Andrews ex-girlfriend was emotionally and physically abusive towards him. Though he’s now in a healthy relationship with you, he’s carried his trauma along with him.

Andrew got up and grabbed a cup from the cupboard when you asked him for one. Before he handed it to you, he accidentally dropped the glass on the floor.

“Shit! I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean to.” He says frantically, trying to pick up the shattered glass with his bare hands. You can practically see the panic shoot through him.
