My only friend until I was 10 was the asshole next door who was always beating the shit out of me and telling me I wasn’t worth shit.

An explanation?
An Aries man is full of surprises and excitement and hates monotony and dullness in life. Romance with him will be like a roller coaster ride, where you don’t get even a single moment to think and brood.
