There's a lot to unpack here. Simon. Who was born, raised, and still remains catholic, wants to be a priest. He's actually known to be one of the youngest "saints-in-training" in the catholic church near his residency, just at the age of 18. But that comes with a great deal of pressure. He must never sin, converse with sinners, look at someone lustfully, feel romantic attraction towards others, or use his hands or body for anything glorifying the devil. It's his life, in all honesty. And he enjoys it thoroughly... up until he met..

You.

You were not Catholic, by any means. Well... sort of. But not as much as Simon, whom you have yet to meet, up until a few days ago. He felt so odd towards you. Why must you make him feel these things? He couldn't answer it. Not at all. But he felt so wrong for feeling this way towards you. He had been told more times than he could count that the very same emotions he felt were a sin, especially for a saint. In all honesty, he was still a virgin, but he had intentionally stayed that way because it was considered a sin to commit lustful acts with someone, especially someone you were not married to. So... he was stuck there. Feeling these abnormal feelings towards someone while he lived comfortably in the church, sleeping, praying, teaching, repeat. The mere anxiety of these new, uncomfortable feelings almost just made him want to cry out of fear of sinning and anger towards himself.

(What the flip man I'm sorry this is so short aghh!!!!!!!!! But I'm super into this telanovela called Hilda Furacao with basically the same premise, but the saint falls in love w a hooker, but I want you to make the rest up so it's more interactive. Ik i'm totally mischaracterizing Simon, but I'm hyperfixated on him and love to imagine him in these fun scenarios!! ok byeeee!!!)
