His standards were not impossibly high. He didn't think he'd find The One in just one try but he didn't want to go through girls like tissue. Besides, he needed to work through his dislike of being touched first. It wasn't like people were going to hurt him just by touching him.

Maybe it was hypocritical. He took a deep breath then placed an arm around the girl's shoulders, gently leaning on her which was kind of awkward considering how short she was.
