Explaining ronan

Ronan is a very special person. He is kind, he is positive, he is supportive, he is loving and he is absolutely beautiful.

He is a person that is like a butterfly, other people can see his beautiful and amazing colors but he never really sees it the way others do. He never thinks he is beautiful even though he always is.

When Ronan trusts you, do not ruin this. Sometimes he has a hard time trusting people in a short term. But once he does, you are a very special person to him. He will most likely give you the second chance you don’t deserve when you mess it up but that’s the way he is.

If it comes to love, he is very careful. He loves to be loved. And even though he never really says it, he needs love and affection.

At the moment he actually says that he is in love with you or that he loves you. He really does. And at the moment you give him your heart, he will be so careful with it and he wouldn’t do anything to break it.
Explaining ronan is very hard because he is too special
