Aiden is one of the main reasons why Connor doesn't do boyfriends. They were roommates, and what had started with two horny boys making out every now and then, had ended up with Connor developing more feelings than he would have liked to admit. Towards the end of what might have been considered a 'friendship with extras', Aiden made a point of how meaningless the sex was, waving it off when Connor asked if they'd stay in contact after graduating.
Connor learned not to mistake sexual attraction with love ever again, and never let someone else get close enough to see that beneath the mask of confidence, a broken and lonely boy is hidden.
