17. What are his turn-ons? Turn-offs? Weird bedroom habits?
I like to think if he ever thinks past kissing, he would like really hearing his partner, and a lot of touching. Turn-offs would be bringing up anything serious or frightening. Weird bedroom habits.... do you mean nonexistent bedroom habits? I can't even hypothetically think about this.
