Name: Reid Wainwright

What do they look for in a person?:
I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY, BUT I CAN GUESS. Reid needs someone who will push him, get him out of his comfort zone, who doesn't treat him with kid gloves, etc. Get under his skin, tease him, yell at him, embarrass him. Reid's tough and will push back, and he really needs that push and pull to stay attentive. A lot of people handle him very gently and try to be patient with him, which is lovely and he appreciates it, but it also doesn't inspire any strong emotions. It's the fastest way to get friendzoned... but honestly but 9/10 paths with Reid get you friendzoned.

What do they find romantic?:
Uh. Not much. Reid doesn't go in for romance, unsurprisingly. I think he finds people who take a real interest in him and who are willing to help him to be the closest thing to romantic. He also finds roughhousing and bickering to be signs of affection. When he's being annoying/lazy/stubborn and the other person gets mad-but-not-really-mad... that's fun for him.

Who do they have a crush on?: Sy and Ty kind-of-not-really. But Sy pushes him like Reid wants, and Ty is a really good kisser. The word "crush" has to be used loosely in both cases. He's considered a lot of people in his meandering through the wasteland that is his interest in romance. Those people are Rosy, Ursula, Roxie, and Levi.

Are they seeing someone right now?: No.

What are they like in a relationship?:
It's like dating a block of wood. It's hard. He gives very little emotional feedback, and seems uninterested a lot. He's either passive to the point of seeming bored, or he's unpleasantly stubborn. It's a lot of effort for low returns. This is largely because he just gets into relationships because it seems like something he should try or someone is bold and pursues him, but it's proven difficult for him to reciprocate. He's not big on PDA either and is physically dispassionate. He's not asexual, so he'll go for hook ups and making out, although this year he's been losing interest in that. He's had a lot on his mind, and it's just not a priority.

But I think if he ever found someone to click with, he'd be more proactive. He does like to joke around and tease when he's content, and he'd be more likely to try and express himself. He loves play fighting and intentionally being annoying or pretending to be dense to get a reaction.

Anything else?: Reid is two hairs short of aromantic. He's probably never going to settle down and instead live as a swan in Sy's backyard,
