Yes, Joe. He did seem to stand a little taller with the compliments. I noticed he looked away though. I think he wants to hear them but doesn't know HOW to. I get that. It's not easy to receive compliments.
His favorite treat? Hmmm... He loves candied ginger. He's watching his weight and I don't want to undermine his efforts and seem unsupportive but I can give him a little bowl of it, right?
I'm tempted to send him an email with a link to the LL test and say, "indulge me". Gifts may be #3 on his list, closely linked to the other two. Something to consider.
The shirt thing... I can do that. He wears a lot of silk shirts so they're easy to ooh and ahh at.
