Shiv

Shiv is a person that can be suicidal and shit after someone precious to him leaves him but in the end he is fine, he is mostly a pretty goofy but good friend, he can be serious at times but keeps the fun wherever you go, he won’t chat with his family members as much as he does with friends, he likes to play games and socialise, he also is a ambivert. Plus he after some while respects you for whatever you are. He can be a good ladies man, he can 😏
