A person (Not always named Duncan), usually male who you will most likely encounter early on in life. He will protect and nurture those he cares for and will attempt to make people feel safe and comfortable in his presence. Duncan's are usually shy and lacking in confidence but are overwhelmingly intelligent and loving once they get to know you. They are affectionate and more often than not, will be too timid to engage in socializing with those they love or care for. Duncan's will tend to be quiet and contemplative, constantly observing and thinking. They must be kept hold of at all costs when found as Duncan's are rare and most of the time will only be noticed by people much later in their life, typically when in other relationships.

Duncan (Gaelic) = Dark-Skinned Warrior

Most amazing guy you could ever meet and once you meet him you better hold on to him. He will be shy at first but then you will look into his eyes and slowly fall in love and then it will stick with you. There is no stopping the love it's just there and will stay there for a long time.

Honestly it's hard not to tell him anything but you stay quite because your worried if you say anything you will lose him and don't want that to happen
He is just amazing i bet he's a Duncan

"A Duncan" is the person that you fall in love with,early on in life.Your first love. Every new partner is measured by Duncan's standards.

Obviously, one rarely ends up with one's Duncan as a life partner. However until one is thoroughly over "Duncan" one cannot move on.

Even though "Duncan" is a male name, your "Duncan" can be whichever sex your first love belonged to.

Sometimes, it can take a great many years to realise that someone was your Duncan, but once the realisation has been made, one can start to come to terms with the reality that they probably weren't all that special, and most likely are nothing special at all *now*

In other circumstances, the Duncan relationship may not have worked out becuase your Duncan was a closet homosexual, yet was completely perfect for you in every other way.
