Oh but I'm sure Edgeworth does not have any of those.

soodonim: Of course not. He's a perfectly well adjusted young man

Miles why your fear of intimacy

arashiko: mostly his fixation on perfection

Under the cocky attitude he has a rather fragile ego

and when people get close, that's when they see just how flawed you really are

all your mistakes, all your quirks and foibles, everything

Though there's a few other reasons, as well

He grew up with a lot of doubts over his role in his father's death, which led to the development of a rather secretive personality

Also, von Karma wasn't the most... affectionate guardian

So when he was young, he developed kind of a sour grapes attitude towards affection

"Well it's not like I need that sort of thing anyway, so there."

And last but not least.... he's just not used to close relationships. Which means he doesn't know how to deal with them

And the more you don't know about something the more likely you are to make a mistake

He can't have that. Nope.

CAN'T FAIL AT SOMETHING IF YOU DON'T EVEN TRY

....and something I thought of after a bit of thought: when people get close to you, they begin to have certain expectations

and he has no idea how to fulfill those

they also start to ask awkward questions, too

anyway I hope this wordvomit entertained you
