No he didn't have any of that in his past life, he mentioned that he didnt want somebody in his life that could be used as his weakness (aka hurt or kidnap those people to take advantage of him) he also mentioned that he didnt even want to have "sexual" relationships or flings with others because he believed that feelings can also develop just by having "sex" or flings with other people. That explains why he isn't "familiar" or inexperienced in love or expressing his feelings to other people.

Tbh, when I read the novel...I kept cringing at Tess’s actions maybe cause they’re 13 or 14 around the time Tess wanted to be with Arthur. In the other world, Arthur says he was around 30-40 years old and it doesn’t sit right with him to even look at her that way cause duh he sees her as too young. I get his sentiment which is why I don’t ship them at all. This novel/webtoon doesn’t even need the romance. I just wanna see Arthur in his journey to becoming the best quad-elemental mage out there.
