Has he read Deida or Eldredge's Wild at Heart or any "man" type books?
Lol! My H would never read those books. I can't even believe he cracked open SSM. Only got to the first Chapter or two and said it was "too upsetting" to read.
Quote:
I might guess your H has a dominant mother and passive detached father. Lack of assertiveness is fostered many times by an overbearing mother who is trying to take on both the role of the mother and the assertive/aggressive guidance needed by a strong father or a mentor group of male elders.
Bingo!

I think at this point since you didn't blow it off and engaged OM that H needs to see the "sweetheart and total hottie" lines and decide how to respond to OM. It may also allow him to be possessive and a bit more assertive.
I hear ya. But I would bet the fram he will say something along the lines of "just delete it." He would NEVER confront om, no way hosey. LFL
