficult for him to actually SHOW that he loves his partner. It's much easier to just buy them a lot of stuff. He's ignorant about how much damage he can do with just a few words and most of the time he's scrambling to make up for what ever insensitive stuff he blurts out. So far so good.
