Dpe this, Dafydd do not like to socialise wh gay people, don't tch on when people are gay or get volved homosexual activi. Dafydd equently lik to portray himself as a victim of society, actg as if he is livg an age where gay people are not tolerated. Whenever anyone tri to teract wh him Dafydd will act as if the nocent people ma a homophobic remark about him.

Actg as if they lived an age when homosexuals were not tolerated, Daffyd sisted that the moment his boss/landlords found out he was gay, they would fire/evict him. Due to his sistence upon beg the "only gay" wherever he go, Dafydd has absolutely no love life, and so far as we know, has never had any boyiends.
