[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 458076, member: 2211"] I think it is p/a behavior. Here's the thing about H: he isn't 100% a grown up I don't think. He's relied on his dad as his go to person and now his sister is. He doesn't trust himself. He is a workaholic and a person who stopped drinking alcohol. I hesitate to call him a recovering alcoholic because he never worked a recovery program...instead he's stumbled through all the changes and difficulties that comes with stopping any addiction. His work is an addiction but it also causes him great stress so any further requests cause him to have that immediate reaction of 'No' or in this case 'Why'. I don't want to give the impression that he's like a little boy all other times because he's not. He's responsible and intelligent and all that good stuff you want an adult man to be. I also think he is still getting over his fathers death because he seems to be a bit self centered since then. I think it was a real shock for him. Thanks for all the feedback. [/QUOTE]
