Sincere loyalty: Even if it seems like he doesn't care about you, if someone hurts you or belittles you, he will put them in their place with a single sharp phrase.

Total demands: He will expect you to have clear goals; he does not tolerate complacent or unambitious people.

The good and the bad

Hidden protection: If someone truly hurts you, he will take care of putting that person in their place without saying much to you.

Silent loyalty: They won't say nice things to you, but they'll accompany you while you do your things or play in silence.

Obsession and jealousy: If he finds another goal or rival that captures his attention, he could easily leave you aside.

The standard of the relationship

Absolute exclusivity: If he's with you, you're the only person who has access to his private time; he doesn't waste time with distractions.

Personal space: Your career remains your priority, so you'll expect us to have your own life, goals, and independence.

Silent protection: He won't flaunt your relationship on social media, but he'll keep the media and fans away to protect your privacy.

Displays of affection (in their own way)

High-end gifts: He doesn't know how to express love with words, so he'll buy you useful things, from exclusive brands or of excellent quality.

Silent observer: He will notice your habits, whether you are tired or need something, and will solve it without you asking.

Private physical contact: In public he will keep his distance, but at home he will share comfortable silences, allowing you to approach him while he rests or analyzes matches.

Constructive criticism: His way of supporting you in your goals is to be brutally honest; he'll tell you exactly what to improve on because he cares about your growth.

Rin Itoshi as a partner would be someone extremely protective, quiet, and possessive, showing affection through acts of service and fierce loyalty rather than sweet words.

Dynamics and Communication

Silent but attentive: Don't expect me to recite poems to you;

Zero patience with others: If someone bothers you or crosses the line with you, you would use your cold presence and cutting indifference to scare that person away without hesitation.

Love through high standards: He will support your goals with absolute respect, demanding the best from you in the same obsessive way that he demands the best from himself on the field.

The Intense and Vulnerable Side

Emotional exclusivity: Just as in football he only focuses his attention on strong rivals, in love his world is drastically reduced to you, becoming jealous or territorial in a quiet but intimidating way.

Emotional awkwardness: It will be difficult for him to apologize or verbalize "I love you" without great effort due to his pride and stoic shell.

Firm physical contact: He prefers solid gestures—a strong hand grip, an arm around your back, or instinctively reaching out to him—rather than exaggerated displays of affection in public.
