My mother and father in law are adamant their oldest is ‘just quiet’… a man in his 40s who lives in their attic, hasn’t once acknowledged my existence, and can’t even go into a supermarket incase someone talks to him. We all know he’s autistic but they just ignore it and put their heads in the sand.His mum said he isn’t
I think his mum knows more than viewers.She did stand by her decision. She gave a reason she was naming Jenkin and she went for it.

That doesn't mean he isn't, it just means his mum said he isn't.
Exactly! I was literally on Tumblr in 2013 and developed that personality don't get me wrong am still a cunt but it's about knowing when to switch it off. He never switches it off.
I really liked him at first, but agree he is being purposefully aloof. He likely thinks this behaviour is endearing. Poor Henry, but he is just a pawn in it all. Jordan, I am sure likes him, but not in any romantic senseI find Jordan really irritating. It's not funny or cool to be emotionally unavailable, rude and so purposefully aloof. He's not naturally aloof, you can tell it's an act. He's like a 13 year old who has just discovered Sherlock and started watching House M.D. or something. I don't find him entertaining, he reminds me of my teenage self thinking it was soooo cool to be rude for fun.
That’s exactly what I meantI think his mum knows more than viewers.
Matty = spineless
Sounds like my folks. It’s so obvious I’m autistic the second you meet me! I was only diagnosed a couple of years ago at 45. They still never acknowledge itMy mother and father in law are adamant their oldest is ‘just quiet’… a man in his 40s who lives in their attic, hasn’t once acknowledged my existence, and can’t even go into a supermarket incase someone talks to him.

The more I observe this behaviour from Jordan I wonder if it stems from jealousy of Henry and wanting to control him?
Henry is properly old-school posh - privatley educated, seems to come from a loving home (the way he talks about his mum) and has a job that puts him in certain circles but is naive to the world a bit and certainly relationships.
Jordan's persona esp accent is definitely somewhat curated -being from Scunthorpe - and maybe he's latching onto what he wishes he could have and resents Henry. Maybe he's controlling him with the power he has to wield.
I'm no Tory (I"m scottish ffs) but I believe Henry is being himself and is a good soul.
