one thing about dex is that he always needs to be touching you in some way, he's big on skin-on-skin contact.
it could be him rubbing circles on your thigh when he's sitting next to you, holding your hand when you're cooking, or just coming home from work and collapsing on top of you.
feeling your soft skin under his calloused fingertips is one of the few things that calms him down, he's not sure how simply touching you can ground him so much, but it does.
there are times when it can be overwhelming, like when you're sleeping and hes just always cuddled up to you. you could be heating up and scooting away from him because he runs like a furnace, and he would chase you to the end of the bed, wrapping his arms around your waist and burying his face in the crook of your neck. feeling you shifting away from him during the night hurts his feelings too, he thinks maybe you don't want him touching you because you're losing feelings, when in reality he's literally making you sweat :(
this also goes for sex. he hates doggy because it's not enough contact for him, he prefers prone bone over that, but missionary is his favorite because he can hold your hands and keep eye contact with you when he fucks into you
he's also very big on sleeping naked!! he lovesss having no boundaries between the two of you, it makes him feel so safe when you hold him completely bare, him pressed up against your tits while your heartbeat lulls him to sleep.
he doesn't care if you're out in public either. he'll twirl your hair around his finger, keep a hand in your back pocket, or just crowd up against you so you have to be touching him. he doesn't care about the stares he gets, he worked so hard to be with you, so why would he shy away from PDA?
but if you don't like excessive touching, he won't push it. he's too afraid of you leaving him, so he'll do anything you ask in order to keep the relationship, even if it makes him sad!
