Meaning of 懐に入れた人間


I've come across the expression 懐に入れた人間 a couple of times in texts describing
(male) characters, e.g. 一度懐に入れた人間はとことん甘やかしてしまう, but I don't quite understand
what it means. "Once he thinks dearly of someone, he will pamper that person a
lot"?




There is an idiom "懐に入る", which means "to gain someone's trust and favor". For
example, 彼女は人の懐に入るのがうまい. So 懐に入れた人間 means "person whom I trust and like".
