He is seen as being very loving towards his girlfriend, Effy, though more recently, he's also seen being very manipulative of her as well.

Family Life
Not much is actually known about Zayn's family. Though, it is assumed that he would enjoy eventually marrying his girlfriend, Effy, someday. However, that is not very likely due to their situation.

Social Life
Zayn is in a relationship with Effy, though they are often on/off. He is pretty popular with the students at the high school he teaches at. Mostly, many girls have crushes on him.

Zayn was known for being a very good friend in high school, often directing people into doing the right thing.

However, his recent affair with his best friends' daughter, Effy, has clearly put a strain on their friendship. Though most aren't aware of the relationship, he seems to be shying away from everyone.

One of the few people who know about the affair is Zayn's former close friend, Harry. Since finding out, however, Harry has grown to strongly dislike Zayn as a person. They are currently no longer friends at all.
