What a long strange trip it's been

OT,

Just debating the point - I actually don't agree that emailing the person necessarily is like going and having lunch with a guy in a troubled M; there is no physical contact, and if you saw the content of the emails they aren't personal to us/between us as such.....it's more like Doc emails when he needs a kick up the proverbial to keep him on track. Plus, he doesn't only email females.....I can see the list the emails have gone to and there are guys on there too.

I think sometimes there are things that he panics about and he goes to auto mode and just reaches out for help to some of us....and we tell him what we think - generally the poor guy gets lambasted and then comes on here and discusses it.

I DO understand your concerns, and if there was anything EA like in the emails.....if they were personal to the person he was sending them to.....I don't think he would get a response from those that he emails.

Everyone has there own way with dealing with things, and I think in a way some of us are a sort of 'comfort blanket' to him AT THIS MOMENT IN TIME.

He is so near to cracking his W's inhibitions and attitudes and has come such a long way, really IMO, with Doc, thie risk of an EA arising is highly unlikely. I know I certainly wouldn't put my M at risk for such a thing.
