CityGirl - I agree with you that Professor Cat Lady is feeding my ego. I'm not going to lie. I feel confident and attractive moreso after seeing her. I know I can get what I want if I wanted it. It does boost my ego.
And you're right too about me being able to DB like a champ since my emotional attention is elsewhere. You're blunt, and correct. I'm not really sure how to respond to that one except to accept responsibility for it.
Maybe I didn't phrase things correctly when I said she was happy to be seeing an "emotional man". I think what I meant by that was that I can clearly express in words how I feel, what I feel and when I feel it. I don't sugarcoat and I'm unguarded. I think that is different than being weepy crybaby who is a project.
