Character Description
Very little is known about Patty's mysterious ex-fiance, Mark. While it's been hinted several times that Patty is bad at intimate relationships, it wasn't until the final chapter of To Thine Own Self... that she opened up to Dexter about her engagement and failed wedding. According to her, on the day before their wedding Patty "did something very stupid. Naive, careless, cruel, and stupid." As a consequence, her fiance broke off the engagement, leaving Patty standing at the altar for eight hours, humiliated and ashamed. This mysterious act has tainted every relationship she's had since, perhaps to the point where she subconsciously sabotages them before they reach a critical state. Although Dexter has shown an obvious interest in her, she has repeated pushed him away, keeping him at arm's length.
