A great listener, he'd be sipping his drink politely and nodding while someone would be chatting away to him.
At one party, early on in our relationship, I dragged him on to the dance floor with me, and he looked utterly terrified. He swayed his hips awkwardly, his arms hanging limp beside him, and within seconds he'd disappeared back to the corner of the room.
