Doug's Response

I'll bet you have been wondering how Doug would react to the post about him. I was wondering too! It occurred to me that he may not see the humor, or that it really isn't just about him, but, also men in general. But, have to be honest with you, it was a pretty accurate portrayal, at least in my eyes.

The response:

Doug did find the humor in it! Yea! But, he also said it made him think about whether or not he is critical of women , etc. I think the fact that he actually thought about it shows solid character.

But, the part I like best....Last night during our online discussion, he made a conscious effort to repeatedly turn the conversation in the direction of what is going on in my life. Even when I tried to talk about him, he would call me an enabler (perpetuating his behavior of self talk). I thought that was a man that really paid attention (so few of them out there); plus he delivered the line with great humor (another great trait).

I am so glad he possesses a great sense of humor and humility. We could all learn a lot from Doug.
