[2011-2015] Xyla’s ex-boyfriend and first love, Christopher Price, was her high-school sweetheart. They’d met in the 10th grade after being paired up as partners in history class which eventually developed into something more. As much as she wishes their story was happy and full of love, it was incredibly rocky and was off more than it was on. For the next 2 years of high school, he and Xy would often be seen arguing in staircases one minute and then making out the next. Her friends tried to convince her to break up with him and move on from the drama, but she was only 17 and thought these were the ‘good and bad’ times that all couples endured. After months of arguing they were finally okay again. They both ended up at NUY together where their relationship remained to be an on-again off-again mess for another two years before finally blowing up when she found him in bed with another girl, a girl that Xyla had suspicions about for the last 6 months of their relationship. Xyla finally cut ties with him, threw all his stuff off her balcony and never answer another phone call or text message from him again.

It’s been years since she last saw Chris but because of their rocky relationship, Xyla doesn’t have much faith in love or dating. Instead, Xyla enjoys single life and lives freely, without restrictions. These days short flings, one night stands and friends with benefit relationships are more her thing. She claims that ‘they’re just easier,’ and that she ‘doesn’t want to be tied down to a man’ but in reality, Xyla just doesn’t want to find herself in another exhausting relationship. Although she’d never admit it, Xyla really just wants to have that one person in her life that she can love and trust completely, someone to call her own.

-Chris Pearce Jr. ( 2007): Chris was Maiah’s first real boyfriend. They started dating when she was thirteen, but they had known each other since she was a child. Looking back on their relationship, it was very unhealthy. He didn’t really respect her at all and would constantly belittle her and her hobbies. Eventually Maiah became tired of his antics and broke up with him but he never really left out of her life, because her mother ended up dating and marrying his father.

-Keaton Eisley ( October 2012 - March 2013): Keaton was a brief romance and she met him not too long after she moved to New York. It was during her relationship with him that she realized she was demisexual. It was pretty much only a physical relationship and she had never really built much of a relationship with him outside of that. Because of that, it didn’t last long before Maiah broke up with him, realizing that wasn’t the only thing she wanted in a relationship.

-Declan Parrish (September 2014 - December 2016): She met Declan her freshman year of college and they ended up having a lot of the same interests. They were even involved in a few clubs around campus together and joined a gaming league. They didn’t date until she was a junior in college though. It was Maiah’s first serious relationship, but she was never truly happy in it and neither was Declan. It just felt like they were dating each other, just because it seemed right, but there was something missing in their relationship. Their relationship progressed though and just before they were about to make a big commitment and move in with each other, he cheated on her with someone he met on a game. Even though, there was something missing in that relationship, she was still pretty crushed by that breakup.

-Teddy Robbins (October 2018): Maiah met Teddy while she was still in a relationship with Declan and honestly found him to be insufferable, but she was always attracted to him. Throughout the years, Maiah kept running into Teddy all around the city on complete accident and eventually they began to talk. Well more like bicker with each other. The bickering soon turned to friendship and before she knew it she actually liked hanging out with him. She really doesn’t know when she can say that they fell in love, but after they both confessed their feelings for each other, they never went back from there. She can admit that their relationship has moved pretty fast with a pregnancy and engagement all within the first five months, but this is the most complete she felt in a romantic relationship.
